Facebook Persecution...

Here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), I feel I want to discuss things that happened on November 9th, 2017.

As you may have read on LwL, that day was my daughter B's birthday.  So, it was truly nice being able to see her, when I took her the birthday gift and card!  Thank You, Lord!

Later, I was at home.  And, I was feeling tired and worn out.  Physically, not emotionally.

At midnight, after the LwL entry was posted on the internet, I decided I would share it on Facebook (FB), just as I normally do.

I posted on my wall/timeline. 

Then, on a group page I created.

When I went to share the posting on another group page I created, I had a problem.  And, wasn't able to share the posting, there.

Then, when I tried to post on a group page I am a member of, FB wouldn't let me share the posting.  I was again told that I wouldn't be able to share postings and/or comment on any group pages... for an entire week.

Sigh...

Here is what I posted on my wall/timeline (I copied/pasted):

(Lynn McKenzie)... is feeling frustrated, and feels badly that Facebook has once again blocked me from posting Christian entries, for another week. This is the 4th time in 8 weeks, where for a solid week each time, I've been prevented from sharing/posting on groups that I am a member of, and/or commenting. This is absolutely awful, especially since I haven't done anything bad to expect being treated this way. I forgive Facebook, but may God deal with those who are working for them and doing this to people like me. And, may God deal with the German government who let Facebook know that if any postings that they feel is offensive, is allowed too be posted, then they will sue Facebook. To me, this means that Facebook is hurting me and other Christians. Yes, being persecuted.  Please pray. Thank you. Blessings...

Then later, I commented to a sister in the Lord, who commented on this remark I posted (I copied/pasted):

Facebook seems to be afraid that Germany will not like any Christian postings, so FB doesn't want us to do it. I'm being treated like some other Christians have told me they are. Blessings, dear sis...

Sigh...

Knowing that I do all I can for my Lord, through writing here on LwL, and sharing/posting entries on FB so that people can read them, I realize that I am being persecuted... by Facebook, due to what the German government has told they would do to FB, if they don't like what FB allowed to be posted. 

Yes, I'm definitely persecuted.

Thinking about being persecuted, made me think of 2 Timothy 3:12, "Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution."

Amen!  I live godly in Christ Jesus, and now suffer persecution.

Being persecuted definitely isn't fun.  Persecution is also not easy.

But, God is good.  And, my Lord, Jesus Christ will bless me, for I am doing all I can... for Him.

For this, I am thankful.

And, always will be.

Thank You, Lord!


Until next time...
