Someone stole a cell phone, put it up for sale for $300 on Kijiji. An alert employee of the store from which it was stolen saw the ad, and confirmed that it was the stolen cell phone. A police officer then made contact with the would-be seller, arranged to see the phone at a Tim Horton’s, and an arrest was made. The fine was $1,000, plus an additional $150 for the victims of crime fund. That was an expensive cell phone! Let’s hope the individual has learned a lesson. Although we often think we can get away with wrong doing, eventually every action has a consequence. If we abuse our bodies we will have to deal with the results, bad health and in some cases physical death. If we ignore His Word, the Bible, and neglect His offer of forgiveness and cleansing, we will face unpleasant consequences. But no matter how much we play mind games, God is real and His love is extended to all who will receive His invitation to “believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.”
