Recently I had my first encounter with an "internet troll". I am a positive person and when I am online I try my best to stay clear of them. Well I was on a message board replying to someone's thread when this person (who already has a negative reputation on the board) had to respond to what I said. I replied to her post in a positive way but she came back with venom. At that moment I heard the Lord tell me to do not reply to her. However, I wanted to prove that I was right and win the argument. So we went back and forth engaging in senseless banter.
I finally stopped replying when she slipped up and wrote that she only replied to me to "stir things up". So basically she was just bored. After she wrote that, I stopped replying.
However, my day was so off track that I did not get anything accomplished. I realized that I had spent the whole morning arguing with that woman. The morning is when I usually spend time with God in prayer, and reading my Bible. I then realized that Satan did not want me to spend time with God but on the internet arguing about some foolishness. So I decided from now on before I even hit the power button on my laptop that I am going to give that time of prayer, study, and seeking God's face to Him.

These are really impressive ideas in concerning blogging.
You have touched some nice points here. Any way keep up wrinting.
I tend not to drop many comments, however i did a few searching and wound up here
"Dealing with Distractions: Disengage your Enemy". And I do have a
couple of questions for you if it's allright.
Is it just me or does it give the impression like some of these comments
appear like coming from brain dead individuals? :
-P And, if you are writing on other online sites, I would like to follow anything new
you have to post. Would you make a list of every one
of all your community pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
I saw a lot of website but I believe this one has got something extra in it.
Thank each and every one of you for your kind words.
