Hi all!

Over the last 2 days, I've been convicted because I realize that I have put way too much time and energy in this whole GC thing. I'd come to this realization over a year ago-- before then I was a major forum junkie--which is why I disappeared. I believe that God doesn't like it when I'm overly attached to things like the Internet. But here I am, back again. And, now that the online debate has come to a close, my spirit is vexed... which means it's time for me to go. I should be spending more time in the Word or at least on Bible.com or BibleGateway.com, don't you think?

That being said, if anyone (including you, Love_6) wants to stay in touch with me for spiritual edification and fellowship, you can e-mail me directly at alyelle@lycos.com. And just so no one will get it twisted, hear me now:

I am NOT saying that surfing the 'net and chatting in a forum is wrong! I'm saying that, FOR ME, it has certain addictive qualities that hinder my ability to keep my mind on the things of God. This decision is for and about me and me only, 'cuz I know my own tendencies and weaknesses. Let's be clear on that.

Before I close my GC account, I do have a tiny little prayer request: I'm starting Divinity school this fall, and I'm asking the Saints to pray for me that I don't lose heart and that I don't get too stressed out. I'm already in a Master's program in counseling, so the MDiv comes as a joint-degree. I'll be working full time and going to school full time , and it won't be easy. Lately I've been getting a little nervous about combining the programs, so your prayers for peace, patience, and provision (gotta pay tuition) are greatly appreciated.

I love y'all!

And I'm OUT! (I had to say it one last time)

Deep.
We'll miss you!
