The wonderful Lynn of Through Ink and Image nominated me for the Sunshine Blogger Award 🌞
Thank you so much for the nomination, Lynn! Here are the rules of the award:
- Thank the blogger who nominated you.
- Answer the 11 questions asked.
- Nominate 11 other bloggers and ask them 11 new questions.
- List the rules and include the Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post.
Now, I know that these award posts can be quite lengthy, so I’ll try to keep it short and sweet.
Here are Lynn’s questions and my replies.
- Where do you get inspiration from for your blog posts?
Honestly, I usually just open a new post and sit there thinking about what is going on in my life.
- Morning or night person?
Both! I like them equally for different reasons.
- Favorite Bible verse?
Psalm 108:13, “Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.” I wrote a post about it here.
- When did you give your life to God?
I don’t remember how old I was, but I certainly remember what happened. I thought I was saved, but I wasn’t; I had just prayed a prayer before. I heard something about hell, and that really scared me. I talked with my mom for a while about it. I knew that Jesus loved me and had died for me, so I went in my room and shut the door. I prayed to God and asked him to forgive me for all my sins, the ones I had already done and hadn’t committed yet. I asked him to come into my heart and save me. And he did, PTL!
- Do you prefer a large family or a small one?
I guess a small one, because you really get to know your family members and bond closely.
- Favorite book and why?
I don’t have one! It’s so hard to pick just one favorite book, but you can read about some of my faves here.
- Who is your mentor?
My parents.
- If you were to eat one thing all your life, what would it be?
I don’t know! I love food very much, so it would be hard to give any of it up 😂
- What is that thing you can’t do without?
I’d be lost without my Bible.
- Introvert or extrovert?
Extrovert!
- Please offer a word of encouragement to your readers.
I was listening to a song by Jason Gray today that spoke to me. (I may share a more detailed post about this on Friday.) The song was “Remind Me Who I Am.” A lot of times, I only focus on the bad about myself, and forget that God loves me now. He loves me so much! I don’t have to be perfect for him to love me. He loves who I am, and who I am becoming.
Okay! Now for my nominees.
- Grace Abounds
- Amazing God Stories
- SweetSummerOnline

Can I tell you something funny? People used to think my sister and I were twins. Then we moved away from home and didn’t hear much about it anymore. She recently joined Facebook, and now Facebook sometimes tags my face with my sister’s name! Lol! 😂😂
