The Telling Scale

One of my least favorite things to do is to step on the scale. It tells too much info with one simple move from the floor to the scale. One read of the scale delares I ate too much at dinner, exercised too little or snacked one time too many. How I hate the telling scale! Many approach church this way. They feel uncomfortable if God reveals their sin through a sermon, teaching or a spiritual gift. Let's face it - stepping on a scale is not about being comfortable but about being healthy. May the Lord place His body of believers on His scales of justice and holiness. Isa 26:7 - "The way of the just is uprightness; O Most Upright, You weigh the path of the just."
