Home Invasion

Today our home fell victim to a home invasion. While my husband was in bed getting prepared to work his night shift, three men entered our home. He heard the dogs barking and the rummaging around but because it was 12:30 in the afternoon, he thought our daughter perhaps was home from school for lunch and brought her noisy teenage friends. Then when his door opened up and a man walked in the bedroom, he realized that this was not a good situation. The man was also startled and ran up the stairs. Three men who had been rummaging in our home ran out the door and down the street. Of course the police were called and the whole process is in place but my husband was pretty shaken up. I was too when I came home from work and heard the whole story. Nothing was taken and my husband wasn't hurt. I am thankful for that. My children weren't home. They were safe at school. My pets were shaken up but pretty much unharmed. When I started to play out the scenerios in my mind of the things that "could have" happened I praise God that He preserved my husband keeping him safe from harm. The peace that I have right now can't be described. I don't like the idea that someone was through our home but I know God is sovereign and will work all of this into something that will glorify His name.
