The way He shows me such love and attention!!!! Like, I’ll be honest with you, yesterday was an awful day dealing with some messy love stuff that I shouldn’t be dealing with, but it is what it is, folks. So, in all my hurts and frustrations, I cried to God, of course, and He showed up in all His awesomeness. I noticed He drew my attention to the small date in the corner of my computer with the day’s date of “17.” I took it as a nudge to go to page 17 of our family’s website and look what incredibly showed up in an old post from years ago:
“I pretty much played one song repeatedly, ‘Let Me Be Love You,’ (William Singe’s version), imagining God singing these lyrics to me:
“You should let Me (God) love you
Let me be the One to
Give you everything you want and need
Ooh baby good love and protection
Make Me your selection
Show you the way love’s supposed to be”
I read that, and it immediately turned my depressing thoughts into such joy and laughter with God. I knew right away that this was His fun and special way of speaking directly to me, sweetly saying, ‘Nik, how many times do you want Me to repeat this to you? LET ME BE THE ONE TO LOVE YOU, My Girl!!!” (AND STOP EXPECTING SO MUCH FROM OTHER PEOPLE!!!)
But the God wink didn’t stop there! Told you guys I needed to get some work done, and I turned on my music, allowing God to be the DJ, but I kept clicking through the first 4 songs (not feeling them!), and on the 5th one, out of the entire library of over 800 songs, look what showed up, minutes after reading that post:
“You should let Me love you
Let me be the One to
Give you everything you want and need
Ooh baby good love and protection
Make Me your selection
Show you the way love’s supposed to be”
This time it was the original version of the song by Mario. No coincidence, baby! Only God showing me His deep love!!! God, let me be the one to love you!!! (HUGE SMILE)
I still had page 17 up on my computer screen with the lyrics there, and I was just blown away how God would even go to the extent of confirming that this message was Him speaking to me in that awful day by having that song play. God, I will finally take you up on this offer, and let YOU be the One to love me!
I loved another special wink from Him yesterday, too. I had written this in my last post, feeling God in my spirit dictating these words to say to you guys:
“We do not follow the ordinary rules when we walk in faith with God.”
Then for another appointment with God, I asked Him where I should go to hear from Him, and the feeling was my book this time of 366 old blog posts. I took the scroll key at the bottom and just asked God what He wanted me to read, and of all those 366 posts, I promise you, I landed directly on the one entitled:
“WE’RE NOT GOING BY THE ORDINARY RULES” Wink! Wink!
See why I say I’m God’s fav? From sensing in my spirit to include that sentence in my last post for Him to use my big book from so many years ago to confirm that it was indeed His voice I heard directing me to include that sentence.
For me, not going by the ordinary rules means we can take life courageously, bravely, happily, and joyously knowing God Himself is with us in every moment, assisting us in the spiritual realm, no matter the situations that come our way. Even with these messy love lessons! What can I say? I’m Tom Brady and Mike Tyson combined now. I take the punches for the team, doing my thing for my family and God.
I just want you guys to know that I’m no longer on the high road with God, I’m on the HIGHEST road, asking, no matter the situation I’m confronted with, ‘God, how can I enter this moment to glorify You?’ Despite the disappointments, I have no regrets, and l look forward to better days ahead for our family together, all by the grace of God! Ain’t nothing perfect, guys! STAY STRONG! Ask God for His moment-by-moment direction as to what He would have you do. Let God be the One to love you, then spread His love to the rest of the world, beginning in our homes.
”But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” – Galatians 5:22-23
Let’s make Papa God proud out there!!! AND LET HIM BE THE ONE TO LOVE US!!!
