The 2014 Winner of the Henri Christian Literary Award

This is one of the most exciting seasons in my life. First I was nominated for the prestigious Henri Christian Literary Award. Then I was given the opportunity to win the Reader's Choice award. Finally, I am the 2014 winner of the Henri Christian Literary Award in the Devotional Category. None of this could have been accomplished without God in my life and Him leading the way. Once again, I thank Joy & Company for promoting Christian Literature and for putting the spot light on several talented authors last night. Thank you to all of you who supported me, have read the book, told others about the book and who voted for me to win the Reader's Choice award. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.
