Dear Sentinel
Our family got a new turtle after New Year's Day. Every day we let her out of her terrarium to wander around for about an hour. One day the turtle wandered where we couldn't find her. We got tired of looking, so my sister and I went downstairs and watched television. Soon my mother said, "It's time to find the turtle."
Then I prayed and thought, "Nothing is lost." I knew God, Mind, knows everything, and because He's infinite, nothing can be lost! I looked straight in front of me. I saw my cat, who is very curious about the turtle. I went over and looked near my cat's head—and there was the turtle! It was amazing how quickly and easily I found her when I prayed.

It was not a coincidence that Saya found the turtle a few seconds after she had prayed. We could have looked long and hard before we found her where she was located.
