About
Hi,
I am so glad you stopped by today!
Faith Counts is my first blog. I am writing this blog around the theme of “Becoming a Better Christian” by following God one step at a time. I use my own life experiences to illustrate lessons I have learned. I am a cancer survivor, who wasn’t expected to survive, so I write about that too.
Every Friday, I post a book review of a current Christian book. If you are a reader or fellow book reviewer, you can choose “book review” in the Subject box to get the list of book reviews.
I have been a follower of Christ for over 20 years. I am trying to become more involved in my faith, and find ways to get closer to Jesus. I hope you will enjoy reading my blog, and find it helpful.

I am a new fan. I came across your blog when you commented on my blog A Creative Voice Beckons.

Janet, I completely agree! God is good to connect us. Thank you for stopping by my blog yesterday to encourage another reader in her health challenges. Since you are an overcomer, it means so much! Knowing that someone has fought and conquered gives hope to other Christians who are in the battle. I am just beginning the journey of healthy eating, so please stop by the blog anytime to give the rest of us some pointers.
And, thank you for your kind words about lent in your post yesterday. You are well on your way to giving up something that is so difficult for the rest of us to relinquish. God bless you in all your pursuits!

Hi! Thanks for checking up on me. I am in a resting, recuperating time right now. My family has experienced several deaths in the last 2 years, as well as severe health issues for an adult child that required our help for a couple years. I am reviewing my priorities and taking a break from social media. Your concern is appreciated. I hope you are doing well!

Well Janet my husband passed back in April so our family is on the mends. Still living in Land O Lakes. May the Lord watch between me and thee while we are absent one from the other. Be and stay blessed. And I pray that you are well soon. Blessings and Peace!
