“What we follow in this digital age gives birth to algorithms that persuade” – C C Keaton

follow

a rhyming reason
by C C Keaton

We are all following something or someone towards somewhere for some reason or other…
What will we discover?
Hope to uncover?

Whose charms have won us over?
Will we fall for the absurd
Blindly follow the herd
Who or what steers our rudder?
Will its influence lift up others
Or feed into greed, vanity, the gutter?

What we follow in this digital age
Gives birth to algorithms that persuade
And cause us to disengage
With real life in exchange
For a false reality, and thus trade
Our bodies, minds and souls for cold, unnatural bio waves

But God offers an alternative, a divine counter offer
To the modern day Pied Pipers horrors
When we follow Jesus He gives us Living Water
That satisfies every need we have and more

He gives us rights to be sons and daughters
The Author of all restores and transforms
His faithful followers, reborn
Into the new creation we all long for

Shalom! You are loved forever more!

“Though the nations around us follow their idols, we will follow the Lord our God forever and ever.”
‭‭Micah‬ ‭4‬:‭5‬ ‭NLT‬‬
