I thought you might find this interesting, just to put things into perspective for you and how good we have it for communications these days , and how much things change.-
Believe it or not, this was my first computer, I actually had one of these, a "Commodore Vic 20"
The "hard drive" was a cassette tape deck.
The monitor was a 13" black & white tv (yes, they really did exist)
Software? What's that? For "Programs" you had to buy a separate book of code and type it in to write the 'program' yourself.
They said you could get the thing to play space invaders - like you see in the pictures - but the code you had to type for that 'program' was about 20 pages long; I could never make it work...
When? It was about 1980 when I had one.
(hey, that's only 31 years ago!)
This was the hard drive...
I posted this for fun, but also to make a point.
Things change, drastically and quickly, but not with regard to God. He is the same, now, and forever. The God that we worship today is the same God that spoke to Moses through the burning bush, that told Noah to build an ark, and that sent His Son Jesus as our Lord and Savior to die for our sins - over 2,000 years ago!
Everything we have in this world; everything that we work for day in and day out, that we see on the web and on TV and decide that we must have to be happy - it's all going to fade away in the end.
Not too long from now people will look at pictures of our stuff, like my Commodore Vic 20 here, and wonder what we were thinking.
It's our relationships with each other and with God that will last, that's all we really have. God calls us to accept each other and to love each other more than we love ourselves - or material things.
Food for thought - what is the most important thing in your life?
What is it that you spend more time thinking about than anything else?
The answer to the second question answers the first!
...God want's it to be Him!
