A pastor asked me “Why do you post so much stuff about your every move?”  I was kind of shocked.  I replied, “I believe in the power of prayer, don’t you?”

James 5:16 says,
The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Actually I should be posting more things.  I need prayer to get up in the morning, to face the day, to make the right decisions, and to be able to fall asleep at night.  I NEED to be prayed for.  I know when people are smothering me in prayer, it’s almost a physical sensation.  

Facebook is a wonderful tool.  I am surprised many don’t see it that way. Fact is, we are on this world to communicate God’s love to others.  Use it for God’s glory!

Like anything else, Facebook is pure for the pure, and unpure for the defiled and unbelieving.  Interesting.  People thinking they are spiritually perfect, sometimes see Facebook as a bad thing.   People trying to figure out things, who know they aren’t perfect, see it as good.

I am not perfect!  I know I will never obtain holiness by my works, only by what Jesus has done for me.  In the meantime, we are here to “Go Tell It On The Mountain”.

If your motives are correct Facebook is great.  It’s a GREAT evangelism tool.  It is a great way to pray for one another.  I thank the Lord for Facebook.  Just like the telephone.  (I actually remember about 50 years ago someone saying that the telephone was of the devil.)  You are never going to please everyone. There is always someone out there to knock everything and anything you like.  Just remember that if it is Facebook, the internet, or whatever, IF you are pure, IT will be pure.  It will serve God and serve your fellow man.

How many friends have you reconnected with after 20 or in my case 50 years?  How many people in the darkest parts of the Middle East or Africa have you been able to have a communication, and possibly a friendship with?

Isn’t that our commandment, “TO GO” as well as “PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER?”

Use Facebook!  While you’re at it, pray for me as I post my daily happenings.
