In today’s world we are consumed in social media, We want to
see what people are posting or where they went on vacation etc. or we post on
media how we feel or we post things that are not nearly as important like who
want to know you’re going to the bathroom (TMI=
Too much info) I will fess up I get consumed with media, I would spend
hours and hours or check my media account like every second of the day. So I
will share with you why I gave up social media for one week! :)
I was encouraged by a Pastor’s wife at my church to do a
fast no social media for a week and to pray about a situation that I needed to
make a decision about. So my answer was okay, I will do it. On Monday November
2nd I started my no social media, on Sunday November 1st
I posted to share with everyone what I was doing and why I was doing it. The
few responses I got were like you can do it and that’s going to be hard. My
thoughts were I can do this! I’m going to stick to it!
Facebook Post on 11.1.15
Im doing something that I have never done and going to stick
to and do it more often. Im doing no social media for a week
( monday-friday ) Today in church Pastor Mike encouraged us
that we need to create space for God, I felt like his whole sermon was for me,
So when I do no social media for a week I will be spending more time with God
whether thats in his word or praying or listening to joyce meyer or joel osteen
or someone like that.
Create space for an extraordinary life! Pastor Mike

So I have come to the end of my social media for a week, I
would say it was easy for me. After doing this I’m going to do it each month
for 1 week. I will be honest after doing this it shows you on addicting social
media can be and I can say I was addict to media I was on it 24/7. So my new
plan is not to spend so much time on media and maybe spend a certain amount of
time on my media accounts. Why take a break from social media? Separate yourself
from the world for a couple days and spend time with family, friends or God.
I would like to
encourage you to try it out even it’s for a week or a couple days. It may be
hard or may be tempting do go on social media,I believe you can do
it!
