Dependency

Ok, I have become "a part of this world." Yes, sadly, I have become dependent on the size of something that is smaller than my index finger and I call it "my brain, my right arm." If you haven't guessed, it's my little 4GB black flash drive. In the midst of it's whereabouts, it has come to my attention that maybe I was putting too much emphasis on it and maybe I used it as a crutch to help me get through my day; whereas I was not putting my dependence on the Lord. My husband says that it's alright to need help; but I carried that thing more than I did my Bible...and I take my Bible pretty much everywhere I go. What was so convenient about this thing though was that I was able to place it in my pocket and and pull it out for storage sakes.

The saga has not ended, if it ever shows up; I have decided to dig deep into my pockets again and decided to offer a small cash offer for the reappearance of it. Like Bill said in his prayer for it...Lord, let it float to the top. I know God knows where it is, it isn't hidden from Him, in fact I think He's laughing at me at my goofyness of misplacing it. Oh well, it won't be the first nor the last time I lose something and God will bring me back to it.

Well to be honest, this is not the first flash drive I've lost. I lost my first one about a month ago when my husband was in the hospital. Now why would I bring my flash drive to the hospital? That's crazy!!

Prayer: Lord, please bring my flash drive to me. I don't care who has it or where it has been. You know where it is. You know that it contains important information on it...some personal some not. I know that I have been too dependent on this thing to help me get through my day, please forgive me? You have made me realize that I need to be solely dependent on you and especially in those times, you are the storage of all things. You remember the good and the bad times. You are the keeper of my life. Amen.
