Thanks for the vote of support, Kevin. We’ll see if it’s just a phase or not…

Hey ElShaddai, I thought maybe you were just going through a phase, and I’m sure you are. I’ve been through those phases and kept blogging though at a slower pace but we all go through these phases. I know you’ll be back. You’re a really great blogger and you’ll be back like gang busters.

ElShaddai,

Know that, if you decide to return, I’ll be waiting to read what you have to say.

Best,

Mike

ElShaddai, I understand — but I personally never thought of your postings written out of ignorance, I learn a lot at your site. I’ll leave it at that and keep you in my prayers.

@Robert, Nathan, John and David: Thank you for the support! I really do appreciate it. I don’t want to say that I’m quitting, but I need to take a break and sort out my goals and motivations for continuing. I fear I’ve been a slave to my selfish interests and that’s not good.

Another part of me feels like I’ve said all I can say on my current path of focus. I’ve become painfully aware of everything I don’t know and it’s irresponsible of me to write from a position of ignorance (cf. 1 Timothy 1:5-7). I don’t want to be a parrot, mindlessly squawking what I hear or read elsewhere, or a monkey, beating my clanging cymbals to the tune of the organ grinder…

How can I miss you when you won’t go away?

May your “quit” be like mine.

It’s not like you have anything better to do in the frozen North.

Maybe we should blame this on the Kindle.

I’m not sure I can give a hippo to you if you quit. Maybe I’ll send you a Mickey pez instead.
