‘GOD, WHY DID YOU GO THROUGH SO MUCH TROUBLE?’

is the question I’ve been asking Him since the God wink with my purse showing up in the TV show ‘Empire’ last Saturday.  In case you’re not familiar with my God winks, they’re as Oprah Winfrey describes them, “When out of the blue everything lines up perfectly.”  And this was a little bit too perfectly lined up for me to have a purse in my closet for almost a year and every time I would think about using it, I would get a feeling not to, and I would put it back.  Then last Saturday, two days after I finally got the feeling to bring it down, I’m out somewhere with a friend and I asked her, “Do you remember when you bought this purse for me last summer?”  A few hours later, we’re together watching this show that of all episodes that we had been watching for about a month, the character, ‘Anika’ stands in front of a car holding this purse for a few seconds so that we can see clearly that out of the millions of purses in the world, she is holding my exact purse (different color).

Well, God answered me as to why He went through all that trouble!  Firstly in a post in Facebook that read:

“I am not afraid of tomorrow because I know God is already there.”

God is constantly teaching me to RELAX and that He holds every moment of my life in the palms of His hands. He knew I would be asking my friend that question that day and that we would be watching that very episode a few hours later. He has demonstrated over and over again that I can trust that He has everything under control and everything and everyone I need will be there when I need them.  Nik, RELAX, I got you!

The second reason I read in my meditation book at my 12pm appointment with God yesterday:

“I want you to experience how wide and long and high and deep is My love for you, so that you can know my love that surpasses knowledge.  This vast ocean of Love cannot be measured or explained, but it can be experienced.”

And these messages are not only for me, they’re for you too, I’m only the God maniac who pays attention to this stuff! God has every moment of our lives all mapped and planned out and we can trust Him because His love for us is wide and long and high and deep and His plans for us are good! 

WE ROLL WITH GOD
