Ringtones

How many ringtones do you have on your cell phone? Me, I only have the ones that came with my phone. But, Kristina, she has tons and tons of them. She could honestly sit and listen to her ringtones for hours and never repeat them. I'm not sure what the fascination is with teenagers and ringtones. I guess it is just the generation they are living in.

Aside from ringtones have you ever noticed how many ringing settings are on your phone? There is normal, vibrate, meeting, outdoor, ascending and many more I'm sure but I have no idea how to completely work my phone so those are the ones I see on a normal basis. I usually keep my phone on normal ring so that I can hear it ringing in my purse or pocket but when I'm at work I have to keep it on vibrate. It will vibrate only once. It is quiet. It doesn't disturb anyone and it is acceptable in the workplace.

So, naturally, all of this ringtone - ringing volume has got me thinking. Am I a Christian with the million ringtones? Am I out there shouting from the rooftops for hours on end about the love of my Lord? Do I see someone hurting and immediately go to them and try to help them like Christ would do? Are the words that come out of my mouth daily only words that are pleasing to my Father? OR, am I a Christian who is set on vibrate? Do I make just enough noise for the person sitting next to me to know that I'm a Christian? Do I get real quiet and not stand up for my Lord with honor? In my every day walk through life am I different or do I just disapper in the crowd?

"The ways of right-living people glow with light; the longer they live, the brighter they shine. But the road of wrongdoing gets darker and darker — travelers can't see a thing; they fall flat on their faces." Proverbs 4:18-19 (The Message). At this moment I wish more than anything in the world I had some fancy words or some awesome advice that you could take with you today in regards to this blog. But, in reality, I don't. I don't have any words to say because I myself struggle with this very same thing. Every day I struggle with not just being a light but being a bright light. Some days I have my ringer set loud and proud but then other days I am simply walking around with my ringer set on vibrate. I honestly believe the only way to find the solution to this problem is for each of us to go to the cross and from there our Father will set our ringtones accordingly.
