it’s the monday giggles…
I gave up Social Media 5-6 years ago.
Best. Decision. Ever.
I have spoken with several people who gave up the same during the Season of Lent this year, as their lenten sacrifice. A few have decided they will not return and instead make it a permanent thing.
I get it!
Admittedly, on occasion, I will feel left out of a conversation or miss participating in an event because it would seem that is the only way the information is being shared – via fb, instagram, or X. But even that does not bother me enough to return. Instead, I have found alternative avenues for receiving the same data others are gathering from those informational portals.
However, I do use Mobile Apps frequently. I don’t mind using them because I can control the information I am exposed to based on the purpose/function of the app.
One of my FAVORITES is the Hallow App.
Hallow is a prayer app. Specifically, a Catholic prayer app; however, many denominations subscribe. Hallow is currently the top prayer app downloaded and used by millions throughout the world.
A function I really enjoy on the app is the Routine feature. The app allows subscribers to create prayer routines for themselves. I currently have 3 routines I’ve created. During my morning “routine” I have included listening to the Daily Miracle, which involves a story of a confirmed miracle. Everything from Jesus turning wine into water, King Nebuchadnezzar’s Fiery Furnace up until modern-day miracles. The developers of the app have even invited subscribers to submit their own miracle stories to be read aloud to listeners.
I am thinking of submitting my own which involves an event that happened recently and I do believe every parent or grandparent would concur that a MIRACLE absolutely occurred.
And I have proof!
Because, by the grace of God, I managed to get all 5 grandchildren who reside in my hometown to fall fast asleep….
at the same time!
Now, that’s a true miracle, wouldn’t you agree?
Oh, how I love them…
hugs n’ blessings for the angels who light & guard – rule & guide us, as we sleep.
