Hey guys. So DJs from Air 1 Radio, the positive alternative, are challenging their listeners to take a fast this week, Monday through Friday, from social media. Social media being Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter.
I do have to be honest with you and this morning I did go on Facebook, and I felt really bad, and really... disappointed in myself. It made me realize how addicted I really am to Facebook. Something I was just like, "Oh, I need to check this and I can get off," kind of thing. And my realization it has pretty much taken over my life.
I really want to take time this week to really dig into my Faithbook. Haha. Yes I know how cheesy it is, but it's true. Too many times have I said that I am going to read God's word, pray, meditate, and listen to God. All those times I have said it, I usually didn't do it. Sad, yes. I love this God soo much that I just can't take like an hour to read, pray, or even worship this God of ours.
I will be trying to keep you up to date to what's going on... and how I am honestly doing. I can tell you though that it's going to be great taking time doing a social media detox.
And I challenge you to do it with me this week.
Dear God, I just pray that you would be with all the people who are participating in this fast. I praise you that they are wanting to take the time to get deeper into your word along with this amazing detox for our mind. Lord remind us about the priorities in life. I also pray that you would lead us from the temptation, and keep us strong. For you are a powerful God and you love us so much. And I can say for me if not all of us that we love you and we are doing this not because some pretty awesome DJs told us to, but because we want to draw closer to your heart and your will. AMEN.
