I often read about the differing opinions on social networking.  You know, Facebook, Twitter, etc.  I do have a Twitter and a Facebook account.  I enjoy social networking online.  It's fun although sometimes it can be very time consuming.  

Last month, I posted a quick status update on FB requesting prayers for my SIL, Erin.  One of my family members mentioned that I shouldn't have posted something so person on there.  My response was that it was a prayer request.  I didn't feel I was putting Patrick's personal business out there so much as asking for prayers.  As I was driving down to Houston, my iPhone kept dinging letting me know someone had responded to my prayer request.  They were praying for Erin.  Each ding was a balm to my soul at a very frantic time.  

I was grateful each and every one of those responses.  I know some of the greatest prayer warriors even if only in cyberspace.  

So, social networks?  I love them.

    Don’t you just love technology. It can be for evil, but it can also bring so much good. We continue to lift you up in prayer.
