Computers
An elderly friend of mine made the following observation regarding the use of computers. He said, “They are both fabulous and frustrating.”
I think he got it right. They are fabulous when they work and frustrating when they don’t. The trouble is we get so dependent on technology for our daily routine that when it breaks down or doesn’t work as fast as we think it should we get upset.
Thankfully, we have a resource that will never break down or fail. It is the Lord Jesus Christ in heaven and the open line of communication we have with Him. We are told, “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16). You will never get a busy signal; you will never be put on hold; there is no call waiting or call forwarding and there are no automated recordings.
Use this wonderful resource today, and if your computer and other technological gadgets fail you, remember, you have one who will never fail, and who is “a very present help” (Psalm 46:1).
