Joie de Vivre A Wretched Man’s Quest To Follow Jesus Christ

Carol at The Bible Thumper’s Soapbox is such a dear — she has just awarded me the “Lift Him Up” award for my blog, wow!

Thank you very much, Carol, for deeming my blog worthy to receive an award that rewards “… blogs who focus on the Word of God and practical application. These are bloggers who are open and speak honestly about their concerns and/or struggles, who gives us food for thought using Scriptures, and who have a Biblical world view. Their blogs focus on Christ and His perfect, infallible Word.”

Here are some of the blogs I visit often and definitely deserve the award too for their honesty in sharing their lives and how the Lord Jesus Christ works in their lives:

• Michael Moore at Living Water for Those Who Thirst. You just have to read his testimony!
• Robert Morschel at Mulled Vine. I have been reading Robert’s blog for a good while now, ever since he posted his first entry.
• Jonathan Franzone at The Wired Christian. I love his blog, but he doesn’t update often, so I hope this spurs him to do so.
• Jimmy Chalmers at Woodshavings. That reminds me — I did say I’d do an interview with him one day, oops! I’ll get on it, Jimmy.
• Graham at Adullamite. He thinks not many are reading his blog, but I am. And this award tells you that I like your blog quite a bit, mate! ;-)

God bless you all.

This song for Shabbat has a special meaning for me as, with thanksgiving, I seek God’s own Will for me following the episode at work last Friday.

“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

– Philippians 6:4-7

Shabbat Shalom.
