I enjoy hearing from those who stop by Art's Chili Pepper both by comment and email. I find it thrilling to discuss various viewpoints. I welcome emails and comments from readers who wish to share their thoughts on my posts or politely debate different Biblical truths. While I do not require you to agree with my opinions, I do require you to state your position in the kind and loving manner befitting a Christian.
In the post Romans 14:19 I have clearly laid out the purpose of this blog and the requirements for any correspondence from readers. This blog is to be a place of edifying and exhortation. I will not accept any comments or email intended to be argumentative or that shows unkindness. If your comment does not meet that criteria, I will delete it.
Furthermore, I have tried to keep this blog as open as possible so as to allow for free discussion and the sharing of minds and hearts. I can not allow the work to be hindered by making this a place of ugliness. I will not allow my family to be upset by hateful comments. Because of unpleasant correspondence, comments here are now monitored before publication. I am sorry it must be that way but for the joy of all who visit, I see no way around it. I try to moderate them quickly but be patient if it takes a little time for me to get back to you.
Additionally, you know who I am and it is only polite to identify yourself when leaving a comment. I consider it nothing but cowardice to hide behind anonymity when leaving venomous comments. Therefor from this point on this blog will be set only to receive comments from registered readers.
One more thing to consider, this blog is intended as a service to those who want to grow closer to the Lord, enrich their spiritual life, share ideas on child training or home schooling or explore ways to enrich married life. If you do not like what you read, you merely need to hit that red "X" in the top right hand corner of your screen.
Love to each of my dear readers,
Kat~ Art's Chili Pepper
Awww... that is so sweet. :D You have a wonderful family Mrs.Watcher. But I suppose you already knew that. ;D
ReplyDeleteHi Kat,
ReplyDeleteMy computer is moving so slowly that I am not yet able to view your video. One thing I can say about it is that the image of you and the baby is gorgeous. Happy Birthday dear friend.
Thank you for continually going over to my blog. Your comments encourage me to want to be there more often. I know it's not about comments, but they sure do help when sharing your heart.
Have a blessed day and I look forward to being around here more often as I pursue the challenges I posted about.
BTW, Allen's note to you was precious.
Love and Hugs,
Carol
OK, my computer finally worked and I was able to see the beautiful video the girls made. They are talented, lovely, kind, and precious to you, their Mama, who has taught them well.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part was all of the beautiful words your children poured out to you.
Hope your day was beautiful and blessed.
Hi, Carol.
DeleteSo glad to see you here! I miss your visits. I have to agree with you... I think they are so talented and truly a blessing to me. I am truly unworthy of the love they bestow on me. They showed this at my birthday party last week and I must admit I was speechless, which doesn't happen often! When the lights went on, I kept thinking I should say something to thank all those who have blessed me so much over the years, but I was choking on tears and couldn't get a single word out. Fortunately, my good friends were there to hug me and help me through the awkward moment. ☺
Hugs,
Kat
Kat: I am sorry Doug and I could not attend your party this weekend. I looked at the map and realized you really are not that far away....well, three hours is just a hop, skip, and a jump when we skip to the tune our Heavenly Father sets for us:) Maybe one day we will make that little journey and finally get to meet face to face!
ReplyDeleteLove, hugs, and prayers,

Andrea,
DeleteI wish you all could have been here, too. But one day it will work out. Thank you for your lovely message and when things are a little slower for you all we will work out that hop, skip and jump!
Hugs,
Kat
