Yesterday at the Internet Café, I noticed through my IM (instant messaging) that my family was online. I sent an IM and in moments we were messaging back and forth across the Atlantic. I rooted through my equipment, plugged in my laptop video and invited them to a video chat. Everything looked promising but immediately the video became a static picture and then… disconnected! Boo hoo ! It was fun seeing their face even for that brief moment before the connection shut down. (I think there was not enough bandwidth for the video?)
Undaunted, I invited them to a “phone chat” and before I knew it I was chatting away across the Internet with my family in real time. The connection was great and it was so wonderful to hear my wife’s voice. I am not sure how long we chatted; 40 minutes maybe… words cannot express the lift in my heart from hearing my wife’s voice…
Technology can be such a good thing… thank you Lord for this few minutes with my wife and family…
