Truth be told, I find myself ignoring twitter more and more lately... Except for the searches I have in Tweetdeck for certain topics, so that may be more why I missed missing, that you were missed. But I always have the link at the top of Firefox to find you.... And I did... You just better approve me as a friend on Facebook. ;) Peace and love Brother I had wondered were you were recently… Truth be told, I find myself ignoring twitter more and more lately… Except for the searches I have in Tweetdeck for certain topics, so that may be more why I missed missing, that you were missed.

Though I applaud your desire to cut out any distractions (of which there are legion in this world), I have to ask....how are you going to preach the gospel to the lost via your blog? I don't mean 'what are you going to say', but 'how are the lost going to find YOU?' If you think about it, a non-saved person would need to have a desire to seek out your blog - out of every other Christian blog on the web, all over the planet, in every conceivable language. I'm just curious as to how that mitigates the 'go' part of 'go and preach the gospel'? Look, like I said, it's totally your call what you do, but seriously, if we let people who irritate us get to us SO much that we choose to just not communicate any more, well, I dunno. It doesn't seem right. I understand your need for head space, heaven help me, I really do, but I also know how detrimental it can be to build up walls to protect yourself, because you don't only block out the bad stuff, you know? I know you may say that you're not doing that, and that may be the case, but from your post I have to say...it doesn't really look like that. If I'm wrong, that's ok. But I had to ask. I hope you can find healthy boundaries that make you happy, I really do. I'm afraid I'm going to take a different angle, sorry!

Dood, it's always great to see people listening and obeying the things that God has put on their heart to do, who can argue with that?! I am glad that we connected on Twitter, at least a little, and I hope we can stay connected beyond that. I started a wave to see if I could find out why you deleted your account but then was pointed here by @ktackel and I'm glad I stopped by, I am encouraged to do some examining of my own. Peace.
