God knew I was feeling kinda low these days...and He had three ladies bless me with blogging honors...I already posted about the other two here.
And then I received an email tonight from Heather at Desperately Seeking Sanity, letting me know she selected me for this:
Here's what she said about me: "This woman is amazing! I don’t know her personally, only through her blogs, but I relate to her in so many ways. And she encourages me on a daily basis."
I'm amazed. Simply amazed.
And lately, I've felt anything BUT amazing. But I'll blog about that later.
In the spirit of this award, the rules are simple. Winners of this award must pick five other “disciples” to pass it on to. As you pass it on, mention and provide links for:
(1) Dan King of Management by God as the originator of the award.
(2) The person that awarded it to you.
(3) Name and sites of the five that you believe are fulfilling the role of a disciple of Christ.
Now, I'm supposed to pick 5 bloggers out of the many, many who lift me up and encourage me?? That's going to take some time, and I never have played by man's rules:-) Only God's!!
So, in no particular order...
1) Nise' at Thus Far The Lord Has Helped Me
2) Sharon at Sit With Me Awhile
3) Denise at Shortybear's Place
4) Taunalen at Taunalen
5) Denise, Diann, Colleen, and Kristen at Girls Write Out
6) All the wonderful chick-lit writers at Faithchick
And so many, many more. Thanks for lifting me up where I belong...and being the wind beneath my wings...and seeing the best part of me...and all of those other cliches that really don't express adequately what is in my heart.
You give me the gift of letting me be...well, me. And finding Jesus in the being of me...and that is cool. You help me learn to be real.
Be blessed and be a blessing!

Deena,
Thank you so much. I've missed your comments and silliness lately, and have been praying that all is well. I'm still having some trouble with my feed, but I check in as often as I can. You bless me in so many ways. I'm flattered, and it sort of pushes me to be more encouraging. Thanks for that, too.
Hugs,
