Ripoff reminds of greater truth

A funny thing happened to Keith Boe of Post Falls on a recent business trip to Seattle. Seems he stopped at a deserted gas station in central Washington for fuel for his Subaru, an energy drink and a restroom break. A couple of lowlifes in a trashed silver pickup eyed Keith strangely as he entered the station. Keith shrugged it off. The toughs were gone when he exited the building – along with Keith’s sleep apnea machine, laptop, luggage, toiletries, clothes, et cetera. Take it away, Keith: “It’s hard to get over the feeling of being violated, but it also makes me very thankful. I know that every day I am fed only by God’s own hand personally.” Rather than stew, Keith’s thoughts turned to that Sermon on the Mount verse (Matthew 6:26) that says God’s TLC extends to the birds of the air. Keith’s tale has a silver lining. In their hurry, the thieves overlooked $10,000 worth of Samsung gear in the trunk and Keith’s car keys in a cup holder/DFO, Sunday Huckleberries. More here.
