“THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD” (REPOST)

That was me to my two sons this morning, forcing them to have an appointment with God with me. We read how God asks us to wear love and faithfulness around our necks. And in a short while, I’ll be leaving to take my daughters and my mom out to a church close to our home where my Julie has been harassing me to take her. Sweet!

How’s your relationship with God going? This picture is of me yesterday going for a run with Him. It was a Thank You run, and I came back home feeling like God’s most special girl thinking of all He does for me, even down to the running shoes that I love so much. I especially thought of how He takes ALL my sadness and turns it into such joy. Being sad is like a wakeup call for me to reflect on what’s going wrong in my life and look at it from God’s perspective.

Like lately, the transition from Nigeria to Florida was getting me a little bit sad, but when I had a conversation with God about it, I felt BLESSED. It’s a BIG opportunity for our family in so many ways. I went from being discouraged to being totally inspired to make the most out of this experience. WE CAME TO WIN WITH GOD!

I’m telling you, anything that gets me a little depressed is a chance to run to God and see what He has to say about it. One day He asked, “Am I not your greatest friend?” The world is filled with disappointments and frustrations, but when I focus on God and His blessings, I’m SUPER happy. Even in the biggest trials, we can stay POSITIVE knowing God is for us, and there is nothing we can’t handle with Him helping us to fight our battles – NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD. Our job is to pay attention to His communications and allow Him to direct us one step at a time. God is an expert in EVERYTHING!
