Yesterday was an interesting one for me. I stayed indoors all day. But I knew I needed to do laundry, so I got ready and went on over to the next building to put money on my card to wash clothes. I had $10 in one pocket and $10 in the other with my keys and phone. I pulled my keys out of my pocket and checked the mail. And headed out the back door. This girl was smiling at me but I don't really pay attention to her. So I walk listening to a song with lyrics like"Jesus you're beautiful to me". And as soon as I got there, I noticed $10 was missing. I knew I immediately dropped it somewhere. And it all comes to me what happened. When I pulled my keys out of my pocket, $10 dollars fell out. I had headphones on and didn't hear it hit the floor. And the girl smiled at me because she may have picked it up. So, as I am realizing all of this, I get infuriated with myself because I felt I was very irresponsible and careless. And as my anger is getting more and more serious, the Lord starts to speak to me letting me know that it's only $10 and that my riches are in heaven, not here.

  1. Wow, as I was reading it I kinda had a feeling the 10 dollars going to fall out just because it always happens to me, I sorry about your lost I would be upset as well. But everytime I lose money, I always think maybe that money was needed for a better purpose or just maybe I need to be more careful lol.
