keys

i had a good reminder of the power of prayer.

i have been meaning to write about this for a while now.

but, well... you know. 
my life is caaaa-razy right now.

so here is the story:

the husband and i were house sitting a little while ago and my sister-in-law and i had headed over to the house to check on the pets.

when we got there and turned the car off
the keys refused to come out of the ignition.

the car was off.
it was in park.
but those stubborn keys would NOT come out.


we tried...over and over and over.
we tried everything.
no luck.

we ended up being able to park the car in the garage 
{as we could not lock the car without the keys...duh}

then came the problem.
the next day the husband and i were going to a baptism.
we were trying to figure out what to do because we couldn't both go inside leaving the keys in the car.

we both had to get clothes for the baptism from our apartment...
i went in first and the husband sat in the car on key duty.

i changed and went back to car.
there was husband, walking toward the doors.

keys-in-hand!
i couldn't believe he had gotten them free.

i asked him how he did it..

with a grin he said
"i said a prayer and they just...came out"

all i could do was smile back.

thank you for the reminder darlin'
