~Awards Day~

Don't forget to leave me a comment until February 20th when I celebrate my 1st year blogging.

I am giving away two beautiful wall crosses to two randomly drawn names of anyone who leaves a comment on my blog.

I posted a picture in my sidebar of the crosses.

Awards Day

I am sorry that I seem to always be behind in getting awards posted. Wheee...I'm not sure where my days go but wherever it is...it's fast.

Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised. Proverbs 31:30

Beauty recommends none to God, nor is it any proof of wisdom and goodness, but it has deceived many. The fear of God reigning in the heart is the beauty of the soul and it lasts forever. A beautiful woman of God is a woman who can reflect with comfort when she becomes old. A woman who will rejoice in the world to come and she will be a blessing to the people around her.
