I’M FEELING SO CLOSE TO GOD!

Like the other morning, I had a mini panic attack during my run, debating whether my daughters should get an apartment in New York to stay and work over the summer. I had to stop the run, sit down for a few minutes, and have time with God to talk about it. I had run 2 miles, so I said, let me go to page 2 of our family’s website and see what God had to say to me there. Out of over 140 web pages, look what incredibly showed up in the first blog at the very top of page 2, written months ago:

“So, this morning, my daughters were talking about getting an apartment in New York.”

THE VERY ISSUE I STOPPED MY RUN TO TALK TO GOD ABOUT!!!! It was another one of my God winks, where God is saying this:

“As you go through this day, look for tiny treasures strategically placed along the way. I LOVINGLY GO BEFORE YOU and plant little pleasures to brighten your day. Look carefully for them, and pluck them one by one.” – Jesus Calling

See the love of God! He lovingly went ahead of me and planted that post there on page 2, knowing I would need that glimmer of His Presence to increase my faith in Him and remind me that we’re not tackling this parenting alone-God is with us! God is DEEPLY involved in our lives!!! The next morning, still not knowing definitely whether that meant the girls should or should not get an apartment, He spoke again in the appointment with Him that I had with my husband:

“Trust Me to take care of your loved ones. They are safe with me. My Presence never leaves them—just as I never leave you.” – Jesus Calling Devotional For Kids

See how God can use everything for our good! Even my anxieties were an opportunity for Him to pull me closer to His heart, saying, Nik, not only I am always with you, I’m with your daughters too!!! My Presence will be with them whether they are in New York or with you! Phew! See how God fills my life with His joy, peace, and Presence? Don’t miss out! Make sure you are having your alone times with Him!
