You know that sinking feeling when something important simply vanishes. Your keys, a cherished heirloom, a legal document, or even a sense of peace you thought you’d never lose. St. Anthony of Padua has been the go-to intercessor for Catholics and Christians across the world for centuries, and his powerful intercession for lost things is one of the most well-known devotions in Christian prayer life. Many people have turned to him in moments of desperation and walked away astonished.
This collection of 26 prayers to St. Anthony for lost things covers every kind of loss you might face, from physical objects to spiritual direction, from lost relationships to lost hope. Each prayer is grounded in Scripture, emotionally honest, and crafted to help you bring your need before God with confidence and humility. Whether you are new to praying through saints or a lifelong devotee, these prayers will give voice to what your heart already knows.
What Does the Bible Say About Seeking What Is Lost?
Scripture does not treat loss as a small thing. In Luke 15:8-9, Jesus tells the parable of a woman who loses one silver coin and lights a lamp, sweeps the entire house, and searches carefully until she finds it. When she does, she calls her friends and neighbors together to celebrate. This story reveals something profound: God cares deeply about what is lost, and He celebrates when the lost is found.
Psalm 34:17 declares, “The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; He delivers them from all their troubles.” This verse anchors your prayer in a truth that cannot be shaken. God hears the cry of the faithful. He is not indifferent to your search, whether you are looking for something physical, spiritual, or emotional.
St. Anthony himself was a man of deep biblical knowledge. His intercession is not a replacement for prayer to God, but a powerful act of asking a holy friend in Heaven to pray alongside you. Just as you might ask a trusted friend to intercede on your behalf, asking St. Anthony to lift your need to God is a beautiful act of Christian community that reaches beyond death itself.
1. Prayers to St. Anthony When You Lose Something Physical
The most common reason people turn to St. Anthony for lost things is the loss of a physical object. Keys, wallets, jewelry, important documents, phones, and cherished mementos all have a way of disappearing at the worst possible moments. Physical loss can trigger real anxiety, and bringing that anxiety directly to God through St. Anthony’s intercession transforms a frustrating moment into a moment of faith. These prayers acknowledge the real stress of losing something tangible while firmly placing trust in God’s ability to guide your search.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Keys or Documents
Dear St. Anthony, patron of all that is lost, I come to you now with a humble and anxious heart. I have lost something important, and I feel the weight of that loss pressing on me. You who lived so close to Christ know that even small things matter to God. The Psalmist wrote, “Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you” (Psalm 55:22). I cast this burden now. I ask you to intercede before the throne of grace that God may open my eyes and guide my hands to what I cannot find. Calm my frustration. Quiet my panic. Help me search with patience and trust rather than anxiety. I believe that nothing is truly lost to God, who sees all things. Through your holy intercession, may I find what I need. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Phone or Wallet
Holy St. Anthony, finder of lost things, you know the disruption that comes when something we rely on daily goes missing. My phone and my wallet hold pieces of my life, and their loss touches everything. I turn to you not in superstition but in sincere faith, asking you to join your prayers to mine. Jesus said, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” (Matthew 7:7). I am asking. I am seeking. I am knocking. Guide my memory. Guide my steps. Help me retrace my path with clarity and calm. If it is God’s will that I find this item, let His will be done swiftly. If it is lost beyond recovery, grant me peace to move forward. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Heirloom or Sentimental Item
Blessed St. Anthony, I come to you broken-hearted over something that carries deep meaning for me. This item is more than an object. It carries the memory of someone I love, a chapter of my life I cannot replace. I know that God sees the value of what we treasure and why we treasure it. Proverbs 2:6 tells us, “For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.” I ask for wisdom in my search and understanding that God holds all things, including memory and love, more securely than any earthly object can. St. Anthony, you lost a sacred manuscript and God brought it back to you. Pray for me now. Ask God to restore what I have lost or to give me the grace to release what cannot be found. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Pet
Dear St. Anthony, my heart aches with worry for my beloved pet who is lost. I know God created all living things and called them good. His care extends even to sparrows, as Jesus said: “Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care” (Matthew 10:29). If the Father watches over sparrows, I trust He watches over my beloved companion too. I beg your intercession, St. Anthony. Pray that God guides my pet safely home. Pray that kind people find and protect this creature. Calm my fear with faith. Strengthen my search with hope. And if the outcome is not what I hope, hold me steady in the knowledge that God’s care reaches beyond what I can see. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony After Searching Without Success
St. Anthony, I have searched and searched, and still I come up empty-handed. My frustration is real, and my faith is being tested. Yet I remember that Abraham searched for a city whose architect was God, and he never stopped walking in faith. Hebrews 11:1 says, “Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” I hold onto that assurance now. I ask you to lift my search before God once more and to pray that His timing and His wisdom govern this situation. I surrender my anxiety. I release my need to control the outcome. Help me trust that whether I find this item or not, God is already working something good in me through this experience. Amen.
2. Prayers to St. Anthony for Lost Faith and Spiritual Direction
Not every loss is something you can hold in your hands. Sometimes you lose your sense of spiritual direction, your trust in God, or your feeling of closeness to Him. These losses are among the most painful a person can experience. The good news is that St. Anthony was himself a great theologian and preacher who understood the interior life deeply. He walked through his own spiritual struggles with fierce devotion. These prayers call on his intercession for those who feel spiritually adrift, doubting, or dry.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Faith
Holy St. Anthony, my faith has grown thin, and I come to you ashamed but honest. I do not feel God’s presence the way I once did. The fire that once burned in me has dimmed, and I do not know how to rekindle it alone. Mark 9:24 speaks my truth: “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief.” I bring that cry to you today. Intercede for me before the God you loved with your whole life. Ask Him to breathe new life into my dying embers. Ask Him to reach into the hollow places in my heart and fill them again with His nearness. I have not stopped wanting to believe, and I trust that a faith worth having is one that survives the wilderness. Pray for me, St. Anthony. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Sense of Purpose
St. Anthony, I have lost my sense of why I am here. The path that once seemed clear is now obscured, and I cannot see the next step. You gave your life entirely to God’s purpose and never wavered. I ask you to pray that God illumines my path once more. Jeremiah 29:11 is a promise I cling to: “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Remind my heart of that promise. Ask God to restore clarity, direction, and the deep knowledge that my life carries meaning. I do not need all the answers today. I only need the courage to take one faithful step. Help me find it. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Relationship with God
Blessed St. Anthony, I feel far from God, and the distance terrifies me. I know in my mind that He has not moved, but my heart cannot feel Him. I remember the parable of the prodigal son, who came to his senses and returned home to a Father who ran toward him while he was still a great distance away (Luke 15:20). I want to come home. I am taking the first steps even now. Pray for me, St. Anthony, that God meets me on the road as I turn back to Him. Ask Him to dissolve whatever walls I have built through sin, neglect, or doubt. I want to feel His arms around me again. I want to know I am His. Walk with me as I find my way back. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony During Spiritual Dryness
Holy St. Anthony, I am in a desert season. Prayer feels hollow. Worship feels mechanical. I go through the motions, but the joy is gone. Even the saints experienced this, and I take comfort knowing that dryness does not mean abandonment. Isaiah 43:19 gives me hope: “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” God makes streams in the wasteland. Pray that He makes one in mine. Ask Him to water this dry ground with His presence until something begins to grow again. I will keep showing up even when I feel nothing, trusting that faith is not always a feeling but always a choice. Guide me, St. Anthony. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony to Find God’s Will
Dear St. Anthony, I am searching for God’s will and finding nothing but silence. I stand at a crossroads and do not know which way to turn. You discerned God’s call with extraordinary clarity throughout your life, moving from one vocation to another when God’s voice grew clear. I ask you to pray that my own hearing is sharpened. Romans 12:2 urges me: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is.” Renew my mind. Quiet the noise of the world so I can hear the still, small voice of God. And when He speaks, give me the courage to follow. Amen.
3. Prayers to St. Anthony for Lost Hope and Emotional Healing
When life batters you long enough, hope can quietly slip away without you even noticing. You might find yourself going through the days feeling numb, resigned, or quietly despairing. St. Anthony was a healer, and the miracles attributed to him include not only the finding of physical objects but the restoration of broken people. These prayers call on his intercession for those carrying emotional wounds, grief, despair, and exhaustion that has stripped away their ability to hope.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Hope
St. Anthony, hope has become hard for me. I want to believe things will get better, but disappointment has been my companion for so long that hope feels dangerous. Yet Romans 5:5 assures me: “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.” I ask you to intercede for a fresh outpouring of that love in my heart. Pray that God revives what grief has nearly extinguished. Pray that He restores in me the capacity to look forward, to trust again, and to believe that good things still lie ahead. I have not given up entirely, because I am here praying. Let that small act of prayer be the seed from which hope grows again. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony After Grief and Loss
Holy St. Anthony, I am grieving, and grief has taken so much from me, not just the person or thing I lost, but my sense of safety, my future as I had imagined it, and my ability to feel joy. Jesus wept at Lazarus’s tomb (John 11:35), and that verse tells me that God does not dismiss grief. He enters it. I ask you to stand with me in this grief and bring it before the God who wept. Ask Him to be close to my broken heart (Psalm 34:18) in a way I can feel. I do not need the grief to disappear overnight. I only need to know I am not carrying it alone. Pray that His comfort reaches me in the quiet moments when the loss hits hardest. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Joy
Blessed St. Anthony, I have lost my joy, and I miss it profoundly. Life still holds good things, but I cannot feel their goodness the way I once did. Nehemiah 8:10 declares, “The joy of the Lord is your strength.” Without joy, I feel weak in ways I cannot fully explain. I ask you to carry this specific need to God. Ask Him to restore the joy that is rooted not in circumstances but in His unchanging character. Ask Him to let me taste again what it means to be loved and held by Him. Joy does not require everything to be perfect. I know that now. Help me receive it even in the middle of difficulty. Pray for me, St. Anthony, until joy finds its way back to me. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Emotional Healing After Trauma
St. Anthony, trauma has taken things from me that I did not choose to give. It took my sense of safety, my trust in people, and my ability to rest without fear. I carry wounds I did not deserve and scars that affect every part of my life. Isaiah 61:3 speaks of God giving “a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.” I need that exchange. I ask you to intercede that God begins this healing work in me at the root level, not just the surface. Pray that He sends the right people, the right help, and His own tender presence into my recovery. I am willing to heal. I simply need His power to make it possible. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Peace of Mind
Holy St. Anthony, my mind will not rest. Anxiety circles through my thoughts day and night, and peace feels completely out of reach. Philippians 4:7 promises “the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” I claim that promise today. I ask you to stand before God on my behalf and ask Him to post that guard around my mind. Ask Him to silence the fearful thoughts that keep me awake. Ask Him to steady my breathing and slow my racing heart. I cannot manufacture peace by willpower alone. I need it to come from outside of me, from the God who spoke and stilled the storm. Pray that He speaks to mine. Amen.
4. Prayers to St. Anthony for Lost Relationships and Reconciliation
Broken relationships carry some of the heaviest grief a person can bear. Whether a friendship dissolved, a marriage fractured, a family became estranged, or a loved one turned away, the loss of human connection cuts at the deepest part of who we are. St. Anthony is known not only as a finder of lost things but as a peacemaker and reconciler. These prayers ask for his intercession in the tender and complicated territory of lost relationships, estrangement, and the courage required for reconciliation.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Friendship
Dear St. Anthony, a friendship I valued deeply has broken apart, and I miss this person more than I can properly say. I do not fully understand what went wrong, or perhaps I do and carry the weight of my part in it. Either way, the loss is real. Proverbs 17:17 says, “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.” I ask you to intercede for restoration where it is possible and for grace to release it where it is not. If reconciliation is God’s will, soften both hearts. Open the door for an honest conversation. Remove pride from both sides. And if this friendship cannot be restored, pray that God heals the wound it left and brings good people into my life who reflect His love faithfully. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Broken Marriage
Blessed St. Anthony, my marriage is in a place of deep pain, and I fear losing the person I promised to love for life. What once felt close and safe now feels distant and uncertain. Ecclesiastes 4:12 says, “A cord of three strands is not quickly broken,” and I pray that God remains the third strand holding us together even when we cannot hold each other. I ask for your intercession with all urgency. Pray that God softens what has hardened between us. Pray that He heals old wounds so they do not keep reopening. Ask Him to renew our commitment, restore our trust, and rebuild what has been broken piece by piece. If we need help, send it. If we need courage, grant it. Bind what the enemy has tried to tear apart. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Family Bond
Holy St. Anthony, estrangement has entered my family, and the silence between us is one of the loneliest sounds I know. We were once close, and now a wall stands between us built of old hurt, misunderstanding, and pride. Romans 12:18 urges me, “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” I want to do my part. I ask you to pray that God prepares the way for healing conversations and that He works in my heart and in the hearts of my family members simultaneously. Remove the resentment that has calcified over time. Create opportunities for truth and forgiveness to do their slow, necessary work. I believe family bonds can be restored, because I believe in the God who specializes in resurrection. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Reconciliation After Conflict
St. Anthony, a conflict has damaged something precious between me and someone I care about. Words were said that cannot be unsaid, and the aftermath has left both of us wounded and wary. Matthew 5:9 blesses the peacemakers, and I want to be one. I ask for the courage to take the first step toward reconciliation. I ask you to intercede that God prepares the other person’s heart to receive my approach with openness rather than defensiveness. Pray that I go with genuine humility rather than the need to be right. Ask God to guide every word I say so they build rather than destroy. Reconciliation is hard and holy work, and I cannot do it without His grace and your prayers walking beside me. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony to Find a Lost Loved One
Blessed St. Anthony, someone I love has wandered away, whether physically, spiritually, or emotionally, and I am desperate for their safe return. I hold onto the parable of the prodigal son, not only because the son came home but because the father never stopped watching the road (Luke 15:20). I will keep watching the road for my loved one. I ask you to intercede that God pursues them with relentless love. Ask Him to hedge their path, block every road that leads to deeper harm, and open every door that leads back to safety and to Him. Protect them where I cannot reach. Speak to them in the silence of their own hearts. And if it is His will, bring them home. I will be watching. I will run to meet them. Amen.
5. Prayers to St. Anthony for Lost Opportunities and Life Decisions
Sometimes the thing you lose is not an object or a person but a chance. A job opportunity that slipped away, a decision you regret, a path not taken, or a season of life that ended before you felt ready. The grief of lost opportunity is real and often underestimated. St. Anthony’s intercession is not limited to finding physical objects. He prays for the full range of human need, including the need to trust God with our regrets, our missed chances, and the roads not taken. These prayers bring those losses before God with honesty and faith.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Career Opportunity
Holy St. Anthony, I watched an opportunity I wanted deeply pass me by, and the disappointment has settled heavily on my shoulders. I had hoped, and hoping and then losing is a particular kind of pain. Yet I hold onto Proverbs 16:9: “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.” God establishes my steps. Even the ones that feel like detours. I ask you to intercede that whatever I am supposed to step into next becomes clear. Ask God to open doors that no person can shut and to give me the patience to wait for His timing rather than forcing my own. Help me trust that what feels like a closed door is often the hallway to a better one. Guide my next step, St. Anthony. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Regret Over a Past Decision
Blessed St. Anthony, I am haunted by a decision I made that I cannot undo. I replay it in my mind, wondering what would have happened if I had chosen differently. The weight of that regret is becoming a prison. Romans 8:28 gives me a truth I desperately need: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.” All things. Even the decisions I regret. I ask you to intercede that God redeems what I have lost through poor judgment. Ask Him to take the broken pieces of this decision and build something good from them that I cannot yet see. Free me from the prison of regret. Lead me into the freedom of forward motion. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Financial Stability
Dear St. Anthony, financial loss has shaken my sense of security, and anxiety about the future is my constant companion. I know that God is not indifferent to our material needs. Philippians 4:19 assures me, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.” I cling to that promise. I ask you to intercede for provision, for wisdom in how I handle what I have, and for the courage to seek help when I need it. Ask God to open unexpected avenues of income, to guard my remaining resources, and to give me peace in the middle of the uncertainty. I release the grip of fear and replace it with trust in a God who has never let His children go hungry for want of His care. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Health
Holy St. Anthony, illness has stolen my health, and with it much of what I took for granted: energy, independence, the ability to be present in my own life the way I want to be. Jeremiah 17:14 cries out, “Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for You are the one I praise.” I make that cry my own today. I ask you to bring my physical suffering before the Great Physician and ask for His healing touch. Whether that healing comes suddenly or slowly, through medicine or miracle, I trust Him with the timeline. Ask God to restore strength to my body and hope to my spirit. Give me the grace to bear what must be borne while trusting that He has not forgotten me. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Lost Confidence and Identity
St. Anthony, somewhere along the way I lost myself. Life’s pressures, failures, or the words of others have chipped away at who I knew myself to be, and I no longer recognize the person in the mirror the way I once did. Psalm 139:14 declares that I am “fearfully and wonderfully made.” I ask you to pray that I receive that truth not just in my mind but deep in my bones. Ask God to remind me who He says I am, beloved, chosen, purposeful, and worthy of love. Pray that He rebuilds my confidence on the only foundation that cannot crumble: His unchanging love for me. I will not find myself by looking inward alone. Help me find myself in Him. Amen.
6. Prayers to St. Anthony in Moments of Urgent Need
Sometimes you do not have time for a long, reflective prayer. The moment is urgent, the need is pressing, and you simply need to send up a fast and faithful cry for help. St. Anthony has always responded to urgent calls. History and tradition are filled with accounts of people calling on him in moments of sudden need and receiving swift answers. These prayers are for those urgent moments when time is short but faith is fierce and you need God to move right now.
Prayer to St. Anthony in a Moment of Panic
St. Anthony, I need you right now. Panic is flooding me and I cannot think clearly. Something is lost or something has gone terribly wrong, and I am reaching for you in this moment because I do not know where else to reach. Psalm 46:1 says, “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” Be that refuge for me right now. Ask God to steady my hands and clear my mind. Ask Him to cut through the fog of panic with His calm. I am not praying with beautiful words right now. I am crying out. I believe He hears crying out too. Help me find what I have lost. Help me survive this moment with faith intact. Stand with me, St. Anthony, in this exact second. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for a Lost Child or Family Member in an Emergency
St. Anthony, a child or family member is missing, and every second feels like an eternity. Fear is threatening to overwhelm my reason. I call on you with everything I have. Psalm 34:7 promises, “The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and He delivers them.” I ask for that angelic protection right now around my missing loved one. I ask that God’s covering falls over them wherever they are. Pray that they are kept safe, that they are found quickly, and that every person involved in this search is guided by an unseen hand. I trust that God sees my child even when I cannot. He has never lost sight of them. Lead them home, Lord. Lead them to safety. St. Anthony, pray with me. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony When Time Is Running Out
Blessed St. Anthony, time is running out and I still have not found what I need. The deadline is close, the pressure is mounting, and I feel desperate. Yet I remember that Lazarus lay dead for four days before Jesus arrived, and when He came, it was not too late (John 11:17,43-44). It is never too late for God. I ask you to intercede with urgency before God’s throne. Ask Him to make a way where there seems to be no way. Ask Him to work beyond the limits of my time and my ability. I release the outcome into His hands completely. Whatever happens in the next few minutes or hours, I trust that God is present and active in this situation. Help me stay faithful even if the answer does not come the way I expect. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony for Clarity When Confused and Lost
Dear St. Anthony, I am genuinely lost, not just in a physical sense but in the deeper sense of not knowing what to do next. Confusion has wrapped itself around every decision, and I cannot see clearly enough to take even one step forward. James 1:5 says, “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” I am asking. I ask you to join that request with your own prayers before God. Ask Him to cut through the confusion like a sharp light. Ask Him to make the next right step obvious, even if He shows me only one step at a time. I do not need the whole map. I only need the next step. Please pray that He shows me. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony With a Final, Desperate Heart
St. Anthony, I have prayed every prayer I know and still the answer has not come. I am laying my last hope before you now, not because I have run out of faith, but because I have run out of words and strategies and plans. All I have left is this: I believe God is good. Lamentations 3:22-23 says, “Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning.” I need new mercies right now. Carry this desperate prayer to the God of new beginnings. Tell Him that one of His children has come to the end of themselves and needs Him to take over completely. I release my grip. He can have all of it. Whatever He wills, let it be done. Amen.
7. Short Prayers to St. Anthony for Lost Things
Sometimes the most powerful prayer is the shortest one. These brief prayers to St. Anthony for lost things are crafted for the moments between tasks, the quiet seconds before a search begins, or the times when your heart simply needs a fast and faithful word to send heavenward.
Short Prayer 1
St. Anthony, finder of lost things, hear my prayer. Something I need is missing, and I bring it to you now. Psalm 32:8 promises, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go.” Ask God to guide my eyes, my hands, and my steps. Pray that what is lost is found. I trust His timing and I trust your intercession. Amen.
Short Prayer 2
Holy St. Anthony, I call on you in this moment of need. Something precious is gone and my heart is anxious. Matthew 7:7 says, “Seek and you will find.” I am seeking. Add your prayers to mine that God opens my path to what has been lost. Calm my worry. Sharpen my focus. And let me find it soon, according to His perfect will. Amen.
Short Prayer 3
Blessed St. Anthony, patron of the lost and forgotten, I need your help today. Stand before God on my behalf and ask Him to restore what I cannot find. Proverbs 3:5-6 says to “trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him.” I submit this need to Him now. Through your intercession, may His hand lead me to what has been lost. Amen.
A Final Note
You came here searching, which means you already have what faith requires: the willingness to reach beyond yourself for help. St. Anthony of Padua has been answering that reach for centuries because his entire ministry was rooted in the belief that God cares about every dimension of human life, from the grandest spiritual questions to the simplest missing object. Praying through him is not a magic formula. It is an act of communal faith, the kind that says: I believe in a God whose family stretches from Earth into eternity, and I am not ashamed to ask for help from those who have gone before me in faith.
Whatever you are searching for today, keep searching with faith. Pray these prayers as often as you need them. Return to the ones that speak most directly to your situation. Write them in your journal, memorize them, or whisper them in the hallway before you try once more. The God who counts every hair on your head knows exactly what you have lost and exactly where it is. Trust His timing. Trust His love. And trust that your prayer, however simple, has already been heard. St. Anthony, pray for us.
