Worthless Things!

Worthless Things!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who say, “Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.” In Jesus’ name, amen.

People are faced with so many choices. Do you always choose wisely when it comes to what you watch on television? What about when going out to see a movie? How about reading material? Are there things you should give up because, in God’s economy, they are worthless?

Psalm 119:37-40 (ESV) tells us,

“Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things;
and give me life in your ways.
Confirm to your servant your promise,
that you may be feared.
Turn away the reproach that I dread,
for your rules are good.
Behold, I long for your precepts;
in your righteousness give me life!”

After reading this section of Scripture, if you feel it is time to make a change, do so. Do not delay. Jesus is coming again soon.

The Tyranny of Technology: Take a Technology Free Day

The Tyranny of Technology: Take a Technology Free Day

Take action! Why wait? The next “National Day of Unplugging” is March 25, 2022.

Do you feel overwhelmed? Are friends and family being neglected? Are you so consumed with the day to day, you have forgotten to take time to pray?

Perhaps it is time to turn off the cell phone, put away the iPad, shut the laptop computer, power down the desktop computer, turn off the television, turn off the music, and put an end to the tyranny of technology.

Accept the one-day challenge: Do without emails, podcasts, webinars, Zoom, and Skype. Take off the high-tech watch, and wind up an old clock or wristwatch. Turn the tech off for a day.

So family and friends do not panic, tell them in advance you are taking a technology-free day.

Gather in person. Get others to join in a day without technology.

How might life change? Would you communicate? Listen to others? Hear what they have to say? Look them in the eye? Speak without having to shout to be heard?

Ask yourself: “Who me? Unplug?”

Pick a day. Take action! Why wait?

Tell me what you think below and please join me every day as we pray for wisdom by taking part in the Wisdom Prayer Challenge.
