The missing offering

Tot of something that happened a few weeks ago which I wanted to blog on but didn't get to...

On usual Tuesday, CGLs will submit their CG offerings to me if they had forgotten to drop it in the dropbox during the weekend. So one of the CGLs came to pass me Pst YK's CG offering. And after he signed and I put it into my bag, i made a mental note cos the offering envelope was very THICK.

The next day, when I got to office, I took out all the envelopes of offerings, and counter-check the offerings with my record. And lo and behold, Pst YK's offering was MISSING!!! I poured out everything in my bag and checked my file, but I just could not find it!!!! Ahhh.... Where has the offering gone to? Did I dropped it? Has someone taken it? Gosh. There was simply no way I dropped it bcos I did not open my bag after I put the offerings into my bag. Nobody has the chance to take it either. I didn't leave my bag for more than 20sec even. So WHAT HAPPENED?!!! Haiz. I only prayed that it must be somehow at home. The offering is probably about $800!! I can't lose it la. How to pay... I wanted to sms Vic, but bcos he was in Taiwan I didn't want to disturb him. 

I got home that night. Looked on the floor and the place where I put my bag, NOTHING. Can you imagine "DROP" in my heart? But for some unknown reason, I turned and take a look at the area again, and I FOUND the offering slotted in between some clothes!!!!!!!! WHY?!! I was so puzzled but I was simply too relieved to think more. Phew....

Then one night which was already a few days after Vic came back from Taiwan, Vic suddenly asked me, "You saw the offering right?" I turned and looked at him with that inquiring look. And he continued, "I knocked your bag over and the offering dropped out. So I slotted it in between the clothes. A, how come I didn't put it in the bag huh?" AHHHH... That's the cry in my heart at that moment. 

The next morning, this incident was brought to my mind while I was in the toilet. If I had smsed Vic when I realised the offering was gone, I wouldn't need to go through the episode since he already knew where it was. Hmmm... Many times, we delay in talking to the One who loves us most and we just go on worrying on something when He already has the answer. And this thought just kept coming to my mind for the last 2 weeks reminding me to go to Him who loves me most, and stop worrying about things. God is good.
