I'm trying to make sure that I...Thanks so much! I'm trying to make sure that I keep this from being my idol. I try to remember that this has become a ministry and it's not about me. Which some days is easier than others. I don't know how much it is really making a difference. I have people tell me on Facebook and at school that they like it. I don't know how much it's doing though. I'm trusting God to let it become what He wants it to. I believe it's a matter of the site being spread by word of mouth that more people will come. I also rely not only on what God leads me to write about but on questions and topics others are wanting answers and insight into. Check out this article: http://www.fallenandflawed.com/why-i-blog/ <br /><br />He lists basically 3 kinds of bloggers: Journalists, Diarists, and Educators. I think I was originally a diarist, but I'm feeling now pulled to being an educator. I'm considering changing up the look and name of this a bit since I'm not really wanting this to be about me centrally. I don't mind talking about me, I just fear it'll become to focus, which isn't what I'm after. I got potentially a 4 day weekend thanks to an ice storm to think about it though. We shall see. =DLukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17391579653039684195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8480879802494466476.post-72277494097839173472010-01-27T00:27:39.002-06:002010-01-27T00:27:39.002-06:00Great post, as always, Luke. I love that you share...Great post, as always, Luke. I love that you share so much scripture. I'm begining to think that blogging could be the idol thing for me. It takes an incredible amount of time and that takes time away from my time with the Lord. I've been questioning this whole blogging thing ever since I began in Nov. But, It seems as if the Lord keeps giving me reasons to press on. You're one of those reasons. I want to be able to encourage you. But, If I don't, I know you're in good hands. <br /><br />Do you actually know if you're making a difference with your posts? Do people read it at school or church? I never see comments so are there others who read it and ask questions or want to talk further? I don't get the reson for blogging unless you know you're making a differnece in someone's life. <br /><br />I guess, posting on my blog for the grandkids someday to know their granny more, is a good enough reason. I'm just not convinced. They could read journals after journal full of more real stuff then I post on my blog - if they could read my handwriting, that is:) <br /><br />Just pondering...not sure what I'm going to end up doing yet. <br /><br />Congrats on a blood sibling - after all these years. When he/she is 18, you'll be a seasoned minister or missionary or youth leader - they will be able to look to you for spiritual guidance. How cool is that!<br /><br /><")>><Patrinas Pencilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08103800317102189590noreply@blogger.com
