I must admit it. I’ve been sucked into the World Wide Web. I’m fascinated at all of the information on the Internet! Just think about it.
• Just on Google Maps alone, actual people have taken the time to put all of that information in so that we can find our way.
• Since I’ve been writing, the Internet has become my university of learning. If I have a question, I just type it into my Google search engine and “poof!”
• Medical searches
• Games
• Science projects
• Financial information such as daily stock quotes
• Searches in scripture
• Recipes, recipes, recipes
• Kids Crafts
• Photography
…And the list goes on and on. It’s really so remarkable!
But no matter how riveted I am by the massive information available through Google, people I know nothing about entered it all. With medical and nutritional information, I can tell pretty easily which sites are reputable and which aren’t, because pharmacy school taught me that. But when I look up a subject I know nothing about, it’s hard to tell if what I’m reading is truth.
God, on the other hand, is 100% reliable. He is omniscient.
In this age of information, we are undergoing some major changes. Therefore, the information on the Internet is changing daily. Especially in the medical world. The miracle drug today will be pulled from the market tomorrow due to some side effect that was not realized during clinical trials (or just not found to be significant enough to keep the drug from FDA approval). Sorry, getting on my soapbox here, let me get back to my point…
Information on the World Wide Web changes daily. God never changes. He always has been and always will be the same.
He is truth.
I am the way, the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the father except through me.
(John 14:6 ESV)
So enjoy Google and learn much, just remember to let God have the final say.
Google is good, but God is great.
From my heart,
Celeste
