Today I'm seeing lots of messages and photos from friends in Suffolk, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire that its Snowing and seems many are building snowmen and sledging. Well so far Today we have had a little dusting but nothing to shout about in Felixstowe.
Social Media is an amazing thing, We can almost be part of someones life that lives on the other side of the world, we can get news and almost live updates about what friends are doing anywhere and I have recently come across a Salvation Army TV channel which aloud me to watch a concert by the Chicago Youth Band Live. (is that a little sad?)
There is a line in Jesus Christ Superstar that says ''If you'd come today you would have reached a whole nation, Israel in 4 BC had no mass comunication''. But what Jesus did was use what he had to great effect.Things he did where so amazing that he didn't need to use youtube, facebook or twitter he used people.
See people back then talked, they told others about what they had seen and the word soon spread far and wide about Jesus and what he was doing. God didn't need to update his status or make a video about it, he just sent Angles made bright stars or used people.Also in those days if people didn't talk about stuff they didn't get to know about it. There was no local papers or TV and Radio. People talked because people needed to learn and needed to know..
Today The Internet is what speaks, it even gives people like me and you a voice. It opens up many opportunities for people all over the world. Sure there is a lot of bad and dark stuff that happens on line, but remember that Light always over powers dark.
So would God use the Internet when he returns?....He already is.
