“I’M CALLING AGAIN TO TELL YOU WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LIFE I HAVE”
That was me to my brother, Kevin, yesterday. His reply was, “Neeks, you have a gorgeous life.”
Glory be to God! I’m walking hand in hand with Him and asking Him to be my Guide, Partner, Helper, Strength, Love, Planner, Father, Therapist, Friend, Coach, Protection, Strategist, and Teacher. A good thirteen years ago, I said a prayer, ‘God, I want a closer walk with You.’ And let me tell ya, that’s the best prayer I’ve ever said because the closer you walk with God, the sweeter your life becomes. HEEHAW!!!
Even the other night, I was ANGRILY confronted by someone at our office in the night with only me and them there. And your girl here didn’t flinch – MY GOD IS WITH ME. I politely spoke to them, but they refused to calm down and left me to close by myself. But, no problem, I felt totally safe and secure, KNOWING God never leaves my side. I’m always protected.
His invisible Presence is always showing up for me. Like the other day, before leaving to a Drivers’ License appointment with my daughter, Julie, I gave Ember, my other daughter a kiss on her head saying, “LOYALTY.” Julie and I get to the DMV line, and the second person ahead of us is wearing a shirt with “LOYALTY” printed on the back. That was 40 minutes or so after kissing Ember and saying “LOYALTY.” It was God’s sweet way of revealing His invisible Presence with us there. Loyalty and faithfulness are one of the essential values He’s teaching me. Don’t worry what anyone else is doing, loyalty and faithfulness are repaid by God Himself.
Every day I run to the end of my 47 trees that God lined up for me to run under in celebration of my 47th birthday, and I give that tree a high five. That’s where I get my confidence booster for the day. I know with God I can tackle anything that comes my way with His wisdom, love, and strength.
Will you say that prayer, ‘God, I want a closer walk with You.’ I do not promise an easy life, but I do promise you love and support like no other. God shows up for me as if I’m the only person in the world. But don’t take my word for it, continually give Him your hand and live a life that you feel is pleasing to Him in every moment (trust me, it doesn’t have to be perfect!). He sees our hearts. Then have focused time with Him every day reading or listening to anything spiritual so that you can begin learning His voice for direction for your life.
