I have always loved this story in the scriptures, it has long been a favorite since I first read and learned about him. This weekend I was able to meet one of those good Samaritan's, those true honest good people that do good for others without even thinking twice. This past Sunday I had an Opticians conference in Red Deer so we thought we would make a weekend out of it and visit my mom and dad. It was a great weekend with beating mom and dad at rook I think it was 5 times in a row, swimming at the awesome Ponoka swimming pool and of course spoiling Macie with hugs, kisses and attention. Macie has grown quit found of her granmda and grandpa very quickly loving snuggles with grandma and laughing and giggling with grandpa.  So the weekend was going wonderfully until Sunday after church I quickly feed Macie then passed her on to my mom and dad to watch her while Mark and I headed to Red Deer for my conference, half way to red deer I realized I did not have my wallet and I remembered taking it out of the diaper bag I thought I just left it in my parents car when I went to say good bye to Macie, on the way home from Red Deer I thought I would give mom and dad a quick call to make sure it was in the car, unfortunately it wasn't. I had to rack my brain and try and figure out where I might have put it, I then realized there was two options 1. I left it in the church building, or 2. I put it on top of my parents car when I went to say bye to Macie and forget it there. option 2 was sounding more and more familiar in my head the closer we got to Lacome. I said a quick prayer asking Heavenly father to help me find my wallet thinking it would not be answered as Mark and I had to break the sabbath for some lunch, still I prayed hoping for a miracle. When we arrived at the church I had a feeling to check my messages on the home phone number I don't know why just felt impressed. When I called there was a message on our home phone from a lady and her husband that were driving on the highway and saw this bright green wallet that looked fairly new, they pulled over on the highway picked it up 411'd my phone number from my drivers license and left a message saying they had my wallet and it was intact and everything was still there including the $150 I had in there. All I can say is thank goodness that there are good people in this world random strangers who took time out of there life to help another, someone they have never meet but knew life for them would suck if they did not get that wallet back. I also learn more and more every day and with every miracle how much my Savior loves me it is amazing and unbelievable some times, even when I am sinning and being imperfect he still loves me and answers my prayers.
