Here’s
a Quick Cailyn Anecdote for today. I’ve
been saving it for when I have a day like yesterday. Everything went great at church, don’t get me
wrong. The Astros even won. But I had a tough, kind of blah
afternoon. Couldn’t get settled. Didn’t even fall asleep like I can usually do
on Sunday afternoon. So, here from the archives
…
I sat
down at my desk to start working again.
The screen was set on FaceBook since I guess I had scrolled through for
a while after my last work session. As I
reached for the mouse, I missed it and knocked it off of its pad. Not a big deal. It was only a matter of a few inches. But when I looked at the screen, everything
was huge. It was like some 99 year old
almost blind guy had snuck in and rearranged all my settings to super ultra
large print. I had no idea what I had
done or how to even begin to correct it.
Ah, but have no fear. An
eight-year-old was near. Cailyn was
sitting nearby, so I asked if by chance she knew how to fix my screen. She sat in my lap, pushed my hand away from
the mouse, and in about three seconds had the screen back to normal. I made her do it again, only much more slowly
so I could follow in case it ever happened again when she wasn’t around. Thank God for the techno-minds of the
children.
James
5:7-9 says, “Be patient, then, brothers,
until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its
valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains. You too, be patient and stand firm, because
the Lord's coming is near. Don't grumble
against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at
the door!”
Father,
thank you for Cailyn’s willingness and ability to help me out the other
day. And thanks for the really good day
at church. Amen.
