Great Writers & Encouragers

*Several weeks ago, my friend Tracy at [My Daily Walk in His Grace](http://mydailywalkinhisgrace.blogspot.com/) gave me the Versatile Blogger Award. I want to thank Tracy for this honor, and I would like for you to visit her encouraging blog and share in her truths of God's word. I would also like to share this encouragement by extending this award to a few blogs that are my favorite - please visit them! You will be glad you did.*
