Hello! You’ve been nominated for six awards. You can pick them up here: http://lessonsbyheart.wordpress.com/
Thank you for your inspiration and encouragement.
\o/
Congratulations on your awards. Pure Glory appreciates your nomination for all of these awards: Seed of Light, Lovely Blog Award, Awesome Blog Content, The Versatile Blogger, Super Sweet Blogging Award and the Wonderful Team Member Readership Award and the honor and support they bring. So good to know that you find us inspirational and encouraging. Due to limited time, we do not pass on the awards. Thank you and abundant blessings to you! 😀
Thank you for thinking of Pure Glory. The honor of the Word Press Family Award is appreciated. You are part of our family, the family of God, most significant family that there is! We don’t post awards but are delighted that you bestowed this award on us. 😀
Thank you for nominating Pure Glory for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. We appreciate the honor. It is encouraging to know you find our blog inspiring. 😀
Thanks for the like on my “Act your Age” post. I totally agree with you about Creativity. I was at a writers conference at Bethel Church here in California, where Theresa Dedmon described the process of partnering with The Lord in Creative endeavors as, “Presence based Art”. Which very much describes the process for me when I write. I love to worship while I write.
Hi there! I wanted you to know that I nominated your blog for the Liebster Award! To find out more about that, you can see my upcoming post when it gets published later today! You don’t have to accept it, but either way, I wanted to bless you and that, by doing so, more people will see what you have to say. Lauralee
Hi Lauralee! Congratulations on your nomination for the Liebster Award and thank you for honoring and passing it on to Pure Glory. Your thoughtfulness and blessings are appreciated. Pure Glory, however, does not accept awards. Abundant blessings!
I would like to say I love your blog and the wonderful and beautiful things you share as well as the inspiration and smiles you bring in doing so! Thank you for being you and I hope even if you do not accept awards you will accept the sentiment expressed as I honor you with one. There is no prize that comes with the award other than my appreciation and being grateful you are part of our world and making a difference by sharing in such a positive way…
I have posted the award and link to it here I hope you will accept it or at least the sentiment behind it! http://artisticlyxpressedthoughts.wordpress.com/2014/03/27/awards-and-shared-gifts/
Thank you Joe, for honoring Pure Glory with the award. Your ind encouraging words are a day brightener So happy to know that this blog is making a difference in your life. Bless you! Your appreciation and award brings love and laughter.
I spent several years in Alaska during my time in the Army in the mid 70’s mostly in Anchorage area but also spent some time in Fairbanks. Beautiful place. I wish your church the best. I will be following along with you from time to time. I now live in the Philippines with my wife and kids and grandkids
Thank you for visiting A Couple of Stars and a Happy Face and for all the “Likes.” I hope you’ve been able to find a SMILE or two. 😄 You have a beautiful blog. Thank you for directing us to the glory of our Heavenly Father. There’s so much in this world vying for our attention. Sometimes we need a little refocusing!
Thank you so much, for visiting and liking several articles. I’m deeply honoured ad appreciate it, God bless. Thanks also for the work you do here to; i pray you stay faithful to directing people to God’s glory right up to the end in Jesus name, amen.
Worship God in the Holy Ghost. Dance and sing unto the Holy One of Israel. Praise Him with tongues of fire and light. Shout to the Lord, and eagerly expect your praise to be heard from on high. Creativity is God’s plan for his children; we are creators of our circumstances. God created us to be creative. I thank the Lord for your ministry.
This is exactly what I’ve been trying to say in my own blog and life! So amazing to stumble across another blogger who believes the same! Aren’t you so happy that through God’s grace we are able to be creative?
It is wonderful that God created us in his image with gifts of creativity inside of us, waiting to be expressed. Our worship of God is creative. There are so many things we can do creatively to honor God with our gifts.
YES IT DOES!
