Jay Leno recently commented: “Facebook is looking into buying Twitter for around $10 billion. If all goes as planned, the company hopes to combine these two companies to create the biggest waste of time the world has ever seen.”

Modern technology can be a blessing by giving us instant access to news and other information, and by allowing us to communicate with others effectively. However, it is possible to waste time on these activities instead of developing relationships that will allow us to influence people for Christ. It is up to each of us to make good decisions about how we spend our precious time.

“Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”—Psalm 90:12.
