Facebook: Ministry or Mania

Facebook Ministry

 

 

I decided to delete my Facebook account.Β Β  The mania had become too much.Β  Facebook was sucking my life away – it was a time waster.Β  The platform was a breeding ground for dissatisfaction and superficial relationships.Β  I was exhausted by the β€œoversharing” of personal information and the wars waged by friends with differing political ideologies.Β  I wanted to return to the quiet days of reading a book and listening to music.Β  The voice of Facebook had to go.

But, before I could hit the delete button on my social media life, God sent me a reminder.Β  He reminded me that I am to be a light in a dark place.Β  He reminded me through a Facebook private message.

  1. Dear Lyli,

    Like the Internet and other social media, Facebook can be used for evil; as a time-waster that distracts us from God’s purpose; or for good! I get frustrated sometimes when I think I’m spending too much time on Facebook, but I try to limit my participation to encouraging others, witnessing, and sharing links to my blog posts. I pray that I will use my time there and in general in accordance with His will.
