Thank you to my little sister Herry @ Herry Chic Counsels for this award nomination. Read Herry’s About Me page to discover more about the purpose of her blog. Her posts are a true blessing, and will inspire you in your journey with Christ Jesus. 🌺
Here are the guidelines: 🤗
1) Thank the person who nominated you and share their blog. 2) Think of five bloggers that encourage and inspire you and nominate them. 3) List five things about yourself. 4) Answer the questions you got asked. 5) Finally, ask your nominees five questions. Why five? Because it is the number that signifies grace.
“You have been chosen for this recognition because of the encouragement and inspiration you bring to your readers.”

Five Things About Me: 👩🏿
1. My favorite season is spring. The flowers are beautiful. 🌷
2. I like spicy food. 🌶
3. I used to have 2 pet lizards named Cocoa and Verde. 🦎 🦎
4. My favorite part of flying is takeoff. ✈️
5. My favorite Bible verse is John 3:16. ✝️
Here are the questions that Herry asked me to answer:
- Who is the person that has most influenced you in your faith walk? Tell us a little about him/her. My mom. She shares her faith in Jesus daily through her actions of love and kindness.
- Other than the Holy Bible, is there another book that you read that encourages you? Can you recommend it to us? 30 Days to a Stronger More Confident You: Secrets to Bold and Fearless Living by Deborah Smith Pegues. This book talks about developing confidence through knowing Jesus Christ.
- If you could walk anywhere to spend some “alone” time with God, where in the world would you want to be and why? The park is my favorite place to spend time with the Lord, because being out in nature reminds me of Him.
- Do you have a favorite praise song? What is it? I love so many, it’s hard to name one. But I’ve been listening to “Raise a Hallelujah” by Bethel Music a lot lately.
- Do you ever send notes or cards of encouragement to someone? Why or why not? Yes I do, it’s a blessing to encourage others. We all need encouragement.
I nominate the following 5 bloggers. If you choose to participate, please answer the same 5 questions. Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement you bring to me and others. Your blog is a blessing! ❤️☀️❤️
Congratulations Blessings Dawn! Raise a Hallelujah is a great song, it’s one of my favorite too! 😊

Smiles… We the nature-loving folks. And wow, what happened to the 2 lizards though?. 🤔
The take-off is actually my dreaded. The surge feeling freaks me at first. 🙈
