Twittering Away
How do you spend time online? It is easy to get so caught up in what happens online, and the speed at which it happens, that it can become overwhelming. Emails come in, new Tweets arrive that you just have to read, Facebook friends post information and pictures, are we just twittering away time? Time wasters is not a new issue, there has always been things we can do to waste time, it just seems easier in front of a computer screen.
However, time online does not have to be a complete waste of time. We can live a life of discipleship online as well as in the physical world? It would seem not only possible, but essential. The digital world can be used to express to the world a word of grace. Our time online does not have to just be about a diversion or announcing where our next destination is, but it can be something about the presence of God in our lives and world. Then we have gone from Twittering away life to finding ways to expressing a life of faith.
