I love Elder Bednar. But then again, who doesn't? His recent talk, To Sweep the Earth as with a Flood, was absolutely incredible. He talked about flooding the earth with the gospel by using social media. Well that's what I'm starting to do here a bit. Anyway, in this talk he said something that really made me stop and think. He said that we need to be the masters of our technology and not become servants to it. It's so incredibly easy to become addicted to your phone or laptop or whatever. To spend hours upon hours checking Facebook, watching meaningless YouTube videos, tweeting. I know I'm guilty of this. I've had days where I don't get out of bed until noon because I'm on my phone texting and looking at Facebook.
So now this is me, challenging you, and myself, to become the master of your technology. Don't let it run your life. Let's all prove that we aren't slaves to our smartphones and tablets and whatnot. Let's all prove we're in charge and start flooding the earth.
