Modern Technology

What a wonderful time to be living on earth,
Technology has made life so much worth;
Information flowing at the wink of an eye,
Never leave home to find something to buy;
So many geeks turned instant entrepreneurs,
Now able to see news live just as it occurs;
Life seems to move with such a rapid pace,
We nearly have run out of time and space;
Our computers seem to become obsolete,
As soon as our last payment is complete;
When our cars and clothes run out of style,
We have to find something new worthwhile;
You see the neighbor just down the street,
Has bought a new car that has you beat;
So you find yourself going into the red,
To buy something better than his instead;
Even with all of this technology advance,
The Bible has not changed at all by chance;
God has no computer for e-mail to share,
You just have to kneel and ask in prayer.
