I live in this word of modern technology/impossible world, created and placed by God given the liberty to do what is good for me, to make him number 1 in all my activities, to praise him everyday. As long as i live almost like him he will never forsake me. Many times I told myself there is someone taking care of me , who provided me everything when I donot have the capabilities to feed myself, like the birds flying in the air , they live for many years now not planting their food , but they are alive and keep on flying everyday. Life is full of ups and downs, but as long as I believe in Him I will survive - I wonder how modern technology affect Peoples belief.

Hello Marika, you are very right. I also think in the same way as you are thinking. In the holy Qur'an, God says, "God is the best protector of you". Probably God has said it in other religious books. God saves us in various ways but we do not feel all the times. Modern technologies do not contradict with the concept of God. Because human beings are created by God and He has given intelligence and judgement to people to make their lives more comfortable using their judgement and intelligence. As such, so long the earth will sustain, people will invent new things for the betterment of human beings. It is belief of human being. Have a very very nice day.

Hi Marika, true enough, Life in this world is God.... Giving Him time even once in a day or twice after waking up to thank Him that we are still alive and kicking and before sleeping at night for guidance and protection. But modern technology in reality sometimes give as less time to God were more focusing in this material world rushing up in the morning and too sleepy at night because of so much activities. Hope people who are so busy and have demanding schedule will not take for granted God and will spend time for Him daily. Imagine we give more time in technology's, laptops,videos,games,socialization but less or no to Him. Life is incomplete w/o God who will not leave us even we do. God bless us.

Hi, marika: You are right in everything that you tell, but to spread goodness and goodness to mankind, we must understand and know why God created us?. Created us to worship Him, and so we thanked and praise for all the blessings bestowed upon us, and God also created us, in order to reconstruct the universe around us. Must be accompanied by worship of God, hard work. I am with you in your inquiry about "how modern technology affect Peoples belief?". But the simple answer, that those people, although this civil in which they live, Did not strengthen their belief in God, but increased their vanity and denial. Undo edits

Hi. I really appreciate that you've shared God's goodness through this post. He said in His word that we should not worry for tomorrow for He will take care of it. And He is always true to His promise. He is the great provider who provides us with all our needs. As long as we will remain faithful in Him everything will be okay. On the other hand, modern technology cannot change anything about how I feel for Him. He will be forever be my God and Saviour. Everything in this world are just temporary and ever changing but His Word will remain and as well as His promises. We have to be patient and be still and at the end of the day everything will come to pass. God bless!

Modern technology is great and it is a new avenue to know more about God and he is the one who have given us the wisdom to come up with new ways to make our life better and to get to know him more, to worship him more easily and communicate with others so that they get to know him as well. we have been given a free will and we are not limited to so many things but as human since we error in our ways we misuse that as well.
