So, Barbi, my BF and I are sitting in the stands watching the Chargers' game rolling our eyes every five minutes either at the stinkin' team in front of us or at our annoyingly loud husbands screaming "holding" on every play. Then something really exciting happens, a Packer pushes a Charger and they almost brawl. "Did you see that?!" "What?" "Oh, that guy nailed him!"
We both fell silent. Simultaneously we blurted out that we wanted to lift our remotes and rewind the play. Note to selves: we are watching real life. Good reminder that with our children...pay attention the first time, we don't want to miss it.
It caused me to think about how conditioned we are to modern technology and where our Lord fits in...my conclusions in bullet points:
- God created the recording device of the subconscious mind, the world deduced the camcorder.
- God created the ability for our children to record all we do, say, and how we behave as thier parents, the world deduced an outlet for them to complain about us.
- God created forgiveness, the world deduced therapists.
- God's devices are available the moment you think, the world's need a finger swipe.
- God's devices can not be erased nor destroyed and never break, the world charges you up the wazoo whenever these happen.
Today's prayer: "4G That, world! And Lord, even though your ancient, yet timeless tools are better, thank you for modern technology, otherwise I may never be able to remember this again:
