A young couple that had received many valuable wedding presents established their home in a suburb. One morning they received in the mail two tickets for a popular show in the city, with a single line:
"Guess who sent them."
The pair had much amusement in trying to identify the donor,
but failed in the effort. They duly attended the theatre & had a delightful
time.
On their return home late at night, still trying to guess
the identity of the unknown host, they found the house stripped of every
article of value. And on the bare table in the dining-room was a piece of paper
on which was written in the same hand as the enclosure with the tickets:
"Now you know!"

Mk 4:15 (CEB): “This is the meaning of the seed that fell on
the path: When the word is scattered and people hear it, right away Satan comes
and steals the word that was planted in them.”
“Jesus once said that Satan was a thief. Satan does not
steal money, for he knows that money has no eternal value. He steals only what
has eternal value - primarily the souls of men.” - Zac Poonen.
