“SOMETIMES I DON’T MIND YOU HAVING THE WORST DAY”

Is what God tells me! God, me either! (HUGE SMILE) These awful days bring me closer to Him and to the other side of some great lessons He would have me to learn and share with you guys. The awful day was Sunday, and your girl here was all hurt AGAIN. But I’m getting like a boxer who becomes numb to the pain after getting their head knocked so many times. Warrior style, STAYING LOYAL, FAITHFUL, AND COMMITTED, all for the glory of God!

My daughter, Julie, insisted I go for my run to have my alone time with God, but I stubbornly didn’t go, telling her that I knew God was with me at every moment and the run wasn’t necessary. Then, whenever I’m upset, I run to food for comfort. I ended up eating brownies and pizza with my Tom Brady mindset to train every day like an athlete completely going out of the window.

The following day, I woke up still in a funk but decided to play some music to cheer myself up. I told you guys that God speaks to me a lot through Apple Music, and this station I created the night before, where Apple Music selects the songs from various artists (not me), this song, which is extremely special to me and God played:

“I feel good
When you’re wrapped up in My arms
Dancing to a reggae song
Feel good, feel good
I feel good
‘Cause your perfume isn’t loud
And only I can talk about
Feel good, feel good” – Feel Good, Beres Hammond

I wrote all about it yesterday, like a crazy person:

“I’m living life from the perspective that whatever comes my way, the blows, the challenges, frustrations, disappointments, that I’m walking through life at every moment with God, where He is smelling my perfume.”

Fast forward to today, I’m waiting for some cars to come up at the auction to purchase for our family hustle and decided at 29 minutes past the hour to have an appointment with God, look what sweetly showed up on page 29 of our family’s website from almost a year ago:

“Not only does He comfort me with so many of our favorite Bible verses that show up everywhere, but He also sings to me! Call me crazy, but this morning, in the middle of my run with Him, I was bawling, crying like a baby feeling so loved by God. This God wink started when I woke up to have my regular appointment with Him reading our family’s website, we rollwithgod.com. At 51 minutes past the hour, I go to read page 51, with this post showing up at the top:

“‘I FEEL GOOD’
Let me tell ya! I’m having the best time listening to Beres Hammond’s song, as if God is singing to me:

“I feel good
When you’re wrapped up in My arms
Dancing to a reggae song
Feel good, feel good
I feel good cause your perfume isn’t loud
That only I can talk about
Feel good, feel good”

God said I should find new ways of enjoying Him, and I’m doing exactly that, imagining that I’m going through my life wrapped up in His arms dancing to a reggae song, with only Him smelling my perfume. (SMILE)”
No way this was a random coincidence! It was God sweetly reminding me that this is where He wants us all, walking through life, cool, calm, and confident, KNOWING THERE IS NEVER A MOMENT HIS INVISIBLE PRESENCE IS NOT WITH US. That hurt from Sunday was just the blow upside the head I needed to get myself focused on God and not the craziness going on in my head, feeling so insecure and fretful all the time. Nik, you’re God’s girl, baby!!! I got a beautiful message yesterday on WhatsApp that I knew was God again talking directly to me:

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid (John 14:26-27). May you be braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think in the name of Jesus Christ.

May the Lord of the host open your eyes wide to all the courage, strength, and wisdom he has for you in Christ. May the Lord crush your INSECURITIES AND DOUBTS (Wink! Wink!) so that you might be an effective witness of his power in Jesus’ name. God richly bless you please child of God.” Amen!

God, I want to be an effective witness for You! If I’m honest with you guys, these insecurities really hold me back. But God makes everything beautiful in His time. When I look back on how silly I’ve been, He lovingly tells me to keep going as if nothing has happened because crying over past failures is only a waste of time and energy, which are precious gifts from Him. He holds our sins away from us as far as the east is from the west, and that’s where He wants us with others. “Love covers a multitude of sins.” AND HE LOVES US FAR MORE THAN THE WHOLE WORLD EVER COULD!

Let’s stop going wrong by looking to others for their love and attention and start focusing on God’s love. We can then share His love with others while focusing on God and the vital work He would have for us to do. Wink! Wink! I’m having such a great time with my kids as I teach them the family hustle. But they are teaching me lots too, like intense focus, hard work, and giving our best every day. Amen! I love my family! We ain’t perfect, but we’re pretty close!
