Twitter

But Jesus said, “Peter, let me tell you something. Before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me.”
Luke 22:34
(Godly twitter: Jesus announces what will happen BEFORE it happens)

Imagine you are in an office space, typical cubical scenario. But at this office, every time you move to another task, you must stand up and yell the change. “Working on daily report” you hear frequently. “Eating my lunch”. “Talking to a client”, Henry yells frequently, “Rebooting my PC”, and so on.

Sound silly huh? That is exactly what we are doing when we are constantly updating ourselves via Twitter and Facebook. Don’t get me wrong, this stuff is fun and can actually do some good. But you must keep your focus on what is really “normal”. Don’t fall too far in to the cavern of deception. The world wants and needs us to believe these things are appropriate. They are ok just like coca-cola is ok, all in moderation.

Spending your time reading God’s word is a much better way to spend your down time. Twitter and Facebook will ultimately drain you more than it will build you up. There is no way, NO WAY the word of God will drain you. His word breathes life in to us.

The key to all of this new way of life in the world is to keep a handle on it. Have fun with the world wide web, but do not let it consume you and your way of life. Turn your computer off one day each week. Don’t hit the screen until night time. Something, anything to force you to communicate the old fashion way: actual talking, or hey, what about a hand written letter?


Lord, help me communicate more in the way you intended us to. I want more time with You instead of technology.
