Today's Scripture: 1 Peter 5:10

On October 19, 2025, thieves broke into the Louvre museum in Paris and made off with historic, priceless treasures. An ornate crown from the Napoleon era was dropped and crushed during the escape.  Experts determined a delicate restoration was possible. The Bible tells us that human beings are the crown of God’s creation, bear the image of God and, as such, possess infinite worth.

Genesis 3 tells us our life is a sacred treasure, a masterpiece under construction, so valuable that a thief with criminal intent is trying to steal it away.

There are some who, like the damaged crown, have been recovered from the theft and are in the process of being delicately restored. The Bible calls these Christians.
