The Web Means the End of Forgetting – NYTimes.com

I have read a number of articles recently about the fact that you can’t delete anything online once it has been published on the web, however hard you work at it. The following NYTimes article is only one amongts many: The Web Means the End of Forgetting – NYTimes.com. It often makes me think twice before posting anything here, or anywhere else. What if what I am about to put online will come back to me in years to come, and I’ll regret it. I am sure it has some consequences for new believers. They will always have reminders of their past lives coming back to haunt them.

But I find comfort in these words in Hebrews 8:12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more. God knows all things about me, nothing escape His watching eye. But as a Christian I have the assurance that as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us (Psalm 103:1). But also: Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies (Romans 8: 33). The web may not forget, but God forgives.

Jean-Baptiste’s birthday party

On Wednesday, Jean-Baptiste will be 5. To be honest, I am not a big fan of parties. Especially when I have to organise them. I am rather of the boring kind who just enjoy sitting down with a coffee and chat for hours. As a consequence, we had not put much thought into organising a party for him, but last week our friends Alessio and Katy kindly offered us to use their garden if we wanted to do something for him.

So we did prganise something. We invited a handful of friends from school and church at the last minute and had a simple birthday party in their garden, with a couple of games and a few magic tricks by Alessio. It was great, and relaxed, the weather was hot and sunny. The children seemed to enjoy themselves running around and jumping on the trampoline. I even enjoyed myself, chatting and playing around with the kids.
