Hey, I know this is coming out of "nowhere" but I have been thinking about it for some time. I am going to stop blogging for a time.
This blogsite has been posting daily for almost FOUR YEARS... and I need a break. As painful as it is to say this, I need a break.
I need a break for two reasons, both which are important.
ONE: I have a number of major writing projects that I am behind on, and which need as much time as I can give them. I recently wrote on the need for pruning, and I have come to the conclusion that as much as I like blogging, right now, other writing projects are more crucial for LCI and I need to give them my best time.
TWO: While I always have ideas of things on which to write, I find myself having to work harder at this and to stay fresh. I need a break for this as well so I can give you my best thoughts instead of second best.
Originally I was thinking of going up to the end of May and taking the summer off. Once I had made that decision, it hit me that I can stop at any time and that the sooner I stop, the more energy I have for those other writing projects.
So it made sense to just stop now, even though it feels abrupt.
RIGHT NOW, I am planning to pick back up this fall. For those of you who have a Feedblitz subscription, you don't have to do anything (I think). You'll be notified when a new post goes up (whenever that is).
Thanks for being faithful followers of this blog.
Thanks for the conversations and comments you have provided.
Blessings on your Leadership Service for God and His Purposes...
In Christ,
