Contending With A Mountain Of Electronic Gobbly Gook

“Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.” – Colossians 3:2

 

Boy am I glad the internet and social media was not yet invented when I was a young mom. At night I think so many of the young moms might be tempted to be on their devices at the expense of a relationship with their children. 

It isn’t just social media but it is the sheer volume of things you have to wade through to get to real messages from family and friends. Maybe an electronic detox is what in order. Yes you can live life without your phone in your back pocket all the time. 

Do you want a peaceful life where you can really sit and be still? Try this. Paper Bible, notebook, pen and Jesus in a quiet place with no distractions. Put the phone away for a while. People can find you if they really need to. 

PRAYER: Help me Father as I seek to seek you more and the world less. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
