A heartfelt, humble thanks to One Loved American Girl for presenting Longings End with a Kreativ Blogger award.

And that beautiful faith she noted was forged in fires that have purged the deep dark recesses of our hearts.  A faith that is a gift of God, sustaining us through the years and every single new day, both the good and bad. He is our most beautiful, treasured gift. May Longings End continue to serve Him well, inspire others to seek Him, and glorify His name always…

And the “rules” are:

  • Thank the blogger who gave you the award and provide a link to their site.
  • List 7 things about yourself that your readers might find interesting.
  • Nominate 7 other bloggers, provide their links, and let them know.

SEVEN interesting things you probably don’t know:

  1. I love quirky, campy movies and can watch the same one every night for two weeks in a row, though I rarely do. e.g.) Darby O’Gill and the Little People, Loch Ness with Ted Danson and Flipper with a young Elijah Wood.
  2. I can laugh myself silly over that which I find funny, although when I finally stop laughing and share it with Dearest Husband he looks at me quizzically, grinning and shaking his head…
  3. I practically drink my weight in purefied water daily, love green smoothies at breakfast and am passionate about health and wellness.
  4. I love to eat really healthy, but have an undeniable sweet tooth and often placate my cravings with momentary junk food fantasies or longing gazes in the ice cream aisle at the supermarket or bakery (yet rarely cave!), although I will brake for a hit of organic dark chocolate.
  5. I love meeting with my Lord while the morning is still dark, reading the Bible by candlelight with a good cup of Earl Grey tea.
  6. I love to share my testimony in the hopes it might help another – all the pain, loss, fears, hurts – yet even more I love to share about the unwavering goodness and love of God and how Jesus sustains me each and every day.
  7. I married my husband after knowing him for 47 days in a God honoring relationship and would do it again in a heartbeat!!

PS  After more than two decades of walking with the Lord, I am falling in love all over again with Him as I uncover who He really is (regardless of the traditions and doctrines I have been taught in church over the years) through simply reading the gospels…the words and times of my greatest Love, Jesus Christ.

And the envelope, please:

Longings End nominates the following seven sites for the Kreativ Blogger award.  Please take a moment and check out their interesting and inspiring words and visuals…
