For God hath not given us the spirit of concern; however of energy, and of affection, and of a sound thoughts. — 2 Timothy 1:7
Not way back, I used to be studying a examine in regards to the affect of social media on society. The examine had centered on TikTok and different social media platforms, sharing how people are simply influenced by what they see on these catchy movies. It was decided that folks spend hours watching these movies, being conditioned to simply accept sure beliefs or conditions.
The examine was sharing how these social media platforms must be adopted by others to be able to promote their trigger. Companies might use these platforms to share about their enterprise and promote gross sales. Organizations might use them to advertise social causes. Even non secular organizations had been talked about as they might be used to advance schooling and adoption of values.
As Paul writes his phrases of encouragement to Timothy, he shared that Timothy shouldn’t be dwelling a lifetime of concern, however he ends his phrases of knowledge by saying he ought to have a sound thoughts. That is thought of getting correct influences and every thing in its proper place. In my phrases, Paul is saying to wash out the rubbish out of your thoughts.
The issues that try and affect us are way over social media. Tv, films, books, and lots of different issues attempt to affect us. Society needs to push us to surrender our morals and Godly values to be extra accepting. As an alternative, we must always clear out the rubbish and deal with God!
What’s influencing you and preserving you from having a sound thoughts? Our principal affect must be God and His phrase. Different Christian influences might fail us, however God by no means will! Right this moment, don’t dwell within the distraction of this life, which is able to push you into a lifetime of concern. As an alternative, clear out the rubbish and luxuriate in a sound thoughts that’s centered on God and following His will on your life.
