Interesting but...

Today I became a victim! No...it wasn't a hate crime or violence or even being left alone...instead my e-mail was hacked...and now I'm hacked!!!

I have no idea how this stuff happens. All I know is my e-mail address was used to harass my friends, family and business associates. Now, as a result of this event my e-mail has been cut off, keeping me from communicating with people I love, people that I need to talk with. It really stinks...

The fact is, this hacking event is very much like what happens in our daily lives. Satan finds a way to hack into our lives, working hard at stealing our personal relationships. He poses as someone he's not. He lies in order to get what he wants. He uses others to cut us off from the ONE that we really need.

My e-mail will recover. I'll get a new address and I'll press on as if never hacked. But Satan's attack will continue...relentless attacks...hacking into our lives and stealing our joy. But our Lord is better protection than any anti-virus program ever thought of being. As Paul says, "I am convinced that NOTHING can separate me from the love of God through Christ Jesus!" (Romans 8).
