For the last couple of years, I have taken a blog hiatus in Lent. This year, I let Ash Wednesday sweep over me without taking time to consider it. In the days since then, I have come to see the mistake in that. So, I’m starting a belated blog and social media fast today.
I will see you on the other side of Easter.
In peace.

This love we believe to be the medicine of life, the never-failing remedy for all the evils of a disordered world, for all the miseries and vices of men. Wherever this is, there are virtue and happiness going hand in hand. There is humbleness of mind, gentleness, long-suffering, the whole image of God; and at the same time a peace that passeth all understanding, and joy unspeakable and full of glory.

John, I will miss your thought-provoking posts. I would be most interested in your thoughts during Lent, but I fully understand your fast. Blessings on you for all you do. May God grace your Lenten season, and uphold you on your journey.
Dang. There goes my favorite work-avoiding web surfing.
