It's been a bit since I've posted about this fasting experience from facebook. Yes, I've been a little busy you could say! However, this time away that I've had to learn about Jesus has been remarkable! I've still got 7 more days left! Hearing from God is remarkable!
I love to take walks and just listen. Just Him and me! I love the fact that He loves me and cares for me and wants the very best for my life. In return I should give Him my very best. Before I started this blog, I hadn't been giving God my best. I'd been giving him half of my ability and doing things half way.....NOT GOOD...
I got to thinking about all the things I would do and the unsurmountable number of hours I would spend doing them on facebook. So, here is something that I thought you might enjoy that God spoke to me about some of the Facebook apps I used to use/play way too often.
1. Farmville-I was constantly harvesting this pretend little farm with veggies and crops. I was harvesting my neighbors crops on this game.
Jesus: "The harvest is plenty but the workers are few." Matthew 9:37
2. Restaurant City: I used to cook dishes upon dishes for this little game in hopes to get more tokens. I don't even remember what I would win...See that's how important that little game was. NOT!
Jesus: Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! Psalms 34:8
3. Mafia Wars: I started this game and I didn't play it long. You basically recruit others into your mafia to kill others, and I think rob buildings. I didn't like the theme of it so I never dove into it.
Jesus: "The thief cometh to steal, kill, and destroy. But I have come that they may have life and have it more abundantly.
Please don't take this blog and say Alicia is saying that it's bad to play these games and that they are all bad. No, that's not what I am saying. There just came a time in my life where God convicted me of playing them way too much and not spending any time with Him.
IT's been so nice to spend quality time with Jesus! He's an amazing Savior and I LOVE Him.
In God's Grip,
Alicia Roark
