I want to say thanks to Logos!!

This morning I was checking out Logos forum. I noticed some threads that got me thinking how easily in frustration we can take things our of proportion, context and loose perspective of what is important. How many times we write things without considering how it will affect others and how ungrateful, hurtful and insensitive we can be. I know that I can be as insensitive as the best.

We take for granted what the developers of Bible software are trying to do for us. They are, after all, people, brothers and sisters in Christ are the ones that are working hard to give us, to bless us, we great tools to help us study the Bible better and deeper.

No tools will ever be perfect nor satisfy every user. It is just software. A tool. A mean to an end. And we should be thankful that we have tools like Logos to help us dig deeper in the Word of God.

I wish we could all be careful and be an example of Christ when we write even in this forum. The Bible tells me that by our, one fruits, people will know if we are real Christ's followers and disciples. I wonder of the way we rant and express our frustration what are we saying about Christ?

I too loose perspective easily. The other day I posted something our frustration and it clearly came out rude. I am sorry and apologized.

So I want to say THANKS for all the Logos people do and are trying to do for us. I know they are very passionate about Logos and that is a great thing.

THANKS

This morning I was checking out Logos forum

I am having vision problems as of late (legally blind.) With some help from my forum friends I was able to adjust my laptop to magnify and invert colours. I can see well enough to read the forums. Your post is the first one I have read. It is a pleasure to see it.

We do take a lot of things for granted. (Sight, for instance.) Next time I feel like griping I will pause and give thanks for all the good God does for me.

Welcome back, Matthew! We missed your presence here lately.

Folks, this might be a good time to put a plug in for this UserVoice suggestion. Go reclaim some votes from something else (several other items have been finished lately so you might have some free votes anyway) and vote for this so that our dear MVP Matthew (SuperTramp) Jones will be able to keep using Logos as his eyesight diminishes.

Thank you David for your thoughtful and vulnerable post. It truly reflects a Christ-like attitude.

Communication is a challenge for all of us. It is so easy to misunderstand others and be misunderstood. This is true in all types of communication but is especially true in digital communication. It is so easy to write a response and press "post" without fully reflecting on how it might be taken by others. I know that I have been fully guilty of this on a number of occasions. You post today is a good reminder for all of us to pause before pressing "post".

David, if I need forgiveness for going O.T. (off Topic!) please extend it to me ...

However .... !!!

I want to encourage my brothers and sisters on these Logos Forums to remember Matthew and Nina and their beautiful family in prayer as the days go by

I ask you, please, to do so in Jesus' Holy Name!
