Lord of the Keys

Just a little God story.

I went out Saturday night to see some friends, and took my bike. When I came to leave I realised I couldn't find my bike key (thankfully I hadn't locked my bike, so I could still get home). I looked everywhere for it, to no avail, including searching the road in the dark on the way home.
This is exactly the kind of little thing that really stresses me. I didn't want to have to spend money on a new bike lock, and I didn't like the idea of someone having my key. So I prayed, and trusted God, and was therefore able to go to sleep calm and in the knowledge that he'd find it for me.
I woke up having dreamt that the key was in the hood of my coat. Not quite believing it, I went to look, and there it was!!! Awesomeness.
I love the fact that God cares about the minute details - and therefore I see how much his love for me is.

Entertainingly I then discovered a friend who'd lost his keys, encouraged him to pray, and now he's found them!

I guess sometimes we forgot that we can take the little things to God, not just big things. He really does care about everything.
