This afternoon, I noticed my dad fervently working away in his office. I was curious what he was working on. So, like any good daughter, I ventured in to his office to inquire about my dad's latest mission.
My dad began telling about a lock he was trying to figure out the combination to. He told me the usual method he goes about trying to retrieve a forgotten combination, but unfortunately, his method did not seem to work on this lock. He then told me about another method he tried following a video he found on YouTube. Again, that was a failure. Next, he was telling me about the latest video he was watching. He was trying to walk me through all the steps.
As I was looking at the look, I thought to myself, "That lock looks very familiar. I wonder where it is from?" So, once my dad took a pause to catch his breath, I casually asked, "Where is the lock from?" My dad replied that it was a lock from an old storage shed. I then happily quipped, "I remember a few of those combinations." I proceeded to give him the first combination that popped into my head. Unfortunately, the lock did not open. I then remembered another combination. When my dad reached the last number in the combination, the lock clicked and sprung open when my dad pulled on it! My dad looked in dumb-founded amazement at the lock and then at me. I, on the other hand, burst into uncontrollable laughter! My poor dad had spent most of the afternoon pain-stakingly trying to figure out the combination...and the answer to his problem was just a room away!
I love when God makes the seemingly impossible possible! May joy and laughter fill your day! "Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise" (Psalm 98:4).
