Not every thought should become a post

Phil Whittall writes in a recent blog post about a caution he received from a friend regarding his blogging.

But sometimes you can get caught up in all, number of readers, number of visits, number of comments or links. Well I can anyway, and it’s easy to play to the gallery.

I know exactly how he feels, I often find myself checking out stats and counting up recent comments on my posts. I have been writing a lot more recently and have enjoyed it, and hopefully some people have found it useful. I need to be on my guard though, because I should not be blogging every thought, and I should not be writing so that people take note of me.

Every now and then I will throw something out about my personal life, but what I really want is to point people towards Jesus.

Thankyou Phil for this gentle reminder to be careful with our words.
