I remember when I started riding my first full size bicycle. I could jump on and ride it, but I didn't know how to stop it gracefully because it was too big for me. I would ride under a tree, grab a branch and let the bike fall to the ground! hehehe
The devotional today is about moving forward. I liked the quote by Albert Einstein: “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.” That is so true in our spiritual lives as the scripture discusses.
I also liked the section about getting right back on after you fall off the bike. Life has its up and downs. It is a challenge at times. I am thankful that I have grown in the past few months. The events of the past two weeks don't have me questioning God or doubting my faith or doubting myself. I know God is with me whether or not I can see the road in front of me (literally). I know he is working in my life and wants to do more. No, it is not always easy. Amazing things usually happen after you display faith during a difficult situation. Have faith!
Lord, I want to have faith in you and what you have in store for my life. Thank you and praise you in advance for what you are going to do!
Technology Thursday
I want to write a little about the bluray burner technology today. I bought an internal bluray burner for my desktop computer. The thing is pretty neat. It is fast. The special bluray disks are expensive, but they hold over 20 gig of data! Wow! I did a backup with one of those disks. It was pretty cool! I can also watch bluray movies on my computer since I have a 1080p monitor in my office. That is pretty cool as well. The prices have come down a lot since they first came out (and since I bought mine earlier this year). Check them out at your favorite computer store.
Other Stuff
I had a great time last night. I was pretty bored after resting all day. We met some friends at Club Diversity and then went to dinner at Calamity Janes. We had a great time. My hero met us there as well so we caught up on all the holiday news. Very cool!
My eye is not clearing up very well. I canceled my vacation plans yesterday. I am still working on getting all my refunds. One of my reservations was supposed to be non-refundable. I am sending in documentation from my doctor in hopes of getting a refund. Oh well. Stuff happens.
We are going to a nice lunch today and do our party shopping. I want to get the house ready for the party today so all we have to do tomorrow is a little cooking. We will see how it goes.
Hang in there, my friends! I will be upbeat and steady. That is what I do...
