The "Good"? side of social media

 As I've mentioned before, I shut down my Facebook account.  It has definitely been a positive thing.  While I believe that social media needs to be used with great discernment; I'm certainly not against all social media and am very thankful for the technology we have. For example,  I do still have an Instagram account and enjoy seeing the pictures and thoughts shared there.   Not only do I have Instagram but I use the YouVersion app all the time and appreciate that you can go through a plan with other people.  When you set up a group, YouVersion adds a page at the end of the plan where group members can share their thoughts and can have discussions.  

Over the past couple months there have been a couple Instagram posts that have caught my eye and the thoughts have stayed with me so I thought I would share.  The quote on faithlessness is a comment someone made in the YouVersion discussion in one of the current plan I'm reading with others.  

"Rest is a test of trust.  When you're tempted to overwork to control an outcome, trust God and REST."

"There are two mindsets that you can live with.  "I wish others would do that for me."  "That's something I can do for others."  The first fosters resentment, the second fosters joy.

"If you ask, "Why is this happening?" no light may come, but if you ask, "How am I to glorify God now?" there will always be an answer."
