Continuing the OutREACH!

It is almost the end to my first semester of college. Before it all started I didn't know what to expect. Was I going to like it... Was I going to be able to do all the work.. Was i going to be able to achieve in making my parents proud by acknowledging what i have leaned and applying it to my life? I think that the answer to all if these questions are positive ones. Yes. I love college(especially because of where I am at). It has been a struggle, but i got all of my work done. And i have grown so much in my education.
One thing that has really stuck out in me is what i an doing right now. Typing this blog out. in my composition class we were challenged to use the Internet as a tool for witnessing. And to get out of our daily routines of how we use the web.
Using technology as a tool to witness in the name of Christ is great!
Social networking is huge in our society today, We have the Internet on our phone's on our iPod's we might carry computers around with us everywhere we go. Or so many of us get on our computer at least once a day if not more for a lot of others.
In my class we used:Facebook, blogs, Amazon, Wikipedia, National and Local news sites to post our messages on.
It really made me think of all of the people who use these site on a regular basis and they do not even know who the Christ is. He is my great and powerful BEST friend that I want to share with the world. He is everything that anyone could ever hope to have in a well working relationship. Because his foundation is pure love, accountability, and hope for a better (eternal) life with him.
But how can we God's chosen people show everyone this great friend? It's so hard, because a lot of them just do not want to listen o what you have to say. But whatever the circumstances, i am just going to have to put my self out there whether I look silly or not. But I want to continue using the web as a great tool for Christ. How though? By what I have learned and already practiced this semester.
