Until the Whole World Hears

This song is by Casting Crowns who is one of my favorite bands. Their song "Until the Whole World Hears" came to my mind recently. I decided I was going to take a break from Facebook. I was getting behind on my devotionals and I was feeling really convicted. At first I thought I would try my "Facebook Fast" for a month, but after talking it over with Christina, I decided I would go two weeks and see how it was going. This was going to have me off Facebook until Thanksgiving Day. So I went home and changed my status to,"On a Facebook fast, see ya in two weeks, if you need anything text me!" then I deleted the app off my phone. Since then, I have kept tract of how many times I have wanted to update my status, and right now on November 14th at 10:31 p.m, 2 days after I have been on my fast, I have thought about updating my status 14 times. That is a little outrageous. Anyways...the next night I went to a Chrysalis Gathering and we were having a group discussion on what we were struggling with in the past month. I stood up and shared about how my time with God was being filled with other things and how I was taking myself away from Facebook. Someone else stood up later and said how she had taken to posting her devotionals on Facebook and how she had also wanted to take a break from Facebook because she felt it was taking too much of her time. She said when she did, she had people who were begging her not to because they looked forward to reading her notes every morning and that she had no idea how much it affected them. That got me thinking on the whole, "You may be the only God they ever see" saying. So I decided I was going to make the best out of the Facebook situation. I was going to start posting about my devotionals. Its going to be like what I do on here, but I'm going to try to post everyday. I think this will keep me more in a routine because every time I am on Facebook I will think about how I need to do my devotional. And that is what leads me to the song. In the chorus it says, "We'll sing until the whole world hears." We need to reach out and tell about God and put Him in every aspect of our lives. So that is what I'm going to do.. on Facebook.
