Testing the Spirits on a Journey to Wholeness?
It's 7:02 AM on Saturday morning and I am slowly beginning to wrap up Week 29 of 2025. I've been at prayer more or less since 5:35 AM, but I don't know that I should call it prayer, even though much of it has been on the prayer cushion. It's been more like deep thought about how to advance my life mission through the vocation of eremitic blogging. I feel that I need to modify "The Discerning Hermit" to give it more fullness. Here are some options:
- The Discerning Hermit: Getting Closer to God's Judgment One Blog Post at a Time
- The Discerning Hermit: Navigating God's Law One Week at a Time
- The Discerning Hermit: A Journey to Wholeness
- The Discerning Hermit: Finding Community in Solitude
- The Discerning Hermit: Testing the Spirits One Day at a Time
- The Discerning Hermit: Testing the Spirits to the Promised Land
- The Discerning Hermit: Testing the Spirits on a Journey to Wholeness
- The Discerning Hermit: Hopefully Healing Planetary Community from the Fruitful Discourse with God that is Relative Contemplative Solitude
I really like the idea that relative contemplative solitude gives rise to a fruitful discourse with God that is healing for the planetary community. But that is too much text for the 100-character limit of a blog title on Blogger. Toward the end of this session, which arrives around 2:00 PM, I decide that I probably shouldn't modify "The Discerning Hermit" as my vocational title. What I need to do is revise my Horizons of Focus instead:
- Blog Title = Vocational Title
- Blog Description = Mission
- Blog Pages = Areas of Responsibility
- Blog Labels = Projects
- Blog Posts = Next Actions
Now I need to swap out the text of my existing blog description, which reads more like a profile than a mission statement:
Navigating the UN Charter While Discerning a Hermit's Vocation in Upstate New York. Psychiatrically Disabled, Low-Income, Fifty-Something and Politically Independent. Christian Zionist for a Two-State Solution. Celibate Male of Western European Descent. Vegan, Born-Again, Climate Conscious, and Porn Free. Views are My Own with Help and Influence from Others. Published Daily Except on Saturdays and During Mental Health Challenges. Thanks for Your Visit. God Bless.
I will put much of this text in an updated Blogger profile, where it more properly belongs.
Whew! It's 2:15 PM. That was a long and surprisingly challenging session that included breakfast and some mildly despondent napping. It's time for a snack.
