Working within God's will

During my stuvac period, I was studying hard and using msn + facebook until Andrew kindly reminded me to get off facebook... hehe! During this time, I noticed the Windows Live Today pop up page had a nude picture of different women everyday with her private parts covered. I was so annoyed and I knew it wasn’t the time for me to take action until I finished my exams. For the next few weeks they continued to show different nude pictures. When my holidays finally came, I sent them a long feedback saying how offended I was that they are degrading my experience using MSN while trying to communicate with my friends and family. The very next day after sending my long lecture to their customer feedback service, they cleaned up MSN and I haven’t seen another nude picture since then.

I was influenced by a Pastor’s sermon on my mum’s CD, who told a story about her experience of seeing nude magazines in the convenience store. She went to the store person and told them that she was offended and asked them to take down the magazines. The store person did as she asked.

The incident with MSN was alarming to me because I thought about my little cousins, friends and millions of other people who were exposed to these pictures, which were imposed on them just by signing into MSN. I wanted to share this with you because I hope that you will guide those around you who do things against God’s will.
