Regarding my frantic search for lip balm, I got this nice post from CM reader Ursula. Thanks!

Einstein says ‘God is in the details,’ and your experience in finding the lip balm just as you were about giving up is spiritually significant. I’m horribly disorganized and lack the self-discipline to change that one little flaw. The almost daily experiences of searching for something keeps me humble and then the thrill of finding it gives me a reason to shout out “THANK YOU, GOD.” I see it as God’s way of getting me attention, and He succeeds every time. Often I find other equally important things that I didn’t know I had misplaced, a little bonus. Somewhere I have a magnet that says ‘Those of you who keep a clean desk don’t know the thrill of finding something that was lost forever.’ Hope you all find something meaningful in your lives today! It’s out there. God is in the details and reveals himself through synchronistic often mundane events.
