Lucky's Talk: Lets Be Careful With Our Mobile Phones

I noticed that one of the hardest tasks in this 21st century is for the youth to spend 30 minutes without touching their phones!

Almost everyone is now a phone addict.

Below are some of the things I noticed and we should try to get rid of them:

1. * It's the last thing you touch before you sleep at night.
2. * It's the first thing you touch when you wake up in the morning.
3. Some even put on earpiece overnight.
4. Some still wake up at night to download films, but they can't wake up for prayers.
5. Some are always online chatting.
6. As early as 6.am in the morning they are online, and they remain online till midnight.
7. They have thousands of online friends with whom they chat, but they don't relate with their families at home.
8. They isolate themselves in their rooms.
9. Some argue till midnight about unnecessary issues in their various online groups, yet they have a lot of things they need from God. We go to bed late, and have no time for God. We sleep and snore!
10. Immediately after prayers , you see people pressing their phones again, no time to share the grace! As if all our past and future sins have already been forgiven!
11. When accidents happen, instead of saving lives, you see people taking pictures of the victims with their phones.
12. When a house is on fire, instead of quenching it, you see people taking pictures so as to be the first to upload it on social network.
13. When a person loses a loved one, instead of thinking about the funeral issues, the first thing the person does is to upload the news on social network. Perhaps for comments!
14. We are so addicted to phones! We even chat when we are on motorcycles, Tricycles.
15. Some still chat in the exam halls.
16. Some play games with their phones when they come to God (Religious places).
17. Along the road, some keep pressing their phones, until perhaps they narrowly dodge an accident, or fall into a hole or until a banana peel slips them.
18. Even when we have guests, we still concentrate on our phones than our guest.
19. Some ignore their spouses because they are chatting with “mere friends” on Facebook or Whatsapp or any other social media!
20. Many are those whose phones have made them “hypocrites” and “liars”.
21. Many are those whose phones are leading them to hellfire!
22. Because of your phone, you are the last person to come to God, and you are always the first person to leave!
* God said, “Closer and closer to mankind comes their judgement, yet they don't take heed, and they turn away”.
* A wiseman once said, “whoever does not spend his time for the sake of God, what is better for him is DEATH!”
* May God forgive us our numerous sins.
Please also educate others by sharing this post. May God reward your efforts! Amen.
