Facebook Friends.

God's Boys will be good boys!


I know that I am dating myself, by discussing Facebook with you. I make fun and act like I am computer illiterate. I am not illiterate on the Facebook. I am just very slow. I love the progress. I love that young people find it amusing and entertaining to keep tabs on hundreds of people and their doings daily. They communicate their heart and they read others' hearts. It is a very violating thing, to me, or seems so. The wise person studies how to answer. We must be aware of the importance of the heart communication and the accepting of people as friends and acquaintances. Just trying to pray for all of your facebook friends is a chore, all by itself. Each relationship is a stewardship from God and the most important of all stewardship. God says that you have a responsibility to the people that you know and accept into friendship. Are you minimizing the word friendship? Are you aware of the difference between an acquaintance and a friend? Are you able to maintain the discipline of communicating with this many people? It makes me very uncomfortable to be in acquaintance and accessibility to so very many. I know that this is progress and fully accepted by most people, but I encourage you to scrutinize the use of your time on these facilities and the engagement of your heart in real and imagined relationships. Is it searing our consciences not to be sensitive to the real needs of others? We know alot of people and do we really communicate with God.
Suggestion: monitor the time you spend on the Facebook. schedule your time and attention on this.
