Angel

       Today I went out to lunch with my friend Michelle. When we were standing in line to buy our food, I pulled out my ID card because that is where my money is. I gave the cashier my card as I was checking out and then me and Michelle went to go find a place to sit. As we were finishing up our meal, I realized I could not find my ID card! I looked in every pocket of my jeans, my coat, my backpack, I retraced my steps and was looking all over the floor for it. As I was looking I said a quick little prayer in my mind that I would be able to find my ID card. With no luck I decided to go ask the cashier if someone had possibly turned in a lost ID card. She said no one had and so I sadly walked out of the cafe and Michelle said, "Are you sure you wanna leave? We can keep looking because you don't want to have to buy another ID card." And as she said this I had a flicker of a thought come into my head that my ID card would turn up and not to worry about it. So we left to go to our next class and right before class started I went to go use the restroom. As I was taking my backpack off to put it on the little hook on the back of the stall door, my ID card fell onto the tiled bathroom floor. I stood there for at least ten seconds in complete shock, trying to register what just happened. How on earth did it just fall? And second...where did it fall from?? I had looked everywhere for it earlier and it wasn't there! It was almost as if someone had placed it in between my backpack and my coat as I was walking to my class. And I honestly believe that an angel put it there, a guardian angel looking out for me and helping me with little things such as a lost ID card. Today I was apart of a little miracle and I am so grateful that I have the power of prayer in my life.
