I’m living in the Stone Age!
I feel almost like that guy on the Flintstones that picks up a hammer and chisel, takes dictation, and chisels out a letter.
Something went wrong with my printer last week and I didn’t get to print out bulletins for Sunday morning church.
Not only that, I had to write my sermon notes by hand!
Can you believe it!
What is this world coming to?
I found my handwriting somewhat strained and shaky; it didn’t take long before my hand was wanting to cramp up.
I have signed up for paying most of my bills on-line just so I don’t have to write checks.
It would seem in an age of computers, email, and texting; the art of writing has slowed down and diminished.
People no longer write a letter to family and friends.
It’s keyboarded on Facebook or by email.
Texting on a cell phone is one of the top ways to keep in touch.
I must admit that I do both.
Perhaps this is leading to an unforeseen problem.
It is written keep my commands and live, and my law as the apple of your eye. Bind them on your fingers; Write them on the tablet of your heart. Prov 7:2-3
Our nation is forgetting the Law of God.
It’s not written on the tablets of hearts.
Is it because we no longer live in a quill and ink world?
Copying is not done by hand but by Xerox.
Little children know how to use a keyboard before they know how to hold a pencil.
Will it come to the point (and it may already be) where a preacher will mass-text a sermon or send it around by email?
To be honest, if felt good to write and I need to do it more often.
That includes writing His word on the tablet of my heart!
