Thinking Blogger Award
I am so excited about being nominated for the Thinking Blogger Award!
Having just begun my blog a few months ago, I cannot believe how far God has brought me. I didn’t even realize how much I wanted to write until it was uncovered by Cindy Rushton. She had a virtual writers seminar (which I almost didn’t attend) and she showed me that writing was the answer to a desire of my heart that I was not even aware of.
You see, I live in a VERY rural area and I have four very small children. I would love to be able to be in a women’s ministry at my church, but it’s just not possible. This blog allows me an outlet for my creativity and also a way to minister to women.
It is hard for me to believe all the wonderful women I have met online in just a few months! And yesterday, I “met” another wonderful woman named Cheryl who hosts a group of women who have begun a 21 day journey. I LOVE the theme word for the group, reformation. To reform means to improve or amend what is wrong; to change to a better state; to cause a person to abandon wrong; to put an end to.
I have chosen to focus on prayer during this 21 day journey. I will be sharing more about that a little later, but right now, I’m going out to look at clouds with my little girls (Josiah is on the tractor with Daddy this afternoon).
For those who have been tagged, the Participation Rules are simple:
- If, and only if, you are tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think

Here are my 5 nominees (in no particular order). I am fairly new to the blogosphere, so here are the blogs that I have been visiting. I invite you to take the time to visit them as well.

Thank you Tamera!
What a surprise and an honor!!
Your blog makes me dig deep in God’s Word, think about life and apply it. You well deserved receiving this award. Congrats to you, as well — you have worked hard to put together a wonderful site. I am so glad you shared your “how I got started” story. That’s your way — and so many of us can relate in our ways, can’t we? Oh — what a blessing to be on this Journey with you!
With thanks and Joy!

Thank You Tamera. I feel so blessed to have met you and your blogs are truly an inspiration to me in my day to day walk with Christ. We are to edify each other in Christ like love and that is exactly what you do for us. Thank you for being obediant to the LORD in His calling to your life. Congratulations.
God Bless,

Thank you, Tamera! I always enjoy your blog, and I think that memes are one of the best ways to find more blog friends. I’ll enjoy tagging some of my favorites, as well!
There’s joy in the journey, isn’t there?
Blessings,

You really got me Tamera. I thought it was a joke! My daughter Rebekah looked it up and its for real. She said I better check it out, so here I am. What a surprise and what an honor. Now I just have to figure out how to do all this.
I’m grateful to be on this journey with all you ladies. What a blessing you all have been to me as I plod along in my writing attempts.
Blessings,
Phyllis
