The online edition is also available in our dropdown list. There is a problem with page two of the PDF. The missing text is repeated below.
 
CTRL-Z
Forgive my language, but I want to tell you about a keystroke on a computer which is wonderful.
Now I know some of you think I am more than a little interested in tech. I am. I admit it. But you would be interested too, if you had the option of using this keystroke in your daily life. It would be great!
Sometimes when you are doing some work on your computer you venture into unknown territory: you apply a change to the whole of your document, maybe a change of the size of the text, or the dimensions of the page, or the orientation of the page. Aaagh! Disaster. The screen shows something that is completely wrong, and you ask yourself “What have I done? It is an hour since I saved my work… I will have to start again… it was looking nearly perfect before I did that….” And then you remember. PTL. I can do CTRL-Z [or CMD-Z for apple fans]!
What it does is to “undo” the last change you made. Press those two keys together and everything is back the way it was! Wonderful. I can start again.
It works for single letters you have mis-typed, for styles or formats you have changed, for pages you have reshaped. Large or small, all is undone, and you get a chance to do it right.
If you had a chance to UNDO something you did today,
a word spoken in haste or with too much energy for your hearers to bear,
a message sent without due consideration for its effect, or
a decision made without fully thinking through its consequences
Wouldn’t you love to be able to press CTRL-Z and you could start again?
Well you can’t. I can’t. Your former friend can’t. CMD-Z doesn’t work.
But by God’s grace there is forgiveness for the hasty action, by God’s mercy there can be a remedy for the rushed remark, by Christ’s death for us there can be a new decision made. Thank God.
Now, I think I read somewhere there was a keystroke for reversing hair loss….
