Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn.
I got an email "2 things today." I verbally reply, "Honey I have way more than two things to do everyday and your emailing doesn't make it any easier." Some places seem to think people don't have lives, a family, or a business that they maintain. Let's just drop more on your "to do list." This is about boundaries. This is about respecting those boundaries and setting up them if you don't have them. It's about saying the word NO. You need to decide what is important to you. What on your "to do" list can wait and what can't. In regards to tech, you may have to say the word "No" to yourself from time to time, or your kids. Example social media time, no cellphones at the dinner table, timeouts, and family time. Like when you go to the theater and it asks you to silence your phone. These "rules" we run into in life are boundaries as well. They are boundaries businesses, cities, or law enforcement sets up to keep us safe and secure. The Bible says a lot about respect and boundaries. There is a lot in the old and the new testament. Many of the teachings of Christ have him addressing this very issue. That's how important it is to figure out what your boundaries are and then stand by them. Be prepared, some may not be happy with your new found strength. Stand strong and remember, that boundaries are set up for your wellbeing. You can start small by limiting yourself on certain things you really enjoy, to putting your foot down to things you don't like. Proverbs 25:28 - "A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls."
