Some photos of our two darling "boys". Wuzzy is the 3 year old male cat. Yogi is the 13 year old shih tzu. They get along quite well. Which makes me think that if a dog and a cat can get along, why can't the Baptists and the Pentacostals or the Catholics and the Methodists or the Independents and the Episcopalians...... or, well you get the picture. Is the difference because we have a volition? But we are also intelligent and can reason. So why don't we reason that we may not agree on all points but the important thing is who Christ is and what He has done?
Social Media Fast Day 1/2 I have been considering a social media fast. Unbeknownst to me, someone I know was on a week long fast. She reported about how beneficial it was and I took that as a confirmation that this was the time for me. September 1 sneaked up on me and I had some commitments for posting some prayer requests, but once that was done, I uninstalled Facebook (my primary Social Media) form my phone. I can pretty well ignore Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn and the like but Facebook is my constant itch that I have to keep scratching. I came to the realization that I primarily use Facebook to feed my desire for approbation. Don't we all want to be admired and respected? Don't we often want to be right, to have a forum where others are agreeing with our brilliance? LOL I'm guilty. I also realize the other downside of social media for me and that's all the political vitriol. As much as I don't get sucked into it, as much as I scroll past...
