Freedom!

The other day the words came into my mind. ‘‘Take a break from Facebook for a year.’’

Was it God telling me?

Over the next few days I started thinking, I could just press the delete button, and it would all be gone.

I didn’t do it, but I did deactivate the account, and am wondering. Will I stay off Facebook for a year?

Actually I have another account in my full name which I’ve been using for local connections in a few groups, and essential work groups etc.

But I’ve decided to stop scrolling and stop posting.

The thing is, I kept wanting to share things, driven by a need to evangelise. But now I find myself being drawn back into the world of real human connections. A world that isn’t controlled by algorithms, and the dopamine hits of ‘likes’ and ‘loves.’

I also don’t have much time to be able to waste on social media these days. And it’s all getting too much this modern world of memes, and opinions, and reels that move so fast they’ve finished before I can even process what was on the video.

I’d like to focus on writing a book and maybe getting the message out that way. The only message that matters. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.

So maybe it is time for a slower pace.

I won’t be available on fb or messenger, but you can find me here or on my Telegram channel.

I look forward to having more time to reflect and write here, and hope to stay in touch with you all that way!
