I learned a very valuble lesson today. My oldest daughter's facebook account broadcasted that she had joined a new group...............one who's name I will not mention because it is so offensive. I was shocked, dismayed..........and freaking out a bit. Worse still was that I knew the announcement that she had joined such a group would have gone out to every friend listed in her account......our church, pastor's wife, children of friends............it was a just a bit mortifying. After some discussion with her mother and my hubbie, mom went to confront her. Turns out she got a popup when she was checking her account on the Wii, and hit ignore (she has witnesses that verify this), but somehow it still went on her facebook account as her joining this group. All tecnical sleuthing done by stepdad indicates she is telling the truth. She's just sick about it, and incredibly upset that anyone would think that of her. and all it took was just a click.
Whole situation made me think..................... how many times in my day does this happen to me? how many times do I think I've hit the "ignore" button on Satan and his Popups in my life, only to find that he somehow sneaked in the backdoor? How many times have a totally contrary message to who I am been broadcast to all my friends and people I care about? how many times am I misunderstood by those who's opinion matters the most? Just a click?
Lord, may you always make me aware of the Popups I have missed that need to be erased out of me!
