Not only is this the title of one of my FAVORITE songs from the Fifties, but it really has been a long time since I've posted here on MySpace. I'll be honest. I was on a really old mac (think OS 9.1...it was over SEVEN years old!) And quite frankly, MySpace was difficult to manage. I hated it.

But I missed blogging. :) And keeping up. And all that.

So, I started saving for a new computer. It had to be a laptop and it had to be a Mac, because that's what I know. So I started taking every freelance gig I could get my hands on. And it was slow going, 'cause Macs are EXPENSIVE. But I thought my iBook would hold out.

It wasn't.

And to be honest, I REALLY didn't want to buy another computer. Because I'd rather put the money towards a bill than a new laptop. But the new laptop would actually help me with more freelance, because MANY places on the world wide web were beyond my old browser's reach.

So I prayed. And I did what Scripture says, "Whatever your hands find to do, do it with all your might."

And here I am. One new, shiny MacBookPro later, here I am. Wow. The internet is so much faster and the screen resolution is amazing.

But the most amazing thing is God's faithfulness. My old computer was dying a quicker death than I had expected, and I didn't think my freelance would catch up. But God provided in a most unexpected way. My parents gave me money. I never asked them for it, and they didn't know what I was saving for, they just wanted to give me money to help out with bills or whatever I needed it for. And it was EXACTLY what I needed for my laptop. And when mom and I went to buy it, it was the LAST one in the store.

Now, everytime I see this computer, I see God's immense faithfulness to me. Not because this was such a big thing or because I wanted it, but because it reminds me that God really cares about the things that stress me out.

And He really cares about the things that bring me joy, too.

But I'll save that for another blog...
