I created a new blog award over the weekend (see my 12/18/2011 post https://believeanyway.wordpress.com/2011/12/18/creation-of-new-blog-award-the-candle-lighter-award/) and I had an amazingly lovely time awarding it to a whole lot of wonderful, inspirational uplifting blogs today. Click on my button in the header for The Candle Lighter Award to see the list. Some of the blogs on the list were blogs given the award by people I gave the award to (rather than directly given by me: it is already growing :-) . If you received the award please go ahead and put the award picture in your widget section of your blog. It is right here on this page.
Candle Lighter Award
If you don’t know how to do it, believe me–i understand. I just kind of figured it out today myself. Some of the other recipients already have it up on their blog—they might be able to help you do it!
Anyway, things have been busy in my home today. So I brought in takeout Chinese food tonight. That means fortune cookies for desert (hooray). When I opened my fortune cookie, guess what my fortune said??
“It is better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness“. Wow….What do you think of that!
Kate you have lit so many small candles – keeping darkness at bay for a lot of us.
thank you
I pray that the world becomes ablaze with hope, joy, love, and optimism. There are so many hope-filled and faith-filled blogs. We have only begun to light those candles :-). Love to you this Christmas.
I love when God does that!
I know! That happens in my life so much. God knows so well how many times I need to hear a message!
You, Kate, are among the brightest of Candle Lighters!
I am so humbled by this honor you have shared with me! Thank you! (And thanks for the instructions on how to attach it to my blog. I’m going to try to do that today. :)
yay good luck! I’m humbled by your amazing blog as well. Keep up the great work. The world needs your words.
Thanks for the honor you bestowed upon me, too, Kate. :-)
Gosh you are so welcome….you are so much a lighthouse and candle for me. Your faith, your blog, your everything….hard to even put into words. But you ARE a candle lighter….
It`s an Honor to receive the Candle Lighter Award from you Kate I love it
More power to your blog :)
Thank you, dear Jake! You deserve the honor. Your talent lights the world. :-)
Your award is cool
Easy to pass without rules Etc.
Then I like to work for it later …:)
That was part of my point, Jake. Plus I didn’t want people to be limited if they did want to pass it on. They can do it as often or seldom as they wish.
