~* A 30-day WHAT detox??? *~

TODAY IT BEGINS.
A 30-Day Facebook Detox!!!
That's right. I said it! 
   Me and my best friend Jessica are taking 30 days off from Facebook to grow and strengthen our walks with our Great Father in Heaven. 

NOW some people have tried claiming that this is silly, that we must have some "serious issues" if we can't function in our beliefs and handle facebook. OR that this is something our beliefs say we HAVE to do.   WRONG! 
Neither of those things are true. We can "function" just fine. (how silly..some people are just...really...wow! haha) Nor does it say that we cannot have or participate in facebook. This is our personal choice to withdraw ourselves from the noise, distraction, drama, that facebook can lead to. Media, not just FB, but computers, television, the latest "app", all these things can distract us from the most important things in life. But most of all it can suck away time that could be used to seek The One who created us, the universe, all that is, and was, and is to come. We're choosing to settle the noise and come to quietly, and earnestly seek our Father in Heaven. I feel this will be an amazing month. I feel that it will bring so much more satisfaction than our "updating news feed". This will be SO much more than all of that.  Searching to know and learning to communicate with our Creator.  
Wow <3
  

Now, I'm not saying that my friends and family are not important, they are and I care for them a lot, but so many relationships rely on commenting back and forth on FB. What about a good 'ol phone call? Texts are good too. So these 30-days will reveal the people who want to honestly talk to me for real. (Thank you to all my wonderful friends and family who do call and text regularly )

So, day one! Here we go! I know this will be a month that will transform us! I ask for prayers to keep us strong and for God to guide us in our walks and let our ears, hearts, and souls be open and willing.

Blessed Be The Name of The LORD! 

Thank you to Jessica for wanting to take this challenge with me. :) You are a blessing!!! :) I love you!
