Bisitari Jessica Barefield from post
Dezagun hasteko ezespen bat emanez me. Artikulu hau ez dago nola gaiztoak social media buruz. neurriz erabiltzen, the heart eskubidea postura, gauza bat izan daiteke. Artikulu honen puntua da azpimarratzea social media tranpa bat izan daiteke kristau bizitzarako eta zure bihotza aztertzeko sustatu nahi da, orduan zure social media kontsumoa eta partaidetza horri nolabait. Hauek dira bost modu hori sozialek gure bekatari desioak elikatzen da.
1. Social media zure denbora alferrik dezakezu
Deus ez dugu entzun da, baina merezi errepikatuz da. Ephesians ere gogorarazten dizkigu 5:16-17 duten egunak dira gaiztoak eta denboraren erabilera onena guri eman egin behar dugu. une batez Demagun zer egiten ahal duzu ordez egiaztapena gune horiek guztiak. Bitartean, hitzordua jaso zain, pertsonen zerrenda mantendu izan dugu gure telefonoan otoitz eta minutu estra horiek pasatzeko otoitzean gure familia eta lagunak. zalantzarik gabe, denbora bat edo beste, guztiak Facebook ordu gastua egun batean eta inoiz Jainkoaren Hitza irekitzeko errudun gara. une bakoitzean geroztik Jaunari oparia da, merezi zeure buruari galdetzen da, "Ba al dago zerbait gehiago merezi dudala gastatu zitekeen nire denbora?" Denbora gehiena, erantzuna da seguruenik bai.
2. Social media zure pentsamendu guztietan plataforma bat ematen
social media posting elkartasuna engainatu daiteke pentsatzen sartu, uste dut ondo dago ia ezer iruzkin. kexatu dugu, anonimoki BASH dugu jendea, autoridad pertsona disrespect dugu, eta edozein dela ospetsu pentsatzen dugu esaten dugu, balitz bezala, ez ziren benetako pertsona. Eta ez dugu benetan da edozein erantzun uste dugu. Ez engaina, zure gela pribatutasuna eskuineko arabera, gaur egun ez dago ezer-pribatua izango da stand dugu Jainko biziaren aurretik eta kontu eman gure hitz egiteko. Matthew ohartarazten digu garbi-garbi, "Epaiketa egunean On, Jende kontua emango arduragabekeria hitza behin hitz egiten dute. "Demagun hau abisua hurrengo aldian gure egoera eguneratu dugu gurekin gogorarazi.
3. Social media can fuel discontentment
Noiz hedatua denbora gehiago pasatzen dugu besteek egiten eta esaten duena baino gehiago botatzen, azpimarratzekoa gauza guztiak ez dugu edo falta dira on da. Horregatik, gure bizitza ez begiratu bera zalantzan jartzen digu sor daiteke. Zergatik ez zuen aurrekontu hori uste dut? bere estilo zentzua izan nuen nahi dut. Haien etxe berria modu gurea baino handiagoa da! ez gara ibili bada, Facebook edo Pinterest hogeita hamar minutu ekoizkorrarentzat sentitzen utz dezakete, unattractive, eta zure bizitza propioa underwhelmed. Hebrews aholkatzen digu, "Jarrai zure bizitza free dirua maitasuna batetik, eta eduki duzuenarekin izan, for Esan du, 'Ez dut inoiz utzi duzu ez baztertu duzu.' "Daiteke, azken finean, eduki gure bizitza fededun gisa izan dugu dugu ematen delako hori guztia Kristo behar dugu. Galdetu zeure buruari zure social media erabilera laguntzen ote da egia hori uste duzu.
4. Social media can fuel pride and keep you inwardly focused
Social media azkar gure auto-sustapen podium egin bihur daiteke. We have to ask ourselves what our motivation really is for posting the things that we do. Gabiltza, bila sinpatia edo goraipamena? Egin nahi den ondo pentsatu edo fun gauza egin dugu egiten brag nahi dugu? Ez etengabe egiaztatu duzu zure post zenbat "gustatu" edo "retweet" lortu? Gauza horiek guztiak erregaia harrotasuna eta mantentzeko geure bideratuta gurekin. Hau inorentzat eragozpen bereziki gogor bat duten beren lagun eta familia haratago hedatzen plataforma bat du izan daiteke. Whether you do music or have a popular blog, milaka pertsona entzuten dira besterik ez delako ez dator burura dena esan merezi esanez da. retweet dela gogoratu behar dugu, iruzkinak, eta gustuko ez automatikoki ematen zilegitasuna zer bidaltzeko dugu. Jainko gure bihotzetan motibazioa ikusten du, eta ez da inoiz ondo egindako post bat engaina. I Samuel bezala 2:3 advierte, "Ez mantendu hain harro hizketan edo utzi zure ahoan hitz egiten, besteak beste, harrokeria, Jauna da Jainkoa batek daki eta Bera eskriturak pisatu egiten da. "
5. Social media can distort our view of relationships
For mesede social media bakoitzean harremanak ditu, eragozpen bat da. Erraza da ona izaten direnak maite (agian gehiegi erraza?). Ez duzu oraindik sakona, pertsona elkarrizketetan esanguratsuak? It is easy to keep up with a lot of people you love—and a lot of people you don’t even know (agian gehiegi?). Hasiera xehetasunak oversaturated duzu 300 pertsonen bizitza ez zarela lan ona egin dute maitatzeko egiten 10 Aste astean behin ikusten dira pertsona? Azkar entrenatu ahal dugu geure informazio kontsumitzaile ordez pertsona maitale izan nahi. norbaiten bizitza ezagutu eta zure bizitza propioa buruzko guztia partekatzen social media bidez ez da benetako lagun bat izatea berdina. Jakina Jesus zer benetako lagun bat izan esan nahi du adibide perfektua da. Jesus bezala, "Nire komando hau da: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, Friendship arautuko zuen bere bizitza bere lagunak dagoela. "Status updates eta argazkiak batura baino gehiago da. Friendship sakrifizioa da. Bata bestearen kargak hartuta Honez. Ez da bakarrik birtuala-it hautemangarria izan behar.

This is so true. I will openly admit that I waste hours and hours of my time and days on social media and all the points brought forward, I can directly relate to. I know in my mind and heart that I want to and have to cut it out, or greatly diminish it, but it isn’t easy. But the message you have conveyed and the words of God that you’re using to reinforce this speak to me clearly. Thank you for this article :)
Great post! Really made me think and consider my social media usage!
Very good read! Was never involved in social networks until a little over a year ago and these are some of the reasons why. I have actually been thinking about deleting my social networks to focus on what needs to be focused on. Lot of good points here. Thank you for taking your time to write it and share.
Wow! Beraz, egia. I definitely need to work on my social media intake. It’s very consuming one of the very reasons I stopped getting on Pinterest. Eskerrik asko partekatzea.
Nothing short of blessed
Thank you so much for posting this. I have been fighting with myself about getting on Facebook. Seems lately all it does is make mad angry. This was everything I needed to hear and will reread when I need to be reminded. Thank you and Trip. God Bless.
awesome!
You are an inspiration! So many good points you have here. Praise God for your wisdom that’s understandable and very relevant to our generation! :)
I have been cut to heart by this powerful sharing. I believe we are all found wanting in this area. Thanks Trip and Jessica. May God continue to use you .
Beno, esan! I’ve had some of these same thoughts about social media over the past fee years. Keep writing!
Caleb
Hau maite dut!!!! So so true and I wish more people understood these points!
you’re really inspiration to this generation. Beno, esan!!!
Thank you so much Jessica for these words that are so true and conviction given. May God continue to use you and you household :-)
Thank you for this enlightening post! This should prompt us to fix our eyes on Jesus and less on others and self.
bedeinkatzeko!
awesome…. Glory to God alone….
Thank you so much, for the “little people” with out a voice it speaks numbers to think our “social” value is derived from social media. Thanks for the wake up call !
I needed this!!
That is so true. We waste precious time on social networks without purpose, and whenever purpose is not on ground, abuse is inevitable. I myself i’m guilty of this at times; but i pray for the grace to redirect my priorities.
This is a really good post. Thank you for sharing it with us, enjoyed reading it and it opening my eyes to the pitfalls of social media. :) Grace & Peace.
Exactly why I PERMANENTLY deleted my Fakebook in early 2012. Just like how I gave up cable TV in 2001, I don’t miss either Fakebook or TV. FB makes it easy to love yourself, which is idolatry. Being on the computer for work (video editing) is all the more reason why I do not want to spend time on it in my free time, but it is so easy to waste time on the computer. If I’m on YouTube, it’s to watch edifying videos from other Christians. I HIGHLY recommend every Christian to read this article: “Forming our Souls with Facebook” by Shane Hipps (Second Nature Journal dot com)
Very thought provoking!
Wow, mezu bikaina, I am really blessed.
Omg I was so convicted last week by exactly what you said …spending hours on facebook that should be spending in the word! I love this blog…keep the knowledge coming!
I like your balanced position; not completely condemning social media, yet pointing out the issues/tendency for sinfulness. Reminds me of iLove.
Good points..thanks for sharing I needed it .
Eskerrik asko partekatzea! Excellent reminders of how we should caution ourselves when it comes to social media.
Thank you Jessica for this article & thank you Trip for posting on fb so I could see it & come to the blog to read it.
Great write up! Thought provoking for sure…note to self!
Wow! This is amazing! Every point hit me and I really needed to hear it. Thank you so much. Jainkoak bedeinka!
Eskerrik asko hau idazteko. It is so very insightful and has helped me a lot in recognizing that I need to limit my time with social media. Many of the things you’ve described are all things I can relate to. Spending too much time on social media is not beneficial for my spirit your blog has really put it in words for me. Again thanks so much
Spot on with number 4 niretzat. One to watch – thanks
Thanks for writing this article; this article was edifying.
God bless you for sharing this. I need to be pure and thoughtful in whatever I do online/offline. Grace eta bakea
awesome artikulu! Well articulated and balanced. Eskerrik asko partekatzeagatik
Guilty as charged on all 5 points…Eskerrik asko hau egiteko.
This article caught my eye quick because my job is online and a big part of it is social media. Before this was my job I could completely relate to this. It really can be a time waster if there is no self control. It should be something approached with caution for sure!
I saw this link on my Facebook and was dreading to read it because I knew it would convict me and today I said, “Ondo da… Let me have it.” lol. Just about everything in here is true about how I spend my time online and I am going to assume that the person who wrote this article would not have posted this if she had not struggled with this herself in some way. So it is nice to know that there are other people who carry or did carry the same burden. At church you tend to feel like you shouldn’t admit to stuff like this, because we have created the idea that no one else struggles with it. Just the other day I was talking to my husband and telling him how I deleted some apps on my ipod (yes I still have an ipod and not an iphone, by choice) because it created unhealthy/ungodly thinking. I use to play Home Design where you can create your dream home and in turn I would become so depressed with the house we live in. I still love playing Mall World on FB and confessed to my husband that I like it because my avatar is someone I am not, she is pretty, skinny, independant and it is fantasy that I enjoy living through. Maybe I sound weird or people may think I shared too much but this is my own conviction. Thank you for reinforcing what I know by sharing your own conviction with us writer and other commenters.
I will be deleting my Facebook and Instagram for a while. This was my wake up call. My husbands has been telling me about this and the discontentment has gone too far! Eskerrik asko Jessica!
lol this is so true.. fortunately, i’ve removed my social networking account about 3 duela zenbait urte :D
Great Post!
That’s real! Got me thinkin!
Eskerrik asko! I’m gonna take a week long break from Facebook, Emaila, and Instagram and work on those relationships I have with people I see in my daily life.
Fantastic stuff! I’m a high school student and the part about putting so much stock into retweets and likes is so true! I definitely think their are some good things that can come out of Twitter/Facebook but it’s all about where you heart is!

Really good post! Social media can be a little too much but when I see souls reach and they are planted into a church with their families and serving in church and in their community with the families.. That’s amazing to me.
Wow. This really spoke to me and I appreciate it. It’s so well articulated and has some great advice on ways to reflect. Eskerrik asko!
Eskerrik asko hau argitaratzeko! I’m so glad God led me to your blog today because I definitely needed to read this!
I love coming to this blog and reading all of these awesome posts by Trip and his wife. Keep up the good work you two!!! Jainkoak bedeinka.
wow
this just gave me more insight that i thought i had
Trip and his family are pure blessings.
That happens sometimes doesn’t it ????
lolz !!!
That is sooooo true it can take time away from god also you won’t seem to have the time 4 him we’ll cut it off make the time
awesome read. admittedly, i spend too much time looking at pretty boys and pretty things and getting caught up by all these superficial things on tumblr that i tend to push God aside. it’s a sad, sad thing; i could be reading up on His word and spending more time with Him….thanks for the eye opener!
Wow. I thought I was doing good because I was just on two networks. This definitely helped me check myself. I thought because I wasn’t sinning I was okay, and of course there is always room for improvement.
God bless you for sharing this and thank you! This post just got me thinking about the time I waste with social media and its networks. It has helped me to re-think what I’m doing with time.
I agree with every point. I for sure have been avoiding instagram because I found myself comparing my self to other girls on there. It’s not good to feel ungrateful. I like looking at cute animals. lol
I considered deleting my fb, instagram accounts numerous times. I do think it’s good for keeping up with family members far apart though. :)
Bikain blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers?
I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed ..
Any ideas? Eskerrik asko!
