Well, it finally happened. My old laptop bit the dust! After pacing back and forth, thinking out loud and watching my husband’s face for reactions, I knew the new one was on the way. I loved my old computer! I was so sad to see it go. One thing I hate to do is go computer shopping because I never do well with multiple choices and they always have tons!
I go to our local computer store and pray for the right computer person to find me, because I am truly clueless on this stuff! Suddenly, Damien comes around the corner, sees the lost look on my face and ask the great question, “Can I help you?” “I want to buy a computer!” Oh, my new best friend! We bonded instantly!! I told him exactly what I needed the computer for, what I would do with it and what I couldn’t care less to do with it. He begins to look and, voilà, there it is!
I got it home, and it does everything and more the old one did. I didn’t want a new computer. I loved the old one. I knew it through and through! I had used it so much I had worn the “e” off the keypad! It was my buddy, my old pal! It was the one I started blogging with 2 months ago. We had memories!! It didn’t take long for me to get “over it”. This one has the bigger keys with bigger letters for my 51-year-old eyes! It has all kinds of goodies at the bottom my old one didn’t have. It is more transportable, and easier to use! Oh, I fell in love FAST!
Why is it so hard to let go of the old and usher in the new things in our lives when the new is so much better? Why is familiarity so much more comfortable than the new and upgraded that brings so much more ease into our lives? Why do we fight change, when it is so good for us? I truly don’t know, but I know this, I have a dear friend that watches me everywhere I go and prepares the way before me. He perfects all things concerning me and in all my ways He causes me to TRIUMPH! I have nothing to fear because He never leaves nor forsakes me! He sticks closer than a brother! He is everything I need and my constant source of supply and never leaves me lacking. I don’t have to figure life out, because He already has and is going to walk me through it every step of the way. If you have read many of my posts you know His name is Jesus! No wonder He is called Healer, Prince of Peace, Almighty God, and Savior!
I am so glad all that is required of me is to trust Him and go with the flow! Change is good! Especially when “I can do all things through Christ, Who strengthens me.” Even if it is something as simple as chosing the perfect computer for me!
God bless you, my dear reader! Thank you for taking your valuable time to read my blog! I hope you come back very soon!!
