OUR GOD CONTINUES TO AMAZE US!

Earlier this week, this column was devoted to promoting other blog sites written by writers who promote a Christ-based, biblical message.

To present 15 or so recommended sites required far more work than I had anticipated, but the reward for doing so also exceeded anything I could have imagined.

I have been thanking the Lord for giving me the opportunity to learn more about the wonderful work He is doing through other hands. As time goes on, I would like to continue to promote and encourage fellow bloggers who love the Lord and have answered His call.

Here is a summary version for quick reference of the websites presented in the original blog. You can find the original one here: (http://bit.ly/2Q8dB7j). Note below the corrected website link for “Focused and Free.” (Please attach no significance to the list order.)

SEVERAL WRITERS WHOSE BLOGS I wanted to showcase, but who are more established, are:

1. 1. 1. Godly Chic Diaries – She is at https://gcdiaries.wordpress.com/
      2. Beauty Beyond Bones —She is at https://beautybeyondbones.com/
      3. David Fischer — He is at https://damarministries1991.wordpress.com
      4. Inmate Blogger — They are at https://inmateblogger.com

Since posting this recommendation, I received an e-mail giving a history of the inmates’ website. You can find the story of how Steven & Suzie Jennings established this website in 2013. In February 2014, they were married.

This explains the riddle for me: So many of the inmates thank “Suzie” for their opportunity to reach the outside world. You can read about the website here: https://inmateblogger.com/2018/11/01/a-brief-history-of-inmate-blogger-the-co-founders/.

Our majestic Lord and Savior, the Creator and Sustainer of all life. To You goes all the praise, honor, and glory. You are an amazing God, filled with love and grace, justice and mercy. Thank You for claiming us for Your glory. Thank You for giving us eternity. In Jesus’ powerful name we lift this prayer. AMEN
