Dear Friends,
It seems like quite a while since we've just sat down for a chat. I'm sorry. I think we need to do that more.
Please, pull up a chair, slide your cup of coffee close and let's share our hearts.
Some of you may be wondering why you're not seeing the normal Share Your Stuff Tuesday post today.
You know how when you're in a leadership position, you sometimes have to make hard decisions for the benefit of the whole community? I consider us a community here, you and me and all the other friends who visit regularly. Over the last few weeks I have noticed that a few of the posts linking up to Share Your Stuff Tuesday link up were not what I would consider “praiseworthy”. They were not things that I could in good faith whole-heartedly recommend to you, though that's what I appeared to be doing by co-hosting the link up.
I loved the link-up and enjoyed my time as co-host. I “met” a lot of new bloggers and learned a lot of new things. But for us, for this community, I believe it will be more beneficial to do something else on Tuesdays.
The Share Your Stuff Tuesday link-up is still going on weekly and you may continue to see some of my posts linked up there. But I have resigned my position as co-host. I would encourage you to subscribe to some of the other hosts if you'd like to continue to see/participate in the link up, as they will continue to let you know when they are posted each week.

Share Your Heart Tuesday
A listening ear
A safe place
Encouraging words
Prayers for grace
I am planning to make Tuesdays our “Share Your Heart Tuesdays” indefinitely starting today. I plan to share something from my heart, a lesson I am learning, a victory God has allowed, a story or anecdote from our lives. But I don't want to just talk. I want to listen. To you.
I want you to share with me on Tuesdays too, or any day you choose. In the comments below the post, or in the Facebook group, share your heart with me. Let's get to know each other better. Let's be more of a community. I look forward to your fellowship.
If you need advice in an area, please ask, though if you post publicly, please be discreet as we have readers of all ages and both genders in our midst. (Yes, the stats show that men read this blog from time to time too. Shocking, I know!) I have a comments policy and will not allow anything that is not, in my opinion, relevant to the discussion or praiseworthy.
So, who will go first? Will you share your heart with us and let us serve each other with a listening ear, encouraging words, and prayers for grace?
