connected.

i have a facebook, a twitter, a myspace and a blog. a myspace you ask? yes, i have had one since the beginning. i tweet? i merely read other people's tweets because i am lousy at posting my own. i facebook? yes, i am curious what other people are doing in their lives. i blog? on the rare occasion i feel like people might care what i'm thinking.

but really, all of the things i follow, comment and "like" are doing me no good. there are so many other things that i should be spending time doing. one thing in particular that i'm so glad i've been taking the time to do is my daily devotional time.

connecting with God, and his Word should be the most important thing. not what people are doing tonight, or how much time people are going to the gym.

i feel guilty. my time learning more about the "world", and material things, the things that will fade away, are taking away from the time i could be spending with God. but i can only blame myself. i should only really be using these media outlets as a way to spread the Word and truth.

i pray that my priorities get straightened. that i can give myself fully to God and his plan. that i can think of myself less, and think about others more. that i can become a tool for God's wonderful plan. that i get more connected to the things that matter.
