Blog Tour Conclusion and Prize Winners

How do I begin to thank everyone who has been so important to my blog tour for Peaceful Moments of Love and Light and Count 1,2,3 With Me over the past two weeks? I appreciate so much each of the blog hosts and what you have shared, as well as those who left such lovely comments along the way. Also thank you to the hundreds that I see by my stats visited my blogs. I pray that all who came found something that was meaningful to them, and that this blog will always be a source of blessings to others and bring glory to God.

If you missed part of the tour, you can find the blog schedule on my previous post. I would like to encourage you to visit these blogs and discover the great things they each have to share!

When you are making your Christmas gift list, if you think of someone who would be blessed to have a devotional with short daily meditations to draw them closer to the Lord or a young child to enjoy the fun in learning to count, you can order Peaceful Moments of Love and Light or Count 1,2,3 With Me from my website or Amazon

Congratulations to the winners of the 3 prizes:

     Kim S. - Copy of my first book, Beautiful Moments of Joy and Peace

     Robyn C. - Set of 3 candle holders

     Cathy S. - Framed sunset print with inspirational verse

 Remember to always give thanks for all the many blessings of this life, and have a happy Thanksgiving!

Remember to offer thanks and praise
for blessings given in so many ways,
to express a heartfelt, grateful prayer
for all God’s goodness, love and care.

Mother's Day Celebrates Love

                    

  

This has been a wonderful two weeks of introducing A Symphony of Seasons, visiting many terrific blogs and reading the special comments made at each one. I am concluding with a Mother's Day poem from the book in honor of all mothers. Hope you have an opportunity to show your love to your mother, or if, like me, your mother has passed on, to enjoy fond memories.

Mother’s Day Celebrates Love

As we journey through the year
To the second Sunday in May,
We rejoice in the love of one so dear
As we celebrate Mother’s Day.

We honor our mother’s devotion,
Her tenderness and care,
Filled with a love as deep as the ocean,
Thoughtful and willing to share.

Her guidance and gentle direction
Helped us to do what we should,
By example and with her correction
We learned that we ought to be good.

Remembering our mothers on this date,
Whether together or far apart,
We are thankful as we celebrate
Her special place in each heart.
