Happy Birthday to BASIC, the computer programming language first launched in 1964.

The idea behind BASIC was to encourage non-engineering students to gain interest in writing computer programs.

When you can program a computer, you can create. Creating something from nothing. While it had its limitations, BASIC was powerful enough to do a lot. Certainly earned its place in history.

If we need to run Windows software, we can, but we shouldnโ€™t let Windows out of its virtual cage.

Learn how to have the best of both worlds: A sovereign computer that respects you, running Linux, that can still run Windows apps on your Linux desktopโ€”with WIndows constrained inside a virtual machine.

PRAYER

Heavenly Father, on this blessed Sunday, as we look forward to commemorating Your Son's Ascension, we pray to You with repentant hearts, seeking to live according to Your perfect will revealed in Your Word.

Forgive us, Lord, for the times our focus has been on temporary worldly things rather than the eternal life purchased for us through the death of Your one and only begotten Son, Jesus, on the cross, for our sins. Cleanse our hearts and minds, and grant us salvation by Your grace alone, through faith in Him.

Fill us anew with the power of Your Holy Spirit, so that we may boldly proclaim the Good News, that the lost can receive forgiveness and new life by accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior, just as the disciples did after witnessing the Ascension. Open the eyes and hearts of the unbelievers to the truth of Your Gospel.

All glory and praise to You, our Eternal God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and forever.

We pray in the precious name of our risen Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
