Today, I received an email from Apple encouraging me to reserve or pre-order my iPad. Honestly, the more I learn about this device, the more tempted I become. I am beginning to think this could be a game-changer.
Check out this new ad:
Temptation is real…
Temptation always appeals to the vulnerable part of your heart. The taste will be palatable, persistent and powerful.
Don’t believe me, ask Adam & Eve:
“When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.” (Genesis 3:6)
Temptation is…
- Enticing – It appeals to your hopes and desires (I plan to use the iPad to preach & teach…yea right).
- Enjoyable – It promises you immense pleasure (I can see myself smiling as I use my iPad).
- Evasive – It evades the truth with excuses (My heart is telling my head to find a reason to justify the purchase).
- Escalating – It multiplies your appetite for more (If I don’t control it now, my desire for more will increase…darn it).
Ok, so did I talk myself out of purchasing one…to be continued 😀
Do you plan to purchase an iPad? If so, why? If not, why?
What’s Up Bishop? Nah, I’m not tempted to buy it. I’m STILL not totally convinced on Apple’s stuff for my business needs.
Darius,
What’s good up North? So, you haven’t drank Apple’s kool-aide yet? Give it time & you’ll eventually come around. Once you try it, you’ll question why it took you so long to leave darkness 🙂
