Faith and Tech Bytes, with Amy Lynn
Many feel that technology slows them down. This could be because they are allowing tech to become a distraction instead of them controlling the technology. No one has to answer the phone or the texts when they come in and the same with emails. I know some who stress out at every sound and cause themselves to feel pressured to respond. You can turn sounds off. You can even silence certain texts if that's what you need. The great thing about technology is, WE have control over IT. If you don't want your emails to be downloaded, you go into your settings and turn that off. If you don't know how to change a setting, you go to Google and look it up.
While it's okay to take control over our lives when it comes to technology, the Bible teaches us to be careful of a controlling spirit. The manipulators in our lives. Controlling people will often use emotional trickery to get their victims to do what they want. This podcast goes hand in hand with my last episode titled "Boundaries." Control is important because we are to allow God to be in control of our lives. Decisions are to be prayed about and we are to trust in the Lord. God will guide us if we let him. Many are impatient and take action before God has given his answer. That's when we take control over our own lives instead of God. If you take the time to pray about something, doesn't it make sense to wait for an answer? After all if you text a friend a question, would you act before you got a reply?
2 Timothy 1:7 "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control".
