Are you robbing God?
(Image courtesy of http://www.venturesofsean.com.) When I was about seven years old, my family went on a trip to Sauk Prairie, Wisconsin to visit some of my parents' friends. They had four kids, the same number of kids as my family. I don't remember much from the trip, except that they had some cool toys. One toy in particular was a rubber mouse from Chuck E Cheese. When it came time to leave, I didn't want to leave the new toy I had discovered - so I took it with me. It wasn't until about halfway home that my parents asked me about the toy. I told them it wasn't mine. Needless to say, they weren't happy. But instead of scolding me with words, they turned around and drove back to their friends' house, making me walk up to the front door and give them their toy back. And on top of all that humiliation, I had to apologize. I definitely learned my lesson early on that thievery is a sin.
