Talk a Lot But About What??

March 22, 2026

Well, so far this week, I haven’t pondered on anything. Nothing. Nada. The end. Just joking. I have actually been pondering on a lot of things, but I only have so much room to type, so here goes. We humans like to talk. A lot. If you type a post about any subject, as long as you keep it short, you will receive a boatload of comments, some of which will agree with you, while others will disagree. You don’t have time to add context, because people generally won’t read long posts. So, what you end up with is a bunch of people who have never met each other arguing over mostly out-of-context statements on both sides of an issue, and nothing is accomplished, except a never-ending argument, which makes the social media platforms happy because they are getting a ton of clicks. It’s not just on social media, either. If you go inside nearly any fast-food restaurant when it is busy, you'll find most of the folks talking, and the noise level is usually at a low roar. I’ll type it again. We humans like to talk. A lot. I too am human, and I too like to talk. Let’s go a little deeper. What are we humans talking about? We talk about anything and everything. The weather, March Madness, the stock market, and politics, just to name a few. The subject matter is endless, and so is the conversation. Let’s go down one more level. As Christ followers, what are we talking about? If you are like me, we are talking about the same thing non-Christians are talking about. I read a bible verse this morning that made me stop and ponder. “Give thanks to the LORD and proclaim his greatness. Let the whole world know what he has done” Psalms 105:1 NLT. What if I spent a lot less time commenting on vague Facebook posts and carrying on meaningless conversations, and a lot more time talking to others about how great God is and how much He has done for me?  What if you did the same thing? One more time, we humans like to talk. A lot. Let’s talk a lot about God, and we will see the quality of our conversations improve. Who knows? We might even be able to lead someone to Jesus.

Be blessed and then go be a blessing . . . Bro. Andy
