The Thang: IPC week 4, it was brutal

Moleskine: my niece was hit by a car while riding her bike on Saturday. She was killed.

I don’t know if she knew Jesus as her Lord and Savior.

All of us will die someday. If you don’t know what will happen to you on that day, Please, please, please know that the God of the universe who created all things loves you. He gave his son Jesus as a sacrifice for your sins. If you haven’t put your faith in Him, I would be honored to walk you through it.

COT: Prayers for my brother’s family grieving, Panhandles 2.0 job hunt, Jollys brother

– Moleskin: Put the phone down, or better, don’t pick it up at all. – Americans spend an average of 5 hours and 16 minutes per day on their phones.
– On a Podcast, I heard a psychologist say that one of the first things he asks a client to do is review his phone usage numbers.
– If someone is on his phone for more than 7 hours a day, it’s difficult not to have ADHD symptoms!
– My family and I went out apple picking and while my wife took my daughter to the bathroom, I was tempted to take out my phone, check texts, emails, to-do list and maybe the news but I just stopped myself.
– I tried to remember what life was like before smartphones and what people did when they had unexpected idle time. – Of course, there’s a whole generation who never knew life before smartphones.
