iPhone,aye me

Last night we were installing a new wireless router (with the assistance of my step-daughters aunt) anyways, as we were setting it up she would periodically attempt to log in to the wi-fi through her iPhone. It was a success! (woo hoo!)  Once we established a connection we then set up the password. She attempted to log in again just to make sure  the password was done correctly. I watched as she got her iPhone and she explained that in order to connect to the wi-fi she had to delete the previous connection, re "search", and then reconnect. She did the same thing on Christy's phone (Christy is my eldest step-daughter) and when I watched her the second time I just sat in awe of the simple process. Reason being is that my husband and I have been looking for a new home church. We have been "searching" for quite a few months now and just recently found a church where we both feel comfortable to stay at "for now". I do find myself treading VERY cautiously as we attend this new church, after all it's filled with sinners! (Joking! not really church is filled with us imperfect people.) I find that I am very guarded and am struggling with trying to connect with anyone there. So, last night when we were checking the connection through the iPhone I saw how easy it was to just press a couple of icons, delete previous connection and browse for a new one. I laughed at how "human" technology can be and how we as humans cannot connect to our future or even our "present" without in a sense "deleting" the connection to the past. It brings to remembrance a verse in the Bible, and I'll leave you with that verse now. 


Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18-19

  2. Great way to put it. Here... I thought this was going to be about how your i-phone accidentally found your exboyfriend's old phone number. So - this was a way better post ;)
