Faceless, Twitless, and Textless- “The Night Before”
by Colton White
Well my life is about to take a little turn, not anything huge or really life altering, but nonetheless change. I am going to give up 1. Facebook 2. Twitter 3. Texting
Yes, you read that correctly, texting.
Why?
I started thinking about my Summer and the things I want my Summer to be about, and so far this Summer those are things that I am CONSTANTLY doing. Always thinking things like, “I wonder what so and so is doing”, “I should tweet about this”, and “I wonder if this person is going to text me”. None of those things are necessrily bad, but there are other ways I could spend some time. So that’s what i’m going to do. My goal is to make my Summer about praying for my friends serving this Summer, hanging out with and loving on students and friends, and preparing for Easter Pageant. Focusing on the things the Lord has entrusted me with. Yes, I may not be going Africa or Asia, but the Lord has called me to serve here. That is sometimes hard to grasp, that the Lord has called me to spend my Summer here in Central Texas, but I’m taking that first step to fully serving Him, and letting Him be my joy. So, I ask for your prayers and encouragement as I begin this Journey.
I will be updating you on how this changes my daily activities and hoping it’s an encouragement to you as much as I know it will be for me.
So to my Facespacers, mybookers, twits, and texters: Goodbye…..
i hope you blog about this.
i definitely want to hear.
I gave up Facebook for Lent. It’s sooo liberating. I’m excited for you! Right now, Caleb and I have a battle to see who can give up Facebook the longest. I’m winning.
