This scale is moving me into 2019 with a hope and a promise.
It seems silly. I know. A scale.
But. I had it in my heart that I wanted a cute scale for my new kitchen. Whenever and where ever that may be.
Really. Any scale will do. Something cute. Maybe vintage. Something with a story.
I looked at vintage spots, and flea malls. And clearly. Everyone else wants a scale too. Because they are trendy--and pricey--right now.
So. I haven't bought one. I've just dreamed of them on Pinterest and other little spots.
I figured when I found the right one, I'd know it.
And then. Hearth and Hand released this little cutie. He was only $14.99.
But again. A frivolous purchase. And just before Christmas? Nah. I'll wait.
But every time I saw it, my heart did a little jump.
Anyways. Yesterday I went to Target. A few groceries and a few post-Christmas clearance buys.
And on the way to the register. I saw it again.
So I thought. If it's on sale, I'll get it.
Again. I know. It's only $14.99. But I won't buy it at full price. I don't NEED it. #AttemptAtDiscipline
I passed one of the scanners. And of course. It was broken.
Anyways. When I got to the register, I asked the cashier to tell me how much it was before I bought it.
$1.49.
One. Dollar. And. Forty. Nine. Cents.
I literally squealed. And I squealed OUT LOUD "God knows the desires of my heart" and I had a Jesus moment with her. As I said "you have no idea how much I wanted it to be on sale" and she replied "if it's your blessing, He will give it to you!! You acted on faith just bringing it up here!"
What?!
I was in full on JOY mode all day!
Such a small thing. I know.
But to me. It was huge. It was a great end of a year that hasn't quite brought me those desires of my heart. But it was a reminder of the promise still to come.
He has purposed these things in my heart. And when His time is now, so it will be!
Praise God for such a tiny item, to bring a strong word to my spirit!
