Fighting against the electronic monsters of the age

Horrific things happen. You ask yourself why? You wonder if God is really out there watching or if as some critics say....he's asleep. I can say for sure that he is wide awake. How do I know this? He guides my every step. I understand that the world would like not to believe. I do....because to believe in God means that you have to believe that his word is true. Sometimes his word is scary.

What's even more scarier than that though is believing the lies the electronic media decides is truth. It's in believing those lies that walls that have stood the test of time start falling down around us. We end up fighting the electronic monsters that threaten to steal our souls if we let them. We can't let them. We have to fight against being regulated and processed like cattle on a farm. Yes it is true that there is a lot of information floating around that the electronic media presses on you without your consent. Yes it is also true that we don't get to choose which information is readily available and which isn't readily available. No it is not true that everything on the Internet is true. Unfortunately most people get their information from the Internet or through other social media outlets.

Like time warriors, we must be good stewards of the resources God gives us. This means that we need to self-regulate what we see, link up to and what we say on the Internet. We can't be lazy and slack off. We need to be ready to fight the electronic monsters of the age and win.
