Last week I wrote about trust and this week I have a wonderful opportunity to follow through. When I came home from church today, my computer showed an all too familiar blue screen that indicates there is a serious problem. Either the hard disk has crashed or perhaps a virus has shut down my system. I think it's the hard drive, but I'm no expert. I am sending this Memo from my friend's house here in Zimbabwe.
I wish I could say I am as prepared as I should be, but it's been about 10 days since I backed up any data. ( If you sent me an email or subscribed to the Memo or Bible study in the last 10 days, you may want to re-send you request because I was behind in my correspondence.)
As I write this, I am at peace. I've got my trust on. I have a busy week and have important things to do. So I am putting this in God's hands and I am staying focused.
Well, I'm actually going one step further. I'm thanking God for this situation. I know it will work to my good, although I can't see how right now. I am especially thankful that I have this new system worked out, so I can send this Memo whether I am at my own computer or not.
Are you facing a tough situation right now? Then I invite you to join me and let's put our trust on together. I have decided to have a good week regardless of the news from the technician. God is still in charge.
I won't add my usual close this week so I can keep this short. I hope to be back to normal next week but, if not, I'll be in touch one way or the other.
