TheDavidCave
Hey, fellow warriors. It's Jay, the Cave Founder, after many absent months. I have had to spend some time thinking and praying about things regarding the Cave in light of two things: 1. Personal life situation and 2. Wattpad's recent changes. The Cave is not going away! I can promise and assure that right now. But. . . I think it's function and purpose is going to have to change. The ministry function of the Cave hinged largely on the direct messaging function, where people could reach out to talk. Well. . . DMs are gone now and for the foreseeable future, unless Wattpad decides to change their mind. You can always still reach out for prayers and to share praises on the message board, but unless you feel comfortable having potentially deep or personal conversations publicly, that purpose is no longer feasible. So that's the first thing. The second thing is. . . Like I said, I've had a lot of things happen in real life and I am having to recover from lots of. . . Really heavy and hard stuff that happened. And because of that. . I don't think it would be wise to be trying to minister in such a personal way to any of you at this time. I have had people trust me with both amazing and terrible things, and I am so honored and humbled by that. But I also know there is a responsibility in that, and I don't want to abuse that or cause harm during this time where I am just. . . Not the way I once was. (Continued below)

@TheDavidCave The final thing is. . The ministry aspect of this account has been really hard to both get started and keep going. Life had just gotten in the way for both myself and the amazing team that was put together. And I don't want this account to become a burden or stressor on anyone, including myself. For all these reasons. . . I am deeply considering shutting down the ministry aspect of the David Cave and making it more of a secondary account where I post my Christian writings. I have some other ideas too that I'm excited about. . . But it would primarily be me doing all of them. However, I know this choice does not only influence me. There is an amazing team of people who were passionate about this and wanted to be involved. So @Pinestripe37 @PlattenumSwiftie9685 @angel_dust_kin @Grasya1799, if you would think and pray on this decision alongside me. And if any of you receive an answer that argues against it and/or indicates that you should still be involved, let me know. And we'll go from there.
