Every Rose Has Its Thorns

Social Networking has become phenomenon. People are addicted to MySpace, Twitter, Facebook, and everyone has a blog.

I wonder what this is doing to us. I wonder what it doing to our culture. I, too, am addicted to certain of these. Ever since I've fallen in love with blogging and Twitter, all I can think is, "If I only had an I-Phone this would be so much easier".

Isn't it crazy how stuff leads to stuff. Jesus said, in His explanation of the parable of the Sower, that some seed would fall and grow up among thorns. They would look good, but they would bear no fruit. He described the thorns as "cares of this world" and "deceitfulness of riches".

Did you know that the average YEARLY Income for the world is around $7,000. I no longer wonder why many of our churches look good, but bring very little fruit. Even our poorest are rich.

Just my thoughts, what do you think?
