Yesterday as I was working on my computer, the screen went haywire and caused complete malfunction to my file. I did everything that I know to do to restore it back to normal working mode but I failed over and over. This was a sign that something was very wrong! After exhausting my knowledge of computer malfunction remedies I called computer support, left a message and was forced to wait until they called me back.
As I waited I began to mill around my office and came across several projects that had been put on the back burner to occupy my time until my computer was healthy again.
When IT returned my call. I was exceedingly happy because I had completed the smaller things and was ready to tackle my bigger, more important project. Unfortunately, that did not happen. The hard drive was completely ruined! There is a hope of being able to save some of the data but I will have to ship it to Phoenix for IT to attempt the salvage
(I hope it works!).
Meanwhile back at the ranch, I had to disassemble my computer and extract the precious hard drive which in case you do not know is the heart of any computer. The picture above is the inside of my computer and safely tucked away is the hard drive that holds all my saved documents necessary for business. I wish I could have gotten a picture of myself trying to gingerly access the hard drive without breaking a nail or causing any more damage! A bit of good news is that in my office closet sits a brand new computer with an even bigger monitor waiting to be used!
Often, my life is haywire and the problem is my heart. And being the great human that I am, I attempt to correct the chaos myself until I accept I can not and turn it over to God. Sometimes God has me wait it out as I have other areas of my flesh that need the attention of his gentle touch and other times he just quickly changes me. I am a new creation and I don't have to hide in a closet and wait to be used! Praise God he uses me as I am and shows me how he wants me to change and be more like him so I can be used in other ways.
