I love this quote Scholastic Scribe had when they posted this award.
“Diverting the internal traffic between the Writer as Angel of Light and the Writer as Hustler is the scribbling child in a grown-up body, wondering if anyone is listening.”
~Herbert Gold, Elder Statesman of The Beat Generation~
I want to thank Debbie at Heart Choices for this award, how she has been a blessing to me. One day we emailed each other and suddenly we found we had a lot in common with places we have lived. I love the blogging world because I get to met people I would have never known otherwise. You as readers challenge me and help me grow. You deal with misspelled words, run on sentences, and garbled thoughts, yet you still return (does my Mom pay you?). Seriously THANK YOU.
When it comes to writing anything I am Moses:
“But my Lord, never in my life have I been a man {woman} of eloquence, either before or since you have spoken to your servant. I am a slow speaker {writer, have you seen how I spell Lord?} and not able to speak well {write well; there are so many others who are better}.”
Then the Lord said to him {Laurel}, “Who has made man’s {women’s hands?} mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now therefore go {write}, and I will be with your mouth {words} and teach you what you shall speak {write}.”(Exodus 4:10-12). (brackets mine 
I am not implying everything I write comes directly from God, but when I write devotionals for LWG, even book reviews for CWO, or a post on marriage at Wedded Bliss I pray first and ask God what he would like to communicate.
Several times I have come close to giving up blogging and writing, then inevitably I would get an email telling me how something really helped them and drew them closer to the Lord.
If I only help ONE person draw closer to the Lord, everything I do is worth it. Lord knows you as readers and fellow bloggers have drawn ME closer to the Lord.
Thank you Debbie for your encouragement, your comments, and your friendship.
Now I need to pass this along to 5 most-deserving Bloggy friends (because the rules tell me to =).
1. Iris at Sting My Heart, I would not still be blogging if it were not for her friendship.
2. Angie at The Knightly News her encouragement and kind words keeps me going. There was one time (awhile ago) she mailed me a card, not knowning what I was going through and she left me sobbing at the mailbox because I knew her kind words were from God.
3. Lynn at Spiritually Unequal Marriage. We may not talk daily but I know if I need prayers she is right there for me!
4. Kelli, she is my hero. I want to have Kelli’s perseverance and humor when I grow up.
5.Heather at An Untraditional Home. She challenges me to think outside the box, I love to hear her view points on things. We agree some of the time and sometimes we don’t but I adore her!
