Seek, and you will find

A very strange thing...

When someone asks me to look for something, I always ask him/her two questions:

1. "When was the last moment you remember you have seen it?"
2. "and, where was it at that last moment?"

Then, if they have some answers to these questions, I tell them,"Ok, we will find it in five minutes. Look at your watch and start counting!"
Then, within five minutes, the thing would be found (either by me or by them), and usually from a very unexpected place.

I didn't know how many times this would work, but to my surprise, it didn't work just once in 20 cases. However, in that one case, the thing did appear few hours later. Therefore, so far my reflection is: if you seek, with sincere motivation and good reason, then somehow it will be found. But I still don't know why it always happens within five minutes. Is it God? I tend to believe so. If the same thing happens to you, just let me know...
