Face Time
We even do that when we're writing an email or sending a text or snapchat to someone who's probably not there. We're imaging what they'll feel and hear and how they'll respond which is probably why we say "goodbye" in a voicemail as if we are talking to a live person. But we're not. Here's the point. Some things are fine to say with technology but some things, especially matters of the heart, need to be said to a real person, by a real person. In today's digital world, don't skip the face time.

When you leave a voice message do you say “goodbye” at the end?
Ron: When you leave a voice message do you say “goodbye” at the end?
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Isn’t it kind of odd that we do that? I mean, no one is listening. We even do that when we’re writing an email or sending a text or snapchat or something to someone who’s probably not there. You see, we’re imaging the conversation. What they will feel and hear and how they will respond which is probably why we say “goodbye” in a voicemail as if we are talking to a live person. But we’re not.
Okay, here’s the point. Some things are fine to say with technology but some things, especially matters of the heart, need to be said to a real person, by a real person. In today’s digital world, don’t skip the face time. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
