Google is a verb.

My cousin is driving me crazy.  I was complaining to him that I couldn’t figure out something on the computer, and he told me, You can do more than you think you can.  Then he proceeded to tell me to persevere in Google until I’ve figured out what I need to know. 

I whined that sometimes I find the answer I’m looking for, but then I don’t understand what I read. 

Well, Google each of the words until you do understand what you read.  Keep searching. 

Proverbs 2:3-5 says, “If you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.” 

Right now I’m trying to change of a behavior of mine so that I’m living the way God wants me to, and I keep whining to the Lord that I just can’t seem to figure it out.  As my cousin talks about Google, though, the advice sinks into my soul.  Access to unlimited, free information means having no excuse for not learning to do something new.

To be transformed we need a Bible and some determination.

    1. Thanks, Gail! By the way, I'm working hard and have four posts ready for WOW 2013. Gonna wait until I have them all done before I turn them in, and then I will greatly value your editing! You know, you were one of the very first people who encouraged me to keep going with this blogging thing. God really used you to make me feel like I should keep going. Thank you!
