Matthew Henry, the famous Bible scholar, was once accosted by thieves and robbed of his billfold. He wrote these memorable words in his diary:
"Let me be thankful, first, because I have never been robbed before; second, although they took my billfold, they did not take my life; third, because, although they took my all, it was not that much; and fourth, because it was I who was robbed and not someone else."
