So I just got a new smart phone the other day (this was written on my phone BTW). I was so excited that I spent practically a whole day just exploring it. Now I'm in sacrement trying to concentrate and all I can think about is my new phone, how horrible is that. It makes me really think about technology and how it both makes life more convenient while also more complex. The real question is whether I really need more complexity in my life? The Gospel centers on simple truths and doctrines. Shouldn't I be patterning my life after that instead of a complex world of technology. I know that is is ridiculous to escape technology, but at least I'm aware of the situatuion. That's at least something.
1 Corinthians 14:10 "There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification."
What does being aware of something do to us? And can/will the holy ghost work with us to bypass the noise of our own technology? These are questions I've been pondering lately. I really don't know the answers though. I guess it's something for me to continue to work on. Yay! Another goal and concept for me to work on! (Sarcastic Voice). No, but this is important and can be good for me to understand.
