Please pray I've lost something very important

[SwizzleStick]

I have lost something extremely important. I was on my way from work to home and lost my deposit bag. I know that I had it when I left work and I believe I had it when I got home but I was not paying any attention. In a frenzy, I ran through my house trying to find it when I noticed I did not have it an hour later. I did not see it but I was very worked up over it and just hope that i overlooked it. I came back to work to confirm that I did leave with it (on camera) and I did. Please pray that when I get home I will find it. It is from my husband’s business and if I don’t find it, I know he will be extremely mad. We did run an errand to one place and I checked with them and they did not have it. It’s an office and not many people go in and out, hardly any at all that the lady there is very nice so I am not worried that someone took it there. I don’t believe I had it with me when I was there. I am worried I dropped it outside somewhere in my apartment building and someone took it. I am always very carefull with that kind of stuff and that’s why I don’t believe I could have dropped it. I just hope that in my frenzy I just overlooked it at home. I am really afraid that if I don’t find it, and have to tell my husband, he may just not want to be with me anymore and I know that sounds silly but he can be very moody and judgemental and he’s wanted to leave me for a lot less than this. I just feel very upset right now and very afraid.

Did you find your deposit bag yet? I hope so. It has been a few days now, so I thought I’d ask.

St. Anthony, perfect imitator of Jesus, who received from God the special power of restoring lost things, grant that BABY may find the deposit bag which has been lost. At least restore to her peace and tranquility of mind, the loss of which has afflicted her even more than her material loss. To this favor, she asks another of you: that she may always remain in possession of the true good that is God. Let her rather lose all things than lose God, the supreme good. Let her never suffer the loss of her greatest treasure, eternal life with God.

Amen.

I suppose people may laugh at what I’m about to say, but I’ve been absolutely astonished at how well this seems to work:
Anthony, Anthony, turn around! Something’s lost that must be found!
When something had been lost for days, and on more than one occasion, remembering to say that led to an almost instantaneous find.

Remembering to say it as soon as I started having a problem led to an even quicker find.

Could this be a case of Littlewood’s law? Perhaps, but it seems too quick and too good for that to be the case, or at least that’s my subjective impression. And, it works much too often.

This is one of the reasons I made this post:

OP, something similar to this has happened to me on occasion. For example, I would be thinking of a non-recent movie I’d like to see again, and the next day I would scroll through the TV guide to see it scheduled to air that night.

It could be the result of subliminal prodding. The human mind is absolutely incredible, and it is thought that every single memory, word heard, or vision stays in our brains forever. It just depends on which part of the brain it is stored (conscious, subconscious, etc) and can come to the forefront of our minds at different times under different circumstances. You may have heard a comment or seen an advertisement for the particular subjects you mentioned without really focusing on it, and because you didn’t actually *think *

about or *remember *the suggestion, it freaked you out when you willingly processed the image the next day.

I wouldn’t consider demonic action to be related - I think you might be reading too much into this.

I agree with the following:

In Psychology, it’s known as synchronicity–a meaningful coincidence. I’ve heard different people refer to such events as, “God winks.”

Nothing to be worried about.

Or, it could just be a case of Littlewood’s law:

For more: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Littlewood’s_law

What science knows best is low-level phenomena that seem random, whether that be mechanically random, quantum randomness, thermodynamic randomness or some other sort of randomness. But randomness is an assumption. We actually know very little about how to calculate or even define those things which would constitute synchronicity, so there is still lots of room for discovering odd sorts of natural higher level order in the universe.

Prayer as an experiment seems to have unexpected effects, effects that one would not expect from holding a purely rational view of the world. I think it best to pray and see what happens, both inside of ourselves and out in the world.

I always pray to St Anthony and 9 times out of 10 the lost item is found. I do promise to donate at his shrine as well as giving thanks. Hope you find your lost bag soon.
