It's hardware hell at the moment. The new computer is having hard drive problems, and I lost some of my more recent artwork. Thankfully I've managed to find some of the finished images, though the source files are gone for good. It makes the pictures more precious somehow.
And I'd staked so much (too much?) hope on a new machine being stable and reliable. Not an unreasonable hope you might think! A college friend who visits here sometimes lost money when a company he'd ordered a laptop from went bust. Sometimes "stuff happens".
Got me thinking though ... I can lose precious artwork, or even (God forbid) journals, or cars, health, friends. These are important things, and they matter to me. But I could lose any of them.
But there is one thing we can never lose if we have thrown in our lot with Him. I've posted the hand picture again as I managed to find a copy - kind of says it all.
