Recently my husband and I were unable to find a small bottle of eye drops which was always kept in the same place in the refrigerator.
They are drops my eye doctor prescribed for me and are specifically made for my eyes and I use them every day. I had used them earlier that same day and was sure I had put them back in the refrigerator in the place they were always kept.
But my husband and I had both looked in the refrigerator and neither of us could find them. I had no idea what I had done with them.
I then prayed, asking God to please help us find my eye drops and when I did, I immediately heard ... LOOK IN THE REFRIGERATOR.
I had just finished looking in the refrigerator and had not seen them but I believed this was God speaking to me, so I reopened the refrigerator door, looked in, and instantly I saw the little bottle in a location I did not remember putting it!
My husband, who is not born again, asked me how I found them. I started laughing and told him that I had asked God to please help us find these eye drops and God said to look in the refrigerator and I did that and found them!

When I read of Barbara hearing "Look in the refrigerator" right after she had already done that, I laughed, thinking of how unexpected this word from the Holy Spirit would be. But, when Barbara did as she heard from the Holy Spirit ... looking in the refrigerator ... that is when she saw the eye drops.
This reminds me of the account we have in Luke 5 in which Simon and those with him had fished all night and caught nothing. But when Jesus told him to go back out and let down the nets he did it, obeying the word given him by Jesus, and they caught a great multitude of fish.
4 Now when HE (Jesus) had left speaking, HE said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at THY word I will let down the net.
6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.
