Viruses and Other scary things

I recently went through what I like to refer to as a scary situation in regards to my computer. I was doing some research on-line for my book project when all of the sudden my computer acted like it had a mind of its own. It closed down, went back up and seemed to laugh at my frustration. I was lucky. I have a "computer whiz" for a little brother who looked at the problem and found the solution.

What I thought was a virus was actually a lesson to be learned. I am still learning it. I am grateful to everyone who listened and calmed my fears. Some would tell me that I was being silly. I needed to step back and take time to listen. Once I did that, the scary things seemed to melt away. I think the hardest thing to do is not let the hard stuff weigh you down.

It is kind of funny. Everyone tells me "Good Luck" when what they are really telling me is that they don't believe I can do it. At least that is what I hear. I have to get past this, focus on the work and tell myself that I can do it. If I don't do it, who will? I can't let my fears of the scary things around me drag me in. I just can't. I have to trust God to work out his plan for my life.
