…it’s now 1005, I took this screenshot a couple of days ago, intending to post then but never got to it. 😅

Guys, this has been an amazing journey, and I appreciate each and every one of you. Thanks for following along with me. ❤

I’ll leave you with a photo of God’s glory in the heavens – this was at the end of Day One of the Adventures In Arkansas that I recently posted about. (I took over 700 photos so the post didn’t showcase everything. XD) I have a lot of drafts I plan to finish up over the next few days, so see you soon! For the next one, it is scheduled for 10 AM CST today. 😀

Liebster Award – again! ❤

November 5, 2017 / Following Him / 32 Comments

Celebrate His Love nominated me for the Liebster Award – thank you, Dori! 🙂 And I learned that “Liebster” means “favorite one” or “adorable one” in German – I have wondered what that meant, but didn’t think to research it, so thanks for the fun fact! 🙂

I’ve seen variations of the rules of this award, but here are the ones that Celebrate His Love had:

Thank the nominator
Answer the Questions below
Nominate others

The Questions:

If you could be any animal on earth, what would it be and why?
- Probably a cat. They get pampered, they pretty much are king of the jungle – or house, if a house cat. Also, when they fall, they land on their feet most of the time. They seem to have a pretty great life!
If you had to write the soundtrack of your life, what would be the first three songs?
- Oh, this is so hard. “Have Your Way” by Highland’s Worship, “How Can I Keep From Singing?” by Audrey Assad, and “Desert Soul” by Rend Collective.
If your death was imminent, what would you choose as your last meal?
- Some sort of seafood. I’m not choosy about which kind it is, though I do like shrimp…
What movie that has not yet been made would you pay good money to see?
- I don’t really keep up with movies, but… perhaps a biography based on Evidence Not Seen by Darlene Diebler Rose? I’m really enjoying the book.
What was your favorite age to be and why?
- Probably ten? It was a nice carefree age.
What is the one book that has most inspired your writing and/or life?
- The Bible. 🙂
If you could live anywhere you please, without that pesky restraint called money, where would it be and why?
- I have no idea. I love the idea of Alaska, but it gets so cold there. Also, my own private tropical island sounds nice, but… I like seasons. So perhaps I’d get an RV so I could travel and live wherever I want on this continent, whether in Alaska or the coast and get to travel to see a lot of God’s creations in person. 🙂

Blogger Recognition Award

Thank you so much, Shower of Blessings, for nominating me for the Blogger Recognition Award! 😀

The Rules:

Write a post to show your award.
Give a brief story of how your blog started.
Give two pieces of advice to new bloggers.
Thank whoever nominated you, and provide a link to their blog.
Select other blogs you want to give the award to.

A brief history of how my blog started:

This blog came into existence because a few of my friends have blogs, and I thought it might be a good idea. 🙂 I intended this blog to be half Christian posts and half book reviews and everything else, but lately, I’ve been posting pretty much all Christian topics so I suppose it has evolved into a mostly Christian blog. I do have a few boo reviews planned for the future though. They are Christian books. 🙂

Advice to new bloggers:

When I started blogging, I new practically nothing about it. I was so lost. Thankfully, my friends helped me out with the setup and figuring out how things work. I discovered this post by TheDaddyBlitz when someone reblogged it many months ago and it was a life saver. If you have a few minutes to spare, I recommend checking it out. 🙂 Until I read that post, I didn’t even now I had an admin panel! So my first piece of advice would be to read that post, if that counts. 🙂

Secondly, read a lot of blogs so that you can like a lot of blog posts and comment on blogs! That’s how I discovered a lot of blogs, when they like me or comment on my posts. 😀
