I wanted to take a moment and say that I hope your new year is off to a great start.
Over the last week and a half, I have refrained from blogging and have only spent a few moments on Twitter. While I have missed sharing with you, I can also say that it has been a nice break from the routine.
This month marks the second year since I started writing at Missiologically Thinking and spending time in the realm-O-Twitter. The last time I took a leave of absence from writing, someone contacted me asking if I was okay. I appreciated that. It was very kind.
So, to avoid causing any concerns, I thought I would also give you an update. 🙂
After this post, I’m planning on taking another leave of absence until after January 12. Oh, I may not be able to resist the Twitter-bug, but blogging will likely be on hold.
I am entering into one of my busiest times of the year. Over the next two weeks, I will be leading a four-day class/training event for church planters, preparing to teach three classes this coming semester, preparing to speak at a missions conference later this month, making a three-day trip for some meetings in Alabama, and attempting to finish another book all by January 12. But, of course, I’ll still make time to have my coffee. What? Do you think I’m crazy?
I would greatly appreciate your prayers. . . . Not for the coffee though.
So, while I am very eager to get back to the blog with several posts already brewing, I’m needing some time off.
My prayers are with you as you begin this new year. It is my hope and desire that you will grow in your walk with the Lord this year, that you will be intentional about sharing the gospel with others, and that you will be greatly blessed to be a blessing to others. May the Lord use you in a powerful way this year to advance His Kingdom!
Lord willing, I’ll be in touch in a couple of weeks. Take care. And, as always, thank you for your support and encouragement over 2011. It has been a blessing to me.
