What contribution can you give right now? Be inventive, for social media develops so quickly that your input is very much needed. Or share an impressive quote by your favourite saint, like those in the app Online with Saints. You can like, share and retweet contributions by others, for example by Pope Francis, Tweeting with GOD (or even CTS). When you spend a lot of time online, it is only logical to speak of the faith there too. Every Christian is called to help share the faith with others, wherever you are. You can do the same - in your very own way. He used his computer skills and experience with modern means of online communication to speak of the love of God online. For example, he built a website about Eucharistic miracles. # NOT ONLY GEEKSĬarlo had a great desire to share his faith with others. Your computer skills can be of great use for proclaiming the gospel online. Be happy with who you are, without comparison with others, and choose consciously how you use your time. Considered calmly, you might have wanted to spend some of the time you used to check out new posts or interact online differently. But is it really that important? Only you can answer that question. Reacting on social media seems urgent, for your phone gives you notifications all the time. # URGENT OR IMPORTANT?Īnother point Carlo made is that we spend so much time on superfluous things, while often forgetting what is really important - your relationship with God, or visiting someone who is lonely, for example. It is easy to spot what you could have had, but much more gratifying to look at all you are and have right now. Be yourself! When you are happy with the way God created you, you will look at yourself, the world - and social media - in a different way. Carlo said: ‘All people are born as originals but many die as photocopies.’ You are unique, so a comparison with other people only brings you part of the way.
