I've been whining for the last few weeks about my glasses. I lost them somehow, somewhere and I have been glasses-less ever since. It hasn't been good because I have been leaning forward in my chair to read my computer, squinting when reading, I haven't been able to see Pastor Ed properly when sitting in church, see the tv, read road signs from distance.. the list goes on. I searched EVERYWHERE for these glasses and to no avail. I was convinced that I left them in the church library and I checked the library regularly on the off chance that someone may have found them and put them somewhere. No such luck.
I prayed. I searched. I prayed some more. I gave up. I started to accept the loss. I took my glasses case out of my handbag. I started looking into doing my Private Health Insurance (something I have neglected for a while now) with the hope of being able to eventually get a new pair of specs. I started to tell myself that maybe my eyes would turn normal without the glasses....
And then today, after Evangelism Prayer Group, as I was walking out of the room, I noticed a familiar-looking shape on the wall-thing. No, could it be? I got closer and whoa! It was my glasses!! Thank God!! I was so happy. I gave them a quick wipe and I haven't taken them off since (except for when I showered hehe). God is awesome! It's funny because He only chose to let me find them when I had given up hope. His timing is mysterious sometimes, but always perfect.

I too wear glasses, and I'm blind as a bat without 'em. Losing your glasses is one of those experiences that makes you understand Jesus' parables of the lost: the lost coin, the lost sheep, the lost son, the lost nation, the lost human race.
