Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn

You know how shadows are scary in the dark?  The darkness can make anything look scary. It can play on your paranoia creating things that aren't there. Children and adults alike can be afraid of the dark.  If you've gone through a traumatic event it can cause you to fear the dark. When you turn on the light, the darkness and shadows disappear.Don't let your tech problems leave you in the dark. When you have computer or phone glitches, errors, blue screen of death you may feel like you too are in the dark.  You may be wondering how to fix whatever the computer issue. Sometimes just shutting the device down and leaving it alone for a bit helps."Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path." - Psalms 119:105Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

Sometimes asking for help can be hard. I've always researched things on a search engine before reaching out to any kind of support or to friends. Everyone's time has worth and value. Time is something you can't get back. This is something that should be considered when reaching out for help. Is it something you can find the answer yourself or do you indeed need that helping hand? Please don't misunderstand me. You should never feel embarrassed when reaching out for help. You can also always find instructional videos on YouTube. We are really blessed that so many share their knowledge often times free of charge online."Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need." - Hebrews 4:16Tech help:https://askleo.com/https://techcrunch.com/https://www.pcmag.com/https://join.komando.com/63c70c3a/Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

The art of distraction is Satan's most powerful tool. If Satan cannot have your heart, he’ll do his best to distract you. Are you busy? Are you looking left when you should be looking right? Are you carrying a platter of things to do instead of a plate? This can be considered by design.Romans 8:1 People who struggle with distraction should not feel condemned, and good stewardship for them may look like fighting distraction as best they can.Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

You know your relationship has gotten closer when you start to discover "triggers" ON BOTH SIDES. It's a terrible thing to be triggered and even more to trigger someone else. But I have to say, that this I don't think would of ever happened if you didn't really love the person and they didn't really love you back. The key is to discuss this, not hold it inside and grow resentment.  You need to keep your computer in working order to avoid "bad triggers." Get yourself a virus scanner, and or firewall today to keep things running smoothly. There are some really good free versions out there. I've used Trend Micro, and Malwarebytes to name a few.Philippians 1:4Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

'Nothing to lose' is a state of absolute surrender to God. It’s recognizing that your life is no longer yours, but belongs to God. Everything you have, are and will be, are now His. It’s saying, “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.” (Galatians 2:20).If a person has nothing to lose or believes they have nothing to lose, what holds them to their moral code? What stops them from inflicting pain towards others? What prevents them from breaking the law? Is it the law itself? Is it their moral code, or belief in a higher body or power?  I personally have felt this way many times. And having done so I understand why people do what they do and then the media blames mental illness.What about Tech? Well, If you lose your phone, laptop or any other item that you have data stored on, you are likely to panic. You may very well be highly upset or scared even. It can even be worse if you got hit with ransomware or your hard drive fails entirely. Let's face it any personal loss of data can be painful.Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

When you carry a life inside, you start to second guess what you are eating, drinking, and all around doing. If we all treated our bodies as though there was another life inside what would happen? We carry the Holy Spirit inside of us and our bodies are a temple that we abuse nearly daily. Overworking, overeating, oversleeping. These overages over time add up. Overweight, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, stress, anxiety, overuse of drugs, depression just to name a few. Science already shows us that working out releases endorphins that make us feel better similar to those of morphine. Change may be easier for women to adapt to in this situation as carrying a life inside is in our nature. But after you got saved, how many times have you paused at the thought while eating that hamburger "is this the best meal choice for me?"1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies".Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.orgResources:https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/disinfect-clean-electronics-viruses-germshttps://www.pcmag.com/how-to/disinfect-clean-computer-keyboardhttps://www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-clean-computer-mousehttps://www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-clean-your-laptop-the-right-way

Social media has become a wasteland full of abuse. If it was a movie, it would be Mad Max.  Online trolls, bullying, attacking anyone for an opinion they don't agree with or understand.  People are quick to use the keyboard to vent. Often times not in a healthy or safe manner. Please, I ask you, if you have been a victim of a romance scam, catfished, a stalker, a con artist, a bully, or any other kind of abuse please report it.

As Christians, we need to be careful what we say and how we say it. Should you smite someone or point blank curse them this could cause a lot of damage. Not just to the person you are cursing or smiting but yourself in the end. Many call it Karma. Be kind to support agents, they are humans too and don't deserve abuse because something may not be working. It's not personally their fault.  "Take control of what I say, O Lord, and guard my lips. Don’t let me drift toward evil or take part in acts of wickedness. Don’t let me share in the delicacies of those who do wrong." – Psalm 141:3-4Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

I have come to realize that Hotmail, Outlook, Live, MSN spam filter it a lot like being taught the Bible, faith, God, good and evil. Teaching it what's not junk/bad what is good/right is hard!  There are limitations to understanding and acceptance and this doesn't just apply to children. Psalms 68:19-20 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. Our God is a God who saves; from the Sovereign LORD comes escape from death.Be sure to Like, Subscribe, and Follow to our social media channels:https://www.facebook.com/AmyLynnsVoiceOvershttps://twitter.com/amylynnorghttps://thevoiceofamylynn.wordpress.comhttps://www.youtube.com/AmyLynnOrgVisit our website at: http://www.amylynn.org

People don't realize that all these browser extensions are actually slowing down the computer and browsing.  Think of Browser Extension like stones - they are pulling you down.  You may have people in your life doing that very same thing.  Cast away the stones pulling you down both on your computer and real life. Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but a good word makes it glad.
