Have you ever heard the old saying, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks?" Well I am here to say you can try to teach an older lady(okay middle lady) new tricks. Marty encouraged me several weeks (maybe months) ago to start a blog for WOW. I gave her the look. You know, the one where it reads, Have you lost your mind? I am not the most techno savvy. I run from new technology. It is not that I don't like it. I am just afraid of it. What if I can't do it? Even better, I am not a good writer. To me writing is like going to the dentist, it is necessary but that doesn't mean I have to LIKE IT!

Our spiritual lives can be like that too! We can learn new ways (tricks) of doing things. It is necessary but it doesn't mean you have to LIKE IT! There are things in our lives that we need to learn new ways of being and doing. It is hard in the beginning and unpleasant. In the long run it helps us to be better and do better. We benefit, our families, friends, acquaintances, and the people we work with benefit in the long run. The best reason is because Christ calls us to keep on learning new tricks.

Don't be afraid! Try a new trick today. Keep on trying that new trick. Who knows you may be like me today, and learn quicker than you think.
