Technology is all around us

Submitted by scott on 2006-08-25

Isn't it funny that we can create devices to communicate. They send images, videos, audio, text and more. The Internet has introduced many ways to help mankind. Yet does it? Has anyone built a solution to make the world a better place? Why does it have to be used to make people money?

I believe that we will lose in the end. When things are no longer built to glorify the God of all, there is no meaning and therefore shouldn't have been done at all. Everyone is out to get theirs and to drain from others what they have made.

Does not the Father take care of us all? Why do we rely on our own inventions? How does a plastic heart compare against perfect health? Father, don't you offer us health if we do what is right? Why then would we need to waste our entire lives to find what is already there?

Understanding means to know. I don't believe I know anything but with faith, I understand. I hope that my fellow man can wake up and view what their hands have created. If we knew where we would be today, would we have done it? Are the wonders of man's imagination so important that we need them to live?

In the beginning, Adam and Eve were naked and alone in the Garden of Eden. They didn't have diseases or devices yet they were happy. If we didn't create the disease, we wouldn't need a cure. Everything we create, destroys us, because we lack understanding of what truly matters. Father you are life and the way to ultimate peace. I pray that we may discover it.

For you are the inventor of all things which in turn man uses to invent. But what have we made that will last? Everything we do lacks perfection and that is why we should not want for what we don't have. Because in the end, it will destroy us.
