3 AWARDS

I am in a quandary as of late.  But it is a good kind to have!  I have had 3 nominations come to me from fellow bloggers all at about the same time.  These blogger awards that go around this community are plentiful.  What a wonderful thing when someone thinks of you and mentions you for consideration for the award.

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am faithful in posting my usual blog posts every Tuesday.  Sometimes it takes a bit to write one because I wait for the LORD.  I wait on HIS direction as to what HE would like me to write about.  And that takes……time.

I admire those who can blog every day, but that isn’t me.  My goal someday is to blog a couple times a week.  Maybe GOD has that in store for me or not.  All I know is that HE continues to give me the subject matter and then I write alongside HIM.

So now I sit with three nominations and each one is involved with answering questions and finding other bloggers to nominate.  Looking at 3 of these is overwhelming to me.  I so admire all these bloggers each who do and answer the questions so effortlessly!  They are my inspiration!

Today the Spirit said to me: don’t make it so complicated and don’t get overwhelmed.  Just thank each of them…….it’s ok if you can’t answer each award nomination. 

I am thankful and my heart is very full just knowing that these 2 women thought to include me.  Doesn’t everyone desire to be included?  Oh, to be listed, to be invited and mostly to be loved!! And isn’t that what our GOD does?  HE wants to include us into HIS family!

And so I thank my GOD for them……

COLOSSIANS 3: 17 “AND WHATEVER YOU DO, IN WORD AND IN DEED, DO EVERYTHING IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS, GIVING THANKS TO GOD THE FATHER THROUGH HIM.”

I want to list their blogs here with the hope and prayer that you will see them with the love I have for them and then, go visit them too…..

Tk from http://tkbrownwriter.wordpress.com

Both of these ladies inspire me and you will be too!  Their love for the LORD shines through their words and poetry.  And I am so thankful today for being part of their light that they bring to the Christian blogging world, my heart is warmed by their kind words and I am continually encouraged by their example of their love for GOD and those around them.  So thank you Gail for your nomination for the IDEAL INSPIRATION AWARD.  And you as well Tk, thank you for your 2 nominations: one for the LIEBSTER AWARD AND THE SUNSHINE BLOGGER AWARD……. and bless you both.  May you continue writing for the LORD!
