Milestones

Posted by: Sonny in Blogging

success I started this blog on September 11, 2008. Today, 122 days later, the counter just reached 10,000 hits. When I first started this I did not think I would have much to say and I sincerely doubted anyone would read it.

I was wrong on both counts. I evidently do not know how to keep my thoughts to myself, even when I should. So I have had more to say than I imagined. And you have supported me in this endeavor.

I had read of online communities but didn’t put much stock in them. I was wrong. They should never displace real, live interaction with people, but they can be a rewarding addition to the fellowship of God’s children.

So I want to say thank you to all of you who read and respond here. I do personally know a lot of you but I really want to say that those outside of my personal acquaintances really mean a lot to me also. People tend to keep you grounded when you have never met.

I want to thank Shannon for urging me to do this and I thank you all once again and I really, really

Love you all

Excellent blog and communications platform for ministry. Who knows… possibly a “Media Pastor” position in someone’s near future.

Congratulations!

Again,

I thank all of you. It is your visits, reading, and commenting that has made it happen.

I am always signed on and it doesn’t count my visits. If it did it would be would be much larger since I check so often to see what you all have to say.

Love you all

I may pick on you about the time you spend on the computer, but let me just add one thing…
I am always very proud of you.
I joked about you dancing in the living room because I probably would have if it were me…
You are very humble and that makes it much sweeter. Allow me to glow with pride for you and of you!!!
I love you

As I have told you in the past. I am electronically challenged and my spelling is not so great but I do enjoy reading and sometimes responding to your blog. You are a blessing to me and I enjoy our classes. I love you and Tammy very much.

Love y’all

My profound moments do not always come during Sunday.

I need to write them down before I forget.

This speaks to our church family wanting to communicate.

As you can see, my thoughts, whether profound or not, come at all times.

Especially about 2AM.
