Heavenly Father, today we pray about the Seoul Digital Foundation’s efforts to instruct South Korean
seniors in technology usage. Lord, with South Korea on the cutting edge of digital
connectedness, we know elders are at risk of falling behind and losing
significant contact, especially as the global pandemic has made technology even
more essential to daily functioning. We are thankful the Seoul Digital
Foundation’s programs are so far proving effective and even pleasant for those
who take the lessons from friendly robots like Liku, as well as custom
touchscreen educational kiosks. We pray that the programs will be available to
those who most need them and that they will be tweaked and improved as appropriate.
Lord, we always have concerns with technology as well, and you in your infinite
wisdom know more than we can even imagine about these potential issues. Please
bring legitimate concerns to light, that they may be addressed. And, Lord, we pray
that no one will believe the lie that robots are enough. May human beings look
out for the senior adults in their lives, making sure they are receiving the
human interaction they need to thrive and have their needs met. In Jesus’ name
we pray, amen.
