The internet

The internet is wonderful. The internet is awful. With apologies to Charles Dickens, that's the way I feel about the internet. In seconds, you can find out what you want about events in Chicago, directions to a friends house, buy plane tickets, and any other number of tasks. In seconds, you can be on the worst trash you've ever seen. Even when you're not trying to pick up pornography, it's thrown in your face. And our kids can see it when looking for Elmo or Bert and Ernie. It's easy to see how our society can grow addicted to it in such a short time. But just as a tool in the hands of the wrong person can be disastrous, so can the internet in the hands of one with the wrong motives. God tells us to use our bodies as living sacrifices, as instruments for Him. Our use of the internet falls in the same category. Let's be prudent. . .please? Have a good day! JW

Happy tax day!
