Mr. Holliman nominated me on December 28th, 2019.

Thank you very much, Mr. Holliman, for nominating me for the Real Neat Blogger Award!! Please visit and follow his blog here!!!

THE RULES:
Display the blog award logo in your blog.
Thank the blogger who nominated you. Do not forget to link to their blogging website.
Answer all the questions they have given you.
Nominate 7 to 10 bloggers of your choice.
Ask them 7 questions.

Questions from Mr. Holliman:

1. What was your favorite moment on Christmas?

My favorite moment was singing carols and praising God for Jesus Christ! 🙂

2. What is your new resolution for the new year of 2020?

My new resolution is to live my life for Christ, not for myself.

3. What was your biggest blessing in 2019?

That’s a hard question! God has given me so many blessings in 2019, but I think the biggest blessing was that God gave me a clearer vision of Jesus’ dying on the cross and rising again for me, a bigger assurance of my salvation.

4. Do you like being in the snow or on the beach?

I like being in the snow, but no snow so far this winter. 😦

5. How would you say this year went for you?

So far, this year is going fine for me, by God’s grace.

"Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." - 2 Timothy 2:3 I am a Christian, and I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior from my sins! Praise the LORD for saving such a sinful wretch like me!! Courage, Christian soldiers serving under King Jesus' banner! "If God is for us, who can be against us?" - Romans 8:31b Favorite book: The Holy Bible, which is the Word of God. “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” - 2 Timothy 3:16 Other favorite books: The Bell Mountain Series by Lee Duigon; The Remnant Trilogy by Tim Chaffey and K. Marie Adams; The Crown & Covenant and The Faith & Freedom Trilogies by Douglas Bond; etc. I recommend these books!

      1. YAY, we were right!!! Lol! Yesterday my dad and I were talking about Christians in Japan, and I told him about you guys and showed him some of your videos. And we did some digging and soon came to the conclusion that Kevin Swanson was your uncle. (Much to my surprise!)
        So in the case, I’ve shaken hands with your uncle! XD And my dad knows him, and my grandpa (a homeschool speaker) is good friends with him!!! It’s a small world, lol! That’s really neat. 😀

        2. I’ll bet!! But wow, that is SO cool! And interesting!!!!! 😀 🙃😄
          So, do you know very many other Christians in Japan? Are you homeschooled? Do you usually speak English or Japanese in your house?
          Sorry about all the questions… 😉🙃

        3. Thanks for the questions! I love questions! 😊

          Yes, I know some Christians here, but not many. The percentage of Christians is pretty low in Japan, and probably most of the so-called Christians are Catholics, which is a false religion.

          Yes! I and my brother are homeschooled! I think you’ve done the same curriculum as us: PACES!

          We speak English to our father and Japanese to our mother.

          That’s cool that you shook hands with our uncle! It’s a reminder that God is in sovereign control!

        3. I just read all the comments! Wow! Sounds like fun! It’ll be nice to be able to play chess someday soon! 😄

          Although I’ll probably just end up and losing and crying!! 😭

        19. I couldn’t sign in as “JoMaS” since that name was already taken, so I signed in as “Joshuaswan.” I found a player named “Lydiandjosh” which I’m sure is you! You signed in two days before I did!! So, is it OK if we start soon? And what should be the time limit for each turn? I hope it works this time! 🙂

        28. Take your time, Lydia! If I set it right, we’re going to play a 3-day game. Well, if 3 days is not enough, I’ll just try to make some dumb moves so that we’ll finish faster! (I probably don’t have to even “try” making them! 😆) I’m going to sleep now, so oyasuminasai!

          (BTW, I accidentally made my first move by moving a pawn two spaces to g-4, so I hope that means it’s your turn!)

        35. So, I REALLY hope my move shows up for you. I did something, but not sure if I did the right thing. If ya know what I mean. Are we seriously suppose to memorize each other’s moves the whole game?

        111. Lol well, honestly, the board looks really weird right now. Most of my pieces are either gone or still in the original place. You went all over and it seems to be that you know what you’re doing.

        209. Not right now…. and just so you know, my parents wanted to check it out just to see what all I’m doing…. protection stuff. 🙂 They’re out of town, but coming home today. I’m sure it’ll be fine.

        17. Oh, that was rude of me! So sorry! Actually, to tell you the truth, I was thinking about that exact comment today and I thought that I should have said, “I have wonderful news… Lydia won!!!” instead of whining about my well-deserved demise…

          I’m funny? . . . Really? Thanks!! You are too, by the way!!! 🙂

        37. Oh my word, Josh! I’m going to die… you are too funny!
          I know… I saw that you “liked” my comment that said “That’s what I thought” and I got confused thinking we were still talking on his site.

        38. Well, I guess I tend to talk better on the internet than in real life… I’m actually a quiet person. And I just lifted up my head to point my eyes at the clock, and guess what… it’s 2:33 in the morning.

          EEEK!!!!
