God had favor upon me
Okay, I had to share this praise! Here's the story. At the football game the other night, I took my credit card out of my wallet b/c I wanted to buy a t-shirt and didn't want to haul my entire wallet/purse into the game. Well, on Sunday I remembered it was in my pants pocket on my way to the van to go to lunch. I got it out and hurried to the van (Ken was in a hurry b/c he had to go to work). I didn't put it in my wallet right away b/c he was waiting on me and we were in separate vehicles. I thought "Oh, I'll just put it in there when we get to the restaurant". Well, you know the rest. I didn't think about it again, until about 5:30 last night. I was checking out at the grocery store and opened up my wallet. Guess what? No credit card. My heart sank. I immediately remembered the last time I saw it was when it was in my lap. LeAnn (my sister-in-law) was with me and she dumped out my purse while I called the restaurant to see if anyone had turned it in. I then went to this restaurant's parking lot to see if it was still on the ground. Then we both turned the van upside down looking for it. When I returned home I checked our online statement and nothing had been charged to the account. That was great news, but still knew it was out there somewhere. After the kids went to bed I again emptied out my purse, my wallet, and looked in the van again. Nothing. This morning I had decided that I was going to look one more time in the van and then call and cancel. I went to look in this compartment above the steering wheel and I accidentally hit the wipers. They start moving and I see something. Guess what? My credit card!! Someone must have found it right beside my van at the restaurant and placed it under the windshield wiper. I still can't believe it. I just wanted to share because we often don't hear about the good and positive things that people do for others. It was an answered prayer!

Oh' my goodness. Losing a credit card is a horrible feeling. Jason does it all the time :) What a relief to find it. We are going to the game. We're going to go stay in OK city again with Jason's cousin. Are ya'll going?
Girl, that sounds like something I would do...I am so thankful you got it back--a true miracle!! Love you and hope you have a great week--Shan
Wow! That's a great story! I know that heart-sinking feeling, too! I've been fortunate enough to be able to find me right away, though.
I am so glad that someone found your card. It is such a pain to have to cancel a card and wait for another one, especially if it is your debit card. I use that one all the time. Thanks for sharing:)
