It's A Miracle!

Yesterday a miracle transpired.  I'm not making this up -- it happened to me, so I know what I'm talking about.

As previously mentioned, The Mr. and I are going to the gym each weekday morning.  I feel like I've gotten into a real routine: 

1. I toss my runners on the bench
2. I walk to the locker and put my outside shoes on the bottom shelf
3. I hang up my coat in the locker
4. I unzip my right coat pocket and take out the lock and key set
5. I shut the locker door and click the lock shut
6. I take the key out of the end of the lock and place it in my pants pocket
7. I put my runners on and head for the track

Yesterday as I finished step #5 and starting on #6, I realized my key was not in the end of the lock like it always is.  I realized that it must still be in my coat pocket inside the locker.   THE LOCKER THAT I JUST LOCKED!!   At this point I may or may not have started to panic just a little.

I decided to just put on my runners and deal with it later.  As I walked over to the bench (about 4 feet away), I saw my key on the floor under the bench.  

I know what you're thinking.....that the key fell out of the end of the lock on the way over to the locker.  But it couldn't have.  I didn't even unzip my coat pocket until it was already hanging in the locker.  

Amazing!  This was much more than a coincidence.  In fact it even skipped right over "tender mercy" and landed securely in the "miracle" category.  

I believe it was just a gentle reminder from God to let me know that He is in control of my life.  All I have to do is report for duty.
