a fool for Christ
in silence
and solitude
praying | studying | waiting for God (+)
no donations
In my first six years as a hermit, I’ve experienced that Abram’s example was - and still is - true (see i.a. Genesis 14:22-24). Therefore, all my religious help is given away for free.
This means I’d prefer not to receive any financial nor material donations, lest this should later be cause for giving or taking offence. For instance people thinking, saying, or feeling: "We have supported bartholomew, and look now how he is spending our gratitude”.
Instead:
・give your prayerful thanks to God (+)
・be kind to others
・and pray for me too
