THIS A WHOLE LOTTA LOVE; AIN’T TRYING TO WASTE IT (REPOST)
That’s how I’m feeling about God right now! I went out on an extra long run with Him today, and He didn’t disappoint. He showed up. As I played the song, ‘RACKS in the Middle,’ I turned a bend, there was a truck with the word “RACK” directly in front of me. And that right there was one of my God winks where everything lines up a little bit too perfectly to be some ordinary occurrence (coincident), it was God’s sweet way of saying, ‘Nik, my invisible Presence is always with you.’ There was no way that out of all the songs in the world, I just happened to be listening to this specific one while jogging pass that truck – all God orchestrated for His girl over here to show me His deep love.
This love is too good for me to keep it to myself, y’all! Are you feeling it? My son, Joshie, has been calling me a lot from Nigeria and I’ve been taking advantage of these sacred times to have appointments with God with him. And the one we had yesterday asked, “What do you have that you haven’t received from God?” Nothing. This son who I get to love up is a gift from Him, as well as the rest of my family. To be able to go out and run today was another gift. Many people didn’t make it to see this day. I’m not taking anything for granted! I’m sucking up God’s love!
I read an email from Joel Osteen about being content in any and every circumstance. Not just enduring, but enjoying. I took it as another wink from God that He wants me ENJOYING my life with Him. Ok, Boss! That goes for us all! Let’s be content, rejoicing always in whatever situations we find ourselves with our eyes ever towards the Lord, sucking up His love and seeking His guidance for our lives. Amen.
