It's the Little Things

A few weeks ago, I bought
this metal cabinet at a garage sale for $2.00.
I'm always happy to find furniture with storage potential!  

It was in pretty rough condition.

This picture shows it sanded down
and ready for primer and paint.
(All my husband's work, by the way.
You can see more of his projects here.
I say that he works wonders!)

 This is it - after primer & two coats of paint.
I'm excited about the end result.

But I'm most excited about the latch below!

Isn't it wonderful?

Often it's the little and most unexpected thing 

that catches my eye...It's that way with God, too.

But God made selection of the foolish things of this world so that he might put the wise to shame; and the feeble things that he might put to shame the strong. (I Corinthians 1:27, Bible in Basic English)

He who is faithful in a very little [thing] is faithful also in much, and he who is dishonest and unjust in a very little [thing] is dishonest and unjust also in much. (Luke 16:10, Amplified Bible)

But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.  They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.” (Mark 12:42-44)
