Last week I went to a retail store and I saw these beautiful sandals but I did not have money to buy them and I did not want to use a credit card as I am practicing “spend what you have”. I looked at them and said that I would come back and buy them soon. God, please keep one pair in my size for me until I have money.

The following week I did indeed have the money. I got to the store feeling very excited. I looked and looked but the shoes were not there. I was a little disappointed but at peace with it since it is Christmas time everyone is out shopping so I am not surprised that they were sold. However, I kept a positive attitude and believed that if God did not keep a pair for me in this particular store then I would find them from a different branch some other time.

I took another pair that was on special, and just as I was thinking to go and pay, the Universe said ‘walk around the store a bit, maybe the shoes could be in a different area’. I walked around but I was not looking for the shoes. I was just eye shopping handbags and clothes. As I got to the end of the store, I thought, ah, let me now go and pay. God being good, I had a sudden feeling that I should make a U turn and look by the door.

And bam! My shoes were there in my size! Oh my goodness! I have never been so happy and grateful for a pair of shoes. I kept thanking God with a big smile on my face on my way to the cashier.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
