I've been wanting to fast from social media for a few years now. After seeing a good friend of mine do it, I decided to deactivate Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat. I deleted the apps off my phone and I have a fresh new start with no distractions. I even deleted Netflix and Xfinity so I won't be tempted to watch movies or television shows.
This will get me to open my bible more instead of watching a YouTube video. I need to put God first in my life instead of social media and technology, which is just a distraction right now. Not to mention, I start student teaching on the 16th and my class starts on the 22nd. This will allow me not to procrastinate and to have no excuse why I'm not getting homework and lessons done.
So, I'm giving myself 30 dsy. It might extend to 40 days, maybe even 60 days. We'll let the Lord decide how long I'm away from social media.
My goal is to get closer to God through His Word, prayer, and fasting. I will try blog about my days and I will try to keep this up day to day. Pray for me!!
