On Wednesday 12 October 2011, circa 6:10 am, I feel God asked me the question, "If there was no facebook what would you have done with that time?" My reply, "What time?" while updating my status on my iPhone ( a thing of remarkable beauty I may add), I jumped in my car and headed off to the Gym. Since then it's been playing on my mind; Just how much 'productive' time do I really spend on facebook, the answer was shamefully little indeed. I then did some mental calculation to see how much time I spend on FB, and I was truly embarrassed.
Facebook for me is an extremely useful tool in many ways, the primary ones being:-
1. For keeping in touch with family and friends.
2. I am a broadcaster and use it as a means of communication with listeners.
3. For sharing the Gospel.
However, I have made a drastic decision one which will be tough, but I will try, and that is to have a break from facebook effective from 1st November through 'til December 31st 2011.
That's crazy Roy I hear you say, 'Wouldn't it be better to curb the way you use facebook ?', Well this is true, but I just want to prove to myself that I can do without facebook, though it is a most wonderful and useful tool.
I may however resurface round about end of November 2011 for one day
i.e. my birthday 8)

In the meantime I would love if you'd follow me on twitter :-

Oh and don't forget that I am on www.CRMK.co.uk/listen every Tuesday night 6:00-7:00pm
Also while I'm away, If by chance someone hack my account and put something inappropriate on my profile, then please contact me.
For now bye for a while. 8)
Good for you, Roy! I hope it will prove a blessed time for you. We all need to stand back and take stock at times, but it isn't easy to do that.
