i work for the local phone company where life usually is pretty slow and routine, and that's ok with me.
this morning was different. sometime during the night, a microwave link went down and now this place looks like an ant bed that someone just stepped on. people are answering calls as fast as they can, techs are driving all across the country, engineers are scratching their head, and we still we don't have the issue resolved. i don't know a whole bunch about microwave technology, but i know that if one goes down, you can't use some ATM machines, buy gas with a credit/debit card, make long distance calls, connect to some web sites, conduct business, etc. one little connection goes bad and life as you know it stops.
i can't help but think about the picture this paints about prayer. as followers of Jesus, we have got to stay plugged in to the source. we can't allow our connection to the Truth go down. we've all seen good people and good ministries lose direction and purpose by losing their connection, so don't drop that link. PAX.
