This is why I like Facebook
Last spring I gave up Facebook for a week or 2 because of some transitions I was going through in life and ministry. Well, that didn’t last long as I got re-engaged in it. The reasons I gave up Facebook is found here. The reasons I came back are simple. They are found here. Even though I have moved on from that position, I am glad I am back on Facebook.
Today, I’m especially glad to be back on Facebook. It is because I got encouraged by 3 comments I read. They are:
- “1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
- “just heard a great message about being strong and courageous in the face of adversity…knowing God is with you…”
- “Love is patient…”
Life is tough from time to time and people get discouraged – it happens to the best of us. Well, this morning, I was discouraged. Even after reading Psalm 63, I was discouraged. However, after reading these 3 comments (all based on scripture) on Facebook, I was encouraged and I felt that God ministered to me then. God can even use Facebook to minister to people.
I don’t know where you are at in life, but TAKE A MINUTE and spend some time with Christ right now. Open up the Bible and turn to any of the Psalm or start going through the Gospels and see how God encourages you today.
