i read your thread last night deborah, and was mentally picturing the entire situation. i had a situation once where i was face to face with a very large man trying to break into my home many years ago. my first and only reaction was to yell at him to go away and never come back again. my voice must have been larger than i knew because he ran off like a scared bunny. i also ran after a man who walked into the veterinarian's office i worked at and stole the cash we had in our drawer. he was apprehended and i got a scolding by the police officer for chasing a criminal. i must work on this. i seem to have a momma bear instinct where no one is going to invade my territory.
anyway debs, i am thankful to our Father God for your and your family's continual protection. i prayed last night also for your wolf dog, and your kitty to stay safe. i thank our LORD for the opportunity for you to draw closer to Him.
stand strong in the faith He has gifted you. (i must continue to remember this personally)

Samson:
Dear Deborah,
Sorry that You and Your Family had to endure such suffering, but glad that God made a way out for You and Yours. Although, most of Us at BT are aware that God has given the Sons of Mankind " An Experience of Evil." Eccl. 1:13, none of Us experience the same Evil and to the same degree. I finally have the ESword feature hooked up again, after two years of it not working and no wonder there's so much confusion on translation. The Concordant Literal translates Eccl. 1:13 properly, but noticed Translations of the King James Version Family and it's Daughters translate the Hebrew Ra as "Sore" instead of Evil and the Hebrew Word Aw Naw as "Exercise" instead of Humble. In the ESword feature, a little box appears showing definitions of these words. Boy, I'm going to enjoy this ESword, won't have to look everything up the Old fashioned way, all the time anymore.
Sorry Deborah for changing the subject and going on and on. This Thread is about You and Your Experience of Evil. Apparently, God's Spirit was working in You and with You. You mentioned the Carnal weapons at your disposal(Guns, Dogs, Window Bars, Fists, Nails, etc), yet You didn't return Evil for Evil.
I can't identify with this particular type of an experience of Evil, ie- House invaded, almost robbed, threatened with physical violence from the Thieves, etc. I'm certainly not glad that this happened to You, but glad You shared Your experience of Evil to share with us, hoping we can learn from Your experience, at least on some level. I tried to have a mental picture of this scenario, like Claudia mentions, so as to gain some measure of visual comprehension.
You mentioned the Timber wolf ! Is that a literal wolf Pet or the name or reference of a Dog you have as a Pet.
I Leave You with these Verses: Php 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Rom 12:12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
Rom 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
Rom 12:18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
Rom 12:19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Rom 12:20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
Rom 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
It seems by the events You described in Your initial Post, that God Cause You to accomplish the above(Romans. 12:17-21).
Glad Your Okay, Agapeo, Samson.
