They say all good things must come to an end. It's sad but it's true. Goodbyes? I hate goodbyes and yet life brings many of them to each of us. Why am I bringing this up? I've decided to say goodbye to 11 years of hosting Spiritual Sundays. I have been very reluctant to do this because so many of you have expressed how much you enjoy coming here each week. Whereas in years past we had 50 or 60 people link almost every week, in the last several months the average has been about 15 or 16. I told myself if it ever gets below 10 I will stop. It hasn't gotten that low, but I feel like now is the time for me to quit.
So are we just going to quit "cold turkey"? I've decided that I will leave the linking up 24/7 for at least a couple of months. So those who wish to can come here and link any day of the week and, of course, visit other links.
Again I want to voice my appreciation for each of you and especially for the encouragement I received from comments you made to me through the years. I know you will keep in touch with each other and inspirational thoughts will continue to be shared among you. I thank God for the opportunity to have been here these years for you and pray life will be good to you.

Even though you no longer host the link up, perhaps you will still blog and we can visit and interact. Thank you for all the time you have hosted. Have a great week ahead and blessings for your life.
ReplyDeleteI like your idea. I'll have to give it some consideration. Thank you for all the encouragement you have given me. It is people like you who have kept me going with this blog for so long.

I too am sorry that you are discontinuing the linkup here. It has been a blessing to link up to your reputable site on and off over the years when I have blogged. Thank you so much. Blessings, Glenys
ReplyDeleteThank you, Glenys, for supporting Spiritual Sundays. It was a hard decision I made but I think it was the right one. I intend to leave the linking open maybe longer than the two months. I have noticed though that since I posted this decision only a few more have linked. We'll see.
DeleteBlessings to you.
I've just come back to blogging after a spell...and sad to see you are going.
ReplyDeleteGod be with you.
Love to you~Rebecca
I had taken a break from blogging for many months and was sorry to see this today - I have very fond memories of the welcome on this site. God Bless you, Sandra
