I wasn't going to write this out, but thought I should for the sake of...it might come in handy later on. :)
So, today I thought SERIOUSLY about getting on Facebook. Clearly, this would defy the whole Lenten sacrifice thing. But, I was just really curious about what some people were doing. And although nothing could justify going against a clear sacrifice to God, I was doing my best to justify it. Well, I didn't do it. But it certainly got me thinking about why I wanted to get onto FB that badly. I determined it must be an issue with trust. Ha. Yep, that word again.
The more I miss an individual (distance wise or feeling wise), the more I feel I need to get onto Facebook.
The more isolated I feel, the more I feel the need to get onto Facebook.
The more excited (or emotional) I feel, the more I feel the need to get onto Facebook.
The more "bored" I am, the more I feel the need to get onto Facebook.
So, those are the reasons I seem to be wanting to get onto FB. But I've determined that those feelings also play a role in how I trust God. The more distanced I feel from God, the less I trust Him. The more isolated I feel from others, the more isolated I feel from God. The more excited I feel, the more excitement I feel from God. The more bored I am, the more distant my relationship grows. So, it's kind of a circle that I seem to be caught in, with regards to my relationship with God and trusting Him.
Anyhow, that's all I have for you for this update.
