Not geographically, of course.
I'm e-relocating from this blog, A Quiet Spirit, to Randombling.
Why? you ask.
I think it's part of my attempt to be real.
Dwelling under the banner A Quiet Spirit implies that each post (or at least most posts) will be about my pursuit of that meek and quiet spirit commanded in scripture. I so long to be adorned with the contentment spoken of in 1 Peter 3:4. But I found that the topic of a "quiet spirit" was the most difficult to write about. That may be surprising since I wrote a whopping grand total of one post about it.
Remember Heroes nearly a year ago, in which I wrote that the qualities I desire most for God's grace to grow in me are the hardest to put into words? At the time I began my blog and named it "A Quiet Spirit," I felt a huge need to try to pin down that "meek and quiet spirit" Peter wrote of. And I promise, I intended to fill my blog with posts outlining exactly what it was. But I've read a little and studied a bit, and I've realized that I have a hero in the area of said quality.
My mother is the best fulfillment I've ever seen of a "meek and quiet spirit," based on scripture and all the commentators I've read.
There's no way I am even going to attempt to put my amazing mother into words.
I also don't need words for it anymore.
Not that I ever actually got many words about 1 Peter 3:4 into my blog.
That's the "why" of the end of this blog.
See next post for the "why" of the beginning of the new one.
