“LIKES” do they define your identity?

‘There is more to this life than trying to accomplish “LIKES.”

I’ve found that our lives are driven by external accomplishments. Looking into adults dealing with anxiety to the youth experiencing depression by the endless performance to maintain their social-networking profiles.

Why people feel so empty inside is a reaction to their online world. How we rush to the sound of the clingy notification. How adrenaline raises as the push button of a “LIKE” is tapped on our social media page. We often experience envy as we compare ourselves to those who seem to have it “all together.”

While that is certainly not true you are exploiting yourself to uncertainty, pain, and loneliness that dwells from an online site that gives you no comfort in return. You continue spending time, draining your energy to a social media page that will slowly fade your identity. Heavenly Father, who knows exactly what you’re going through, who knows exactly how to comfort you, even allowing you to see and accomplish the impossible without using the wires of technology can guide you to your eternal worth.

In my experience yes, I believe there is MORE to this life than the “LIKES” you view on a daily basis.

With God, with faith, and finding the real version of YOUSELF, you will rediscover who you are made in the image of God!

To this I leave with you in the name of Jesus Christ Amen

  1. If that’s the way you feel about likes don’t get into them media’s. And if that would be all you could afford to buy to eat is GENERICS there is absolutely nothing wrong with that some people are fake and they have things because of other people..

  3. Yes that is true how we just like to hit the like button and maybe it’s cause we know that person or hurt their feelings or them mad at you but with God there is no likes or dislikes cause he loves and forgives us all he wants from us is to believe and have more faith in him he can do the impossible Jesus is love
