About Christy Nichols (https://www.giftofthree.com/)

My name is Christy Nichols and Ephesians 2:10 confirms that I am a masterpiece created anew in Christ Jesus so I can live out the plans He made for me before I was ever born!

A Human Services professional by trade and Christian Communicator by calling, I am confident in who I belong to and what I'm meant to do with my life. God has instilled a deep longing in me to be His vessel, sharing a testimony which speaks to the love and protection of a loving Father.
