Twitter

One of my July goals was to open a Twitter account.   I needed some help.

While I was taking a nap in the hotel in Omaha, my husband and son in law created my Twitter account.  My twitter account is @akaiu78.

More than tweeting, I enjoy reading tweets from Priscilla Shirer, Beth Moore, and John Piper. Their tweets are a mix of inspirational, funny, and reflective.

My new Twitter account came in handy at last week’s  Priscilla Shirer Women's Conference. I absolutely love Priscilla Shirer tweeter handle… just a girl …with a Sword.  Reading her tweets what like having some inside information.   J Like her 142K followers... 

Why does she reference the Sword?  Here is the scripture reference.

“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints, and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 (NIV)

Last weekend's teaching challenged me to put into practice some important spiritual principals. Studying God's word is always more that attending the conference... it about applying the truth from God's word. 

What about other tweets ...

According to a San Antonio based market research firm Pear Analytics, there are some categories of tweets …

Pointless babble        40%

Conversational          38%

Pass along value        9%

Self promotion           6%

Spam                          4%

News                           4%

I forgot, why did I open a Twitter account?
