I got my guitar back!

It's still a work in progress, but my stolen purple G&L Legacy was returned to me by a kind detective from the State College Police Department last Thursday. There are a lot of details to be sorted out, but at least I have my guitar back.

It's a weird thing, having stuff stolen from me as a person, and from the church. I initially thought that someone had borrowed the guitar. That happens from time to time. But it showed up for sale on eBay, and there was no mistaking that it was my guitar. I'm still processing my feelings about the whole ordeal, and it may take some time to get everything all sorted out.

How do you think Jesus would react to having his gear pilfered? Would he offer grace and let things go? Or do you envision him turning over tables in the marketplace? I know that the disciples suspected Judas Iscariot of stealing from the treasury (John 12-6), yet Jesus loved him and kept him around...

Grace abounds, and grace is good. Love wins.
