Just this past week, my home was burglarized.  What struck us the most, was the loss of our brand new E-Machine that we just purchased in September.  This is the same computer that we created the Educator Prayer Network web site.  This is the same computer that I completed the Weekly Devotions on.  I was reminded of the scripture that says:

A thief is only there to steal and kill and destroy.

I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and

better life than they ever dreamed of.  

John 10:10

I thank the Lord that our lives were spared and that more things were not taken.  It could have been worse.  Look at the bright side: Our lives are not hung up in the material things of this World.  Our treasure, that is eternal, cannot be stolen by any thief.  If anything has been stolen from you, remember that the Lord restores and you are blessed with Abundant Life.
