by Sistertech on Apr 5th in Social Media, World Events

What an adventure Sistertech has had! Quite a trip! (No, not that kind of trip!) We angels do not actually experience wing lag, or “jet lag” as you call it. But I must admit that after the long and rather complicated R&R — that’s reconnaissance and rescue – mission to which I was assigned, that [...]

by Sistertech on Sep 30th in Prayers

A new day. A new challenge. Think angels don’t have challenges? Ted is a case in point. He is a great guy. Don’t get me wrong. But he’s one of those “visionary” types. Yesterday he was talking to me about Web 9.5 and was worried whether his servers were up for its demands. The guy [...]

Blessed are the technicians

by Sistertech on Sep 7th in Technicians, The Book of Uncommon Prayer

I was meditating this evening on Psalm 41. It reminds me of the hard work computer and network technicians do in their ministries. Blessed is the one who considers the poor! In the day of trouble The One In Charge delivers him; The One In Charge protects him and keeps him alive; he is called [...]

Dear Sistertech, I’m a new sysadmin for [company name redacted]. This is my first time conducting major updates across our network.

by Sistertech on Sep 5th in Letters to Sistertech

Dear Sistertech, I was minding my own business, listening to Psalm 119 on my iPod, and I hear this: Oh, how I love your law! It is my meditation all day long. So far, so good. And a little later: I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your decrees are my meditation. And [...]
