52 - Mobiles

'Call to me and I will answer you...' (Jeremiah 33:3)

Couldn't resist using that verse! 
It may vary just how much you're thankful for the invention of mobiles. The older generation might wish vehemently that they hadn't been, perhaps because all they can see of their children is the tops of their heads as they bend over the phones in their hands, feverishly texting away... 

Sorry. That was a major sterotype. But you get my point.

On the other hand, there is a lot we can give thanks for when it comes to mobiles. I didn't realise just how much until mine would get broken or lost. 

We have easy communication in our hands - just a quick text, and we can have the information we need, even if the person isn't at home.

Go out somewhere, you don't need to worry about getting lost, because you can just text or ring and arrange somewhere to meet again. 

Once, our family were out at the shops and Mum wanted to collect something she'd ordered but couldn't without a certain email, which hadn't been printed off before we left. No problem, we were able to get it up on a mobile. 

Forgot your camera? Just use your phone.

Those are just a few examples of reasons we can be thankful for mobiles. Thankful that God gave us the brains to create new ways of passing messages!
