God, I thank you for the small nudges that awaken us and especially how you elect to bring us encouragement! WordPress reports that my writing has staying power! I am truly appreciative. But , I understand my ultimate power comes from my reliance on our Heavenly Father who gives me directions and ignites my desire to write and share heart matters. Friends this report is extremely encouraging! Take from it what you need to pen your reports. I believe I’ll continue to blog and climb new summits (one blog post at a time) and behold vistas that I’ve yet to see! Prosperity and peace to all of you, have a great new year! I am confident that blessings await you also! You can win, hang in there!
