It is very upsetting and difficult to see the thief through God's eyes! Ironically, the thieve (a man and woman) were caught a few weeks later...they hadn't realized that Walmart has video cameras in the parking lot. The cop on our case recognized the car and pulled them over. They still had my wallet in the center counsel of their car. They both had a history of small-time convictions. The judge didn't want me to be in the courtroom when they went to trial, but they wanted my opinion on what I thought should happen. I prayed about it and basically said that I didn't want retribution for what they took nor to go to jail for a long time. I just wanted them to realize how it affected me and that not only is this wrong, but it hurts others. I pray that they learned a lesson and chose to not make such a choice again. Maybe in showing them some grace they realize they have another chance to be honest and kind to others if they find something that's not theirs again.

I love the reminder to make sure we are honoring God with our words, thoughts, actions, etc. I pray that we all can step back in such situations and instead of reacting without thinking we turn to God for the strength and understanding that only He can give to us.

He is the one who steals, kills and destroys and he takes pleasure in misusing those whom our Lord Jesus loves so much. Perhaps your honest heartfelt prayers might just be what is needed to break Satan's hold on this person. Please, I am not saying stealing is acceptable and we do need to get angry at how we as humanity as a whole has been deceived by the evil one while we were still in the first Adam.<br />Blessings XX<br />MiaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02765891733244054084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766259787611337956.post-38271756477969648552013-10-30T09:45:02.424-05:002013-10-30T09:45:02.424-05:00I am so sorry that you were robbed :( What a bumm...I am so sorry that you were robbed :( What a bummer!!
