Hi, friend, you're listening to the Thursday replay on the Jesus Over Everything show with Lisa Whittle.

I hope you enjoy this re-air of one of our Five Word Prayers Daily devotional shows we aired last year.

Hi, and welcome to the Five Word Prayers Daily, a five-day-a-week daily devotional where we share the Word, prayers, and our heart.

I'm Lisa Whittle and I welcome

you to just five minutes with me, which I trust and pray will be five minutes well spent.

FOMO, F-O-O-M-O. We all know what this means, right? The Fear of Missing Out. Look, this might

seem like a crazy topic to cover on the five-word prayers daily, but I would

dare say it's something the majority of women struggle with, no matter what our age, and maybe

guys do too. It being the weekend and people having plans and posting all these fun plans on

social media is the perfect time to talk about this thing that is such a thing. You just Google the initials

and all kinds of stuff pops up. Trust me. It's at least worth a few minutes, I think,

talking about it, don't you?

Fear of Missing Out. Here's the first definition that popped up today when I googled it.

Anxiety that an exciting or interesting event may currently be happening elsewhere,

often aroused by posts seen on a social media website.

Good old social media.

We can always count on it to give us anxiety, right?

I think we can all grasp what the issue is really in practical situations, but here's what came to my mind.

We see everyone, and by the way, everyone is in air quotes, in a picture that someone's posted on social media and they're all together,

and we realize we weren't invited to that

thing or we knew about it but we couldn't go and then we imagine all the conversations happening

and all the laughs and all the smiles that we weren't a part of and to be honest this happens a lot
