If there’s one thing that gets me praying and talking to God at odd hours,
it’s when my internet / pc isn’t working properly and a deadline is looming.
In a generation where almost everything we do depends on our pc,
i’m sure we’ve all had our experiences with internet security.
The thing is, HOW MANY of us take precaution?
I can’t say i do…
i always leave it up to my IT expert brother to take care of these things for me. 
But if you’re not an IT kinda person of have one as a friend/family member,
then you really have to take things into YOUR OWN HANDS.
