The Emmanuel Award

Marie and Ginny at A View From the Pews have designed a new award honoring our fellow bloggers who share the true Christmas spirit. I am so honored to have been nominated for this award by Suzy over at Sailing by Starlight, my most favorite Christ-centered blog. And in the tradition of passing the goody-plate around, I'd like to nominate: GrandmaK over at A Bit of Blarney. Her joy and anticipation of the True Feast of the Nativity are a gentle backdrop in all her themes as we approach Advent ~ Tomorrow!
The award, as Marie and Ginny explain it:
Emmanuel Award

"God With Us"

In a consumer society it is a blessing to read blogs where the writer's main focus is God. Where they express their love for their faith so visibly and joyfully.In a cynical world it is refreshing to see so many blogs which are generous, giving, who care about others and demonstrate what being a Christian is about, loving God and loving our neighbor.Through their faith, lives and spirituality, they bring God to us, they in essence make God visible, 'God with us.'This Award goes to all the faith filled blogs who make evident 'Emmanuel'- God with us, with Joy in their hearts.Please share this Award with Christian blogs that focus on the real meaning of Christmas, the birth of our Savior.

My sincerest thanks for the consideration you have given my blog. Blogging has been a source of tremendous growth for me. I have learned so much from all who share in this exceptional COMMUNITY in which Christ bears witness. I do find comfort and sustenance in all these visits. God Bless!!
