“WE’RE NOT LUCKY; WE’RE BLESSED!” That was me to my sweetie pie daughter, Ember, yesterday when she asked me to wish her luck on a test. “We’re rolling with God! That means His favor, wisdom, and strength follow us wherever we go. We just have to walk in His confidence and boldness, knowing He is …
GOD JUST MADE ME CRY (REPOST) I got a feeling from Him to read page 38 of our family’s website, werollwithgod.com, for an appointment with Him. I had written this eight months ago: ““WISH WE WERE THERE WITH YOU GUYS” That was me to my hubby today. He and the boys are in Nigeria, and …

GUESS WHO IS BACK RUNNING? Me, baby! Can’t let a little cold get me down! And I had the best time with my Nike Running Club’s Coach Cory jogging up and down the stairs of our home in Nigeria. He kept reminding me that I was powerful and strong. Yes!!! I have a big project …
“WHAT WAS THE BEST PART OF YOUR DAY?” That was me questioning my Emmanuels (hubby and two sons) while we ate dinner last night. I told them how I was feeling so sick (a cold), discouraged, and overwhelmed by some big balls I have in the air, when my son, Joshie, came and asked me …
MOMMY, WHY ARE YOU STILL IN BED? That was my daughter, Ember, to me the other day. Honestly, it was just the wakeup call I needed, ‘Yes, Ms. Nikki, why are you still in bed?’ I immediately jumped up, threw on my exercise clothes, and went for a run with God to hash out what …
