About Me

Hello, and thank you for stopping by and reading my posts and also for following my blog. Thank you. It’s such an encouragement when people visit my site and comment on my posts.

You will find that my posts are Christian in content and inspired by my faith in Jesus through life events, my bible readings/studies and as the Holy Spirit leads. I want to encourage discipleship and support as we journey through faith in Jesus together.

I created the blog in 2018. Back then the world of blogging was completely new to me. I’m ashamed to admit it now but at that time, I didn’t even know what a blog was. It was a prompting from God which inspired me to start a blog. I made lots of excuses not to start the blog (not knowing how was the big one) but in the end I googled “how to write a blog” and was led to WordPress and the rest, as they say, is history.

Sometimes you just have to take that first step and trust God with the rest.

I love reading blogs from writers all over the world and sharing our stories, ideas and encouragement. It’s inspiring and challenging. It makes my realise how little I know. Blogging opens up my world to enable me to connect with others. I have connected with some incredible people since starting my blog. I have become part of the UK Christian bloggers – you can find out a bit more in this post at UK Christian Bloggers and I now have friends all over the world – what a privilege.

So a bit more about me….let me properly introduce myself.

My name is Nicola. This is me on a recent holiday.

In a nutshell I am.. a follower of Jesus, Wife, Mum to 2 beautiful daughters, Lawyer who loves life, having fun, travel, good food, red wine, craft beers, live music, my dog, (the cat sometimes), my campervan, puzzles, walking and writing. I’m in my mid-fifties now but young at heart.

I live in England (in the Midlands) where I have spent the last 30 plus years. I was born in Somerset but moved to Scotland when just a baby as my Dad was Scottish. We lived in Fife until I was about 9 and then moved back to Somerset. We then moved to the Midlands with my husband’s job and we have settled here and raised our two daughters.

I’m very fortunate to have a wonderful husband who is also a great chef so I’m completely spoiled. It was our 33rd wedding anniversary this year.

I became a Christian in the summer of 1976, was baptised in water on 3rd December 1978 and also baptised in the Holy Spirit on 24th February 1979. I received the gift of tongues from the Holy Spirit at an early age and have been blessed with other gifts of the Holy Spirit.

I am currently a leader in my local church and very involved in prayer & deliverance ministry. My family were always Christians and a mix of Pentecostalists (my mum) and Baptists (my dad).

I love Jesus and want to share the good news of the gospel, encourage and hopefully inspire fellow believers and others to follow Christ and grow in the knowledge of God through Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.

I am passionate about prayer and want to step into all God has for me to do for Him. I hope my posts are a blessing to my readers.
