There are always issues to face in life. Sometimes we can pretty much work them out as we go. Sometimes, we need a manual. Or, in the case of the new video editing software we’re now using, lots of time spent watching YouTube videos kindly made by others!

One of the problems with us as human beings is that we don’t like to embrace change everywhere. And software can be one of those things that we like to stay as it was.

As human beings, however, we were – each one of us – made uniquely, and deliberately by God. There was no accident when we were made. It wasn’t random. God made us with a purpose, and on purpose; He made us by the work of His own hands and that includes some of Himself in everyone of us, that we can see in the emotions we have.

We can’t ignore change – it can be good for us and is often necessary. But I do wish software could be - more frequently - rather more intuitive because it matters not how good it is, if normal people can’t use it.

I also think that sometimes it can be less about learning how to do something new, and more about unlearning something we already know. It certainly is like this when we come to faith; when we meet Jesus and decide to do things His way: it takes a while to unlearn what we knew, so God can upgrade the software of our minds to the latest operating system.

So, when did you last surrender yourself to Jesus to see if you needed any updates? Unlike our phones and computers, there is always an update ready to install. Aren’t you glad it always works, and never conflicts with that which is good; with that which is God

Just a thought…
