I knew it, I knew it... Too many good comments, I knew mine wouldn't place. :wink: Just too many better writers out there. Maybe I should have done it just as a poem, better luck next time.

oh ya.. and Congratulations to the winners this week, and through the last quarter, some excellent work.

Congrats to this week's Winners! WAY TO GO!!!

:grouphug3

Bear hasn't had the chance to read entries yet, being busy building her Blog/Website for the past week, with many sleepless nights in the process. (The link is in the signature, if anyone should want to come visit.)

However, Bear plans on catching up on reading soon, and is looking forward much to it. Many of the titles alone, make things sound most interesting, and she knows the winning entries will be excellent! Plus, she looks forward to getting around to many of the other entries as well, for the same reason. :D

God bless!

I read many entries this week and I gotta say that I was blown away, time after time. The topic also described the level of writing. I was truly "wow-d!" (hmm.. is that a word.. and how do you spell it?)

Anyway, sincere congrats to everyone listed above!

...and many thanks to the judges!

Woo-Hoo--congrats to all the names up there--a special shout-out to Connie!

So many names have become friends--that's the best part. The worst part is not seeing certain entries get "official" recognition.

Thanks to judges and fws for all you do. I will really miss entering next quarter (I mean it this time :D )--I have a novel I have to finish for sanity's sake, and the days are fleeting.

One note about "The Fourth Thing"--I didn't feel sorry for the men in the story as much as I was in awe of them. The sacrificial nature of a godly man is a wonder to behold. I'm married to one of those men.

We rest--
then on you go.

SO incredibly proud of my daughter for hitting the top in her first Challenge entry ever. Well done Nicole! It proves what you said when you wrote it - God really inspired you and worked through you. I'm so proud that you were open to His inspiration.

The faith that nothing can dismay,
The hope no disappointments tire,
The passion that will burn like fire.
Let me not sink to be a clod,
Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God.
