A colleague joked with me today that I
type real fast and that she would have liked to learn typing from me.
That made me laugh as I regaled here of the tale of the time my
grandfather got upset because I was going to drop doing typing as a
subject at Tech in favour of doing Computer Practice.
It took quite some convincing by my
father that in today's world computer studies would be more
advantageous than continuing to learn typing. I can only imagine my
granddad's confusion, after all in HIS day girls all became
secretaries.... tee hee! Don't worry grandpa, I think I can still
muster up something close to 35 words per minute, all while being an
ace on the PC.
I marvel as I think back to the early
90's where floppy disks were the norm and stiffy disks for data
storage were just so wow! Now even toddlers are playing on computer
tablets and smart phones. While technology may change and the
methods we use to spread the gospel are more dynamic, the message of
Christ's love will never change.
Jesus still died on an old wooden cross
for our sins and paid for our healing with his stripes and that is a
message we should never stop bringing to our dark and lonely world!
