I’m not exactly Saul of  Tarsus, but I have persecuted iPhone users. I laughed at their religious ferver for apple products.  I have smugly used my “all business” blackberry even though everyone around me told me how their iPhones had “changed their lives”.  I wasn’t going to be swayed. 

Then I saw the light.   (Actually I dropped my blackberry in my coffee mug and needed to replace it-no lie ) ,but saying  “I saw the light” sounds less clutzy.

Last night Michele and I walked out of the at&t store both clutching our new iPhones.  And yeah, I have to admit they are pretty great.  I already have an app that makes it much easier to estimate painting jobs, and Michele has a bar code reader app that she can’t wait to use to find the best price on everything. I found a Tivo remote app that means I’ll never search through the couch cushions again.  And, don’t gloat, but our new mobile plans are even slightly cheaper…

I shared all that to say this.  Life change is possible.  Even for the hardest headed, hardest hearted folks.  If you keep GENTLY sharing your life, and showing that you have a better way of living, those around you ARE WATCHING. Josiah, Garrett, Ryan, Tyler, and Jeff have finally “converted” me.  Don’t give up on your friends and family!

I know that getting an iPhone isn’t exactly accepting Jesus as the Lord and Savior of your life…ok, to some of you it practically is :-)  It is, however, definitely “life change.”   And yes,  It CAN happen…
