SENSE-ory Overload

This age of information at our fingertips has cost us all common sense. – Anon

Even after hearing God on the mountain and seeing His blessing and provision, the Israelites still turned away. Wow!

The telephone was once used to call and talk to people, to convey useful information, or just check up on someone. Now it’s used for everything but that and we’re adding more apps each day. A computer used to be attached to a desk for work purposes. Now it’s a pad we carry around everywhere we go because there’s so much to see, read, listen to, etc. And it seems no matter the price – we have to have them. And no matter the situation we’re in (conversing, praying, meditating, eating, and driving) once that ‘ding’ goes off we have to respond. What happened to the slow pace of life where we could think things through and God could get a word in edge wise. It seems like instead of us being more informed we’re becoming less sensible. If God has never tried to do everything at once maybe we should take notice.

Until tomorrow…

"By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work...." Genesis 2:2
