Today I have been spending much of my time ‘working’ on computers. My office computer ‘crashed.’ I lost all my files and I am still trying to restore some of those files. It is a strange feeling to have to start over again. I also got a new computer for my personal use at home. So, I am also loading programs on it that I feel are needed. I really don’t mind this too much but I do mind the time that it takes to complete the task. I know feel like I am behind on my regular work.
One of the facts of my life is that I love my routine. So, when something comes along and ‘throws’ me off of it I don’t always react with great joy. I wonder if this part of my personality has stopped me at times from being open to the Holy Spirit moving in my life. After all God does shake us off of the routines from time to time. So, I guess I will continue getting those computers organized the way I want them to be organized. But I also hope I will be more open to God’s many surprise moves in my life.
