day 1384: The Internet of Things

“I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One.”

The Per Research Center asked this question:  “As billions of devices, artifacts and accessories are networked, will the Internet of Things have widespread and beneficial effects on the everyday lives of the public by 2025?”  The overwhelming answer was, “Yes!”.  We are only a nano second away from all things being able to deliver to us messages to replace, fill up, fix, recharge, move, buy, throwaway, consume, take, etc.  Every manufacturer has to be thinking about this now. Every retailer needs to be considering what to do with the wearables that we will have have on as we walk through stores and along streets. And, along with the hundreds of thousands of data scientists we will need, there will be fantastic opportunity for those who can design and understand the optimal human interaction.

Ours is the God of all things.  He is always on, always ready and always with us in real time. If we think of his Kingdom in a networked way, we are each His devices that He desires to be connected and able to spread His message throughout the world. When we enter our workplace, we may feel alone and in a hard environment to practice our faith.  Even so, know that He walks into the office before us and is there with us at all times. Nothing can compare to what we have available to us, if we only choose to accept and depend on what He has given us.
