๐Ÿ’ญ WHAT AM I GRATEFUL FOR, RIGHT NOW? ๐Ÿ˜Š

This is me reminiscing. (Smiles)

Thinking about it, my answer to the above question would be my WordPress sphere. Not the Application but the platform. I am grateful I began blogging – thanks to my eldest sis who advised and helped with the signing up.

It’s been 3 years plus since I started. And all I can say is that if it hasn’t been for God, where would this blog be?.

I remember doubting myself many times whenever I was about to release a writeup on the blog and share it on my social media platforms. And then He took me through a series of training that right now, once I get His go on it for the post to release, even when my head wants to get in the way. I just do it anyway.

To say that God has connected me with amazing people via this platform is an understatement. ๐Ÿ˜Š

I just want to say thank you Lord for the journey so far and the backing of you in the birthing and sustenance of HCCounsels. ๐Ÿ™Œ

To say that I was about throwing it away or taking a long break on it, earlier this year when I was just so not motivated to do anything. And God just brought someone to auto-reset me to my God-factory setting on it. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™ˆ
And this year has been a blessed year to this regard. Hoping to share the continuation, sometime soon. ๐Ÿ˜‰

So to everyone who has read, liked, shared, reblogged my post. I am grateful for you and for the constructive criticism, appreciation, cheering on, you all are a blessing.

I won’t end this without telling you this. Jesus loves you!. And yes, He makes even the tough days worth the training – rigorous or easy. Either way, He makes it all worth the while. ๐Ÿ™Œ

#Get started on that dream, it is never too late to start.

The “Now” starts now!. That future and image you envision, also starts now. Get started on that dream!

Blessings. โค

    I’m working on my dream. Sometimes I get discouraged but I have to understand that we all have a story to tell. And I’m working on my story. God is the reason why this book is so important to share. Thank you for the reminder of getting started on your dream

    I love these pictures of you. You look fearless and beautiful at the same time. I was sitting feeling disappointed in some of my dreams I had put on the shelf to focus on other important matters. I have missed writing and this post is a catalyst for me to stay focused on the dreams God has placed in my heart. I am so glad we both started blogging. Now, we are connected and can continue to encourage one another. I am ready for what God has for us next.
