“DON’T EXPECT ANYTHING SPECIAL FROM THIS WORLD”

But do expect God to give you more than you can ever ask or imagine! That’s my testimony, baby! I’m living a life that was designed by God Himself! I look back to the key moments of some significant decisions I’ve made through the years, and let me tell ya, God has been my Guide and Partner before I even developed this close relationship with Him. And this is why I try to be here every day sharing this GREAT NEWS that God’s invisible Presence is intimately involved in our lives. It’s just for us to learn His ways and walk with Him. I have a lot going on with hubby around, but this old post has some crucial info I hope you guys are picking about rolling with God and living your best life with Him as your first love and priority (Wink! Wink!).

“SO LET ME BE FOR REAL WITH YOU…”

To tell you about this remarkable friendship I’ve developed with God. That we all have UNLIMITED access to the Creator of the entire universe at every moment! His guidance has led my life on a gorgeous path where He EXCEEDS my expectations. I call it the sweet life with God!

So, every morning, I wake up to have an appointment with Him reading from our family’s website, werollwithgod.com. This morning I read about a conversation with a friend where I used the word SYNERGY. Minutes later, I go to have an appointment with God, and astonishingly, this very word “SYNERGY” shows up in my meditation book. And because I’ve gotten to know God so well, I knew this was all orchestrated by Him to give His girl here a tiny glimmer of His invisible Presence that is ALWAYS with us.

I’ve known this friend for over ten years now, and it’s a relationship that we’ve developed through spending time together. Not one moment has been wasted because her influence on my decisions has been extraordinary. She’s been this shining example of a person who has most importantly pointed me closer to God (The best kind of friend to have, by the way!). I’ve gotten to know her personality. I know her likes and her dislikes. And the same thing with God. I’ve developed a strong relationship with Him through having devoted alone times with Him and seeking Him continually throughout the day. I’ve learned His personality as well. But most vitally, I’ve learned His voice and HIS INFLUENCE on every decision I make is beyond human comprehension. You just have to experience it for yourself!

Incredibly, on a moment-by-moment basis, I can pick up on what He is saying to me. “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me,” is the Bible verse I run with. I’ve beautifully learned His voice, and I’VE WISELY LEARNED TO FOLLOW HIM! And I want everyone here with me, following THE BEST LEADER EVER: GOD.

Like yesterday, I was talking to one of my kids, and I importantly asked them, “What is God advising you to do?” I said how I’ve learned to listen to Him in my spirit, and feelings of doubt usually mean “don’t” from Him. If I think of going in a particular direction and I don’t feel peaceful about it, I know that’s God’s way of again saying, “Don’t do that!’ However, when I hash out doing something in my spirit with Him, and I feel peaceful, happy, and enthusiastic, then I know that’s His way of saying, “Yes, Nik, this is the way to go.” No peaceful feelings, no move! I stay put! Got all that?

In fact, I’m in a conversation with God all day. I constantly pray for His direction, clarity, and help to sort out any situation I’m facing. I continually receive His answers that are always coming to me through His whispers, nudges, cues, and thoughts that magically pop to mind as to what He would have us to do. This sheep KNOWS God’s voice!

He’s my Shepherd in this crazy world! My phone’s screensaver says, “Let me (God) be the meaning of your composure.” It’s my reminder that I can be calm, at peace, and joyful regardless of what is going on around me because God stands STRONG with me. He’s with you, too! Start making Him a priority and seeking Him first thing every morning, asking, “What do You have to say to me at this moment?” and continually throughout the day asking, “God, what would You have me to do here!’ I promise you, a life lived close to God is the best life! Don’t miss out! Our Shepherd always knows best, and He has great plans for our lives! Say this prayer with me, “God, I want a closer walk with You!’ Amen!

GOD, I’M AT YOUR SERVICE!

I loved a conversation with my son, Emmie, yesterday. He said his dad, NOT ME, works hard to provide for our family financially. I got to share with him how his father and I have come up with a beautiful synergy (combination) where he has his role to play (he is an excellent provider!), and I have my role of being the wife who supports him and our kids, along with doing my work for God in the world.

This is a life that God and I have designed TOGETHER, and I love it! Yesterday, I didn’t go out to the office, but I had a great day with our kids. I brought Emmie to my home office to show him the university brochure where our daughter, Ember, will soon attend. He had asked me what the big deal about it was, and I showed him all the internship opportunities she would have access to, like working with Apple or working on Wall Street in New York city. “She won’t just graduate with a regular degree; she will have experience on her resume working with the top companies in the world. This is where I want you to go as well! You have everything it takes to live a successful life, and it’s my job as your mom to help you become all God has created you to be. While daddy goes out to work, you are my important work, my son!”

And speaking of Ember, I pushed her to go to work even though I didn’t. It’s the essential family values that I want to be instilled in her, like going the extra mile by giving her best at every moment as if working for God. There is a report that I gave her the responsibility of sending her dad every week. “Overwhelm the leaders who work hard for you with love, respect, and appreciation,” I constantly tell her. “Be faithful and dependable with that report. Ask your dad what you can do to help him and give your best!”

In all the work you are doing, work the best you can. Work as if you were doing it for the Lord, not for people. Remember that you will receive your reward from the Lord, which he promised to his people. You are serving the Lord Christ.” – Colossians 3:23-24

I found out that everyone was keeping from me a mistake Ember had made. So, I said to her, “MISTAKES ARE OK! We just have to fix them when they happen.” She proudly called me later to say that she had taken care of the mistake. But just to show me (and hopefully you) how deeply God is involved in our lives, minutes after talking to Ember, I had an appointment with God taking a breather on our coach, feeling so exhausted from being Julie’s driver, housecleaning and cooking for the boys, look what incredibly showed up after me telling Ember that mistakes were OK:

“I cried yesterday listening to a freshman in high school, Madison, pray this prayer at Bel Air’s church in California:

“Dear Lord, thank You for this day. Thank You for waking us up this morning. And thank You for everything You give us. I pray for us to help know Your BOLDNESS. That we will be able to move forward in our faith, in our prayer life, and in everything that we are doing. That You will be at the center of every move we make and KNOW THAT MISTAKES ARE OK (Wink! Wink!). To know that we can move forward and that YOU ARE BY OUR SIDE THROUGH ALL OF IT. And that we will be able to prosper and have abundance and growth and help other people to grow as well through knowing you and knowing your faith and boldness… Amen.”

To tell you the truth, I needed that reminder because I haven’t been the person I would like to be lately. Fall a million times, get up a million and one! But God also told me in that appointment that it doesn’t matter how long we’ve been going in the wrong direction; we can always turn around. (HUGE SMILE) God, may we all be at Your service knowing that you are by our sides through all of it, backing us up with Your strength, wisdom, love, guidance, favor, approval, and faithfulness. Amen!

GOD COMFORTS ME ON A TOUGH DAY

Life is undoubtedly NOT easy! But that’s where a relationship with God comes sweetly in to help us navigate through the rough and challenging times. Like yesterday, I was really down from a cold that was trying to get the best of me, and in all my weakness, God figured out a sweet way to let me know that HE is my strength when I’m weak. This God wink began a few weeks ago when I wrote about this tag showing up:

“Like yesterday, my daughter Julie and I had to go the extra mile in delivering a vehicle we had sold to a customer (the family hustle is on!). As I’m driving, there is a car directly in front of me with a tag saying, “ALI3N.” I tried taking a picture of it when traffic had slowed down to send it to a friend who I refer to as my “ALIEN” because of her out-of-this-world kindness to us. The picture didn’t work, and I was so busy yesterday, I decided to call her this morning to tell her about it, but she was busy. I sent her the following text:

“Just telling you how I was behind a car yesterday with a license plate that said “ALI3N.” You are in God’s thought! No coincidence! Laters!”

Can you believe that yesterday that very “ALI3N” tag showed up again in front of me? Like of all the millions of license plates that could have shown up, God had this very one that was special to me to show up again to remind me that His invisible Presence is ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS with me. There was no way this was some random coincidence, but God Himself orchestrating for this vehicle to meet up (a perfect alignment!) with me to remind me that no matter what life throws my way, I can relax, be full of joy, and KNOW that His Presence is there to guide me through any storm.

Obey God and leave the consequences with Him was the needed reminder I got from Dr. Charles Stanley. It’s like God wanted me to have that weak day just to spend that time relistening to my fav sermons from Dr. Stanley, who gives me such great advice like being obedient to God and following whatever it is He would have me to do. That’s where I want us all! Life is pretty complicated and messy, but we have God’s help guiding us once we learn His voice.

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” John 10:27

Learning His voice is one of the best things we can possibly comprehend. Every day I go to my tree asking God what He has to say to me, and He constantly figures out some way to reveal some glimmer of His Presence. Like when my mom rushed me off the phone yesterday because she was watching a documentary about Joseph, and I told her that Joseph is my fav Bible character. Can you believe this showed up under my God tree in my alone time with Him today (AGAIN, NO COINCIDENCE! ALL ORCHESTRATED PERFECTLY BY GOD!):

_”“Eyes on God _

“But the Lord was with Joseph and extended kindness to him and gave him favor in the sight of the chief jailer.” – Genesis39:21

…A good example of suffering because of other people is Joseph of the Old Testament (Genesis 37-50). After being sold by his brothers into slavery, Joseph found himself in a foreign country, alone and hurting. He had every right to ask, “Why me?” How was Joseph able to hang in there?

First, Joseph recognized that God has given everyone free choice. No one is a puppet or a robot. We can choose to ignore what is right, and God does not force his will on us.

Second, Joseph knew that God saw everything he went through. He never doubted that God cared about him. There is an important phrase that is found five times in the story of Joseph, each time after a major crisis or defeat: “But the Lord was with Joseph.” Even when everything was going wrong, the Lord was still with Joseph.
Remembering these truths allowed Joseph to survive the pain and forgive his brothers in the end—because he kept his eyes on God.

Prayer: Lord, I need to remember that you are with me through sadness and joy, just as you were with Joseph. Thank you for caring for me and caring about me.” – A Purpose Driven Life Devotional For Kids by Rick Warren

And that’s been my testimony! No matter the challenges and problems I face, God stands with me. The best solutions would pop to mind when I know I’m not that smart. People I need will magically show up to assist me. God’s total guidance, strength, wisdom is always there as my backup no matter what comes my way. I just have to show up with my eyes on God, listening to His direction in every moment as to what He would have me to do. (I WILL NOW ADD IN: AND BE OBEDIENT TO HIM, EVEN WHEN IT’S DIFFICULT – CRAZY LADY AND DEVIL, PLEASE GO AWAY, I’M STAYING ON THE HIGHEST ROAD WITH GOD!)

“Trust the Lord with all your heart,
and don’t depend on your own understanding.
Remember the Lord in all you do,
and he will give you success.” – Proverbs 3:5-6

“NIKKI, I’M GOING TO PRAY FOR GOD TO REMOVE THIS FROM YOU”

That was from my new friend, Kathy, the other day when I explained to her the significance of the “311” that showed up in her car. That God wants me to be still and allow Him to fight my battles for me while I stay on the highest road with Him. She said I can call into a prayer line, and they will also pray for this issue to be removed from me. I explained to her that God had already told me no and that He would not remove it and His grace was sufficient for me. That this was my cross to carry for Him and that I should lovingly and joyfully take this cross on His behalf, shining bright all for His glory. And I say, ‘God, no problem! I got You!’

Fast forward to the very next morning, can you believe God confirmed what I said. I was looking at the alarms that I had already set up on my phone. The one for 7:00 am got my attention, and I decided to read page 70 of our family’s website to see what God had to say to me. Look what incredibly showed up, just hours after my discussion with Kathy:

“GOD DOESN’T ALWAYS GIVE US WHAT WE ASK FOR!

That’s the message I’m learning, and CONFIRMED by T.D. Jakes last night. It was a sermon picked by YouTube’s Autoplay, but picked by God specifically for me, entitled, ‘Trusting God When He Says NO.’ Pastor Jakes particularly got my attention when he talked about having days when he didn’t want to get out of bed when I recently entitled one of my videos, ‘I Didn’t Want To Get Out of Bed.’ LOL! So, I definitely related, and I PAID ATTENTION.

It was incredibly a sermon from five years ago but spoke directly to my life TODAY. Like in me praying (begging!!!) God to take an extremely HARD issue away from me, and He has repeatedly said, ‘Nope, Nik, I’m not!’ It’s an issue that gets me so angry and upset that God seems to bring directly to my face to deal with constantly. I say, ‘God, I did not need to know this!!!’ Pastor Jakes even brought two of my fav people in from the Bible, Jesus and the Apostle Paul, and how God told them “no” as well.

Let me tell you, I even have a picture of Jesus in my bathroom, y’all, carrying his cross because it’s my constant reminder that God has asked me to carry my cross – this very issue that keeps me so crazy, sad and depressed where I keep asking, ‘God, what is wrong with me?!?’ Even though I’ve asked God to take it away MANY times, He doesn’t, and I eventually just repeat what Jesus said, “Your will not mine be done.” Then, the Apostle Paul asked three times for a thorn to be removed from his side, but God told him “no” and said His grace was sufficient that when we are weak, His strength will come through for us.

Right after listening to the sermon, I go to have an appointment with God reading my meditation book, He and I, and can you believe God confirmed that it was a sermon picked by Him for me? As I continued reading from where I had last left off, these words showed up, “My grace is sufficient for you.” Then as I continued reading some more, Jesus’ words also miraculously appeared: “My Father—‘Your will not Mine be done.’ That was a double God wink after both of these quotes had just shown up in Pastor Jakes’ sermon.

Do you guys like how God sweetly told me, ‘NO?’ Nik, I’m not giving you what you’ve been praying for, but I do promise that My Presence will always be here to help you deal with this situation, and my grace is sufficient for you – when you are weak, I will be your strength. And by the way, as you deal with this FRUSTRATING issue, I want you teaching others about all the hard lessons you’re learning from having to deal with it too. My response, the same as Jesus’: “My Father—‘Your will not Mine be done.’

As for those difficult lessons, Apostle Paul summed them up perfectly:

“But the Spirit produces the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. There is no law that says these things are wrong.” – Galatians 5:22-23

And if God wants me to carry this cross, I will do so joyfully, lovingly, and patiently. God, anything for You! Thanks for taking such excellent care of my family and me. Everything is between You and me, not between me and anyone else.”

Last night, I had the pleasure of dropping off my sons and their friend, Sammy, at Calvary Church. I stayed in my car for a little bit telling God that I will follow Jesus who carried His cross to Calvary, asking for His will to be done in my life, not my will. Amen.

“WHO CAN TREAT ME BETTER THAN YOU AND GOD?”

That was me to my hubby a few minutes ago! Let me tell ya, he goes from one minute of being my gift from God, to the other minute my cross that I have to carry for God! LOL! But helping me to tackle this messy love/marriage thing: GOD!!!

Like this “311” that shows up continuously. I wrote this a few days ago:

“… whenever “311” shows up, it’s His reminder that I should stay on the high road with Him (after He protected Julie yesterday, I’m on the HIGHEST road, y’all!). That I should specifically BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD and that He is behind the scenes of my life fighting battles for me. So when I want to stress, get frustrated, and anxious about anything, He sends this “311” to beautifully say, ‘Nik, I got you! Relax and enjoy your life!’”

So, unbelievably, a customer I recently sold a car to had a little issue yesterday. I jumped into the vehicle to see what she was talking about. Immediately as I went to turn down the volume of her music playing, you would not believe this, but she was playing CD 3 and track 11, and the time that had elapsed on that very song was 3:11. On the screen was exactly “3/11 3:11.”

No one can tell me that this was all coincidence! It was God reminding me to stay on the highest road with Him being my most loving, forgiving, and gentlest self. When the crazy lady wants to be all angry and frustrated, I have to calmly remind her that we’re obeying God and leaving the consequences with Him, no matter what hubby does, I aim to be the best wife possible, ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD. He is my BOSS!!!

When the cross part of the marriage shows its ugly head, I have decided to lovingly and joyfully carry it for God. That means being silent and pretending I don’t see what I see or hear what I hear, overlooking 10,000 of hubby’s faults because God overlooks 10,001 of my own. If I have to be the peacemaker and glue holding my family together, no problem!

“Always be full of joy!” is the Bible verse I want to run with because I know that as I carry my spec of a cross, God is helping me in the spiritual realm, tweaking situations on my behalf that I CAN TRUST HIM WITH ALL MY HEART. He gives me more than I can ever imagine or ask for! Let’s all be God’s people in the world, loving extravagantly and forgiving endlessly! Nobody’s perfect!

“Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Then you will find favor with both God and people, and you will earn a good reputation. Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.” – Proverbs 3:3-6

“MOMMY, YOU’RE THE ONE WHO PUTS THE RANGE IN THE ROVER!”

That was my son Joshie on Friday when I picked them up from school in a Range Rover. “This is the car we should have been driving since!” he excitedly said. A few days before this, we called my husband in Nigeria from the US to say how the neighbors, two houses away from us, the son goes to the same school as the boys, have a Range Rover, and we’re driving a Honda (a super faithful vehicle, by the way!). I jokingly said to hubby, “The Junior CEOs and I have decided that we need a Range Rover to drive!” He surprisingly said, “There is one at the shippers. I’ll let you know this afternoon if you guys can use that one.” Of course, hubby agreed (Perks of being in the car business!)! But my fav part of this story was getting home after dropping the boys off, and I’m listening to DJ Khaled’s song, where I took these lyrics as God saying this to me:

“It ain’t nothing for me to spoil you.” Wink! Wink!

And spoil me is what God and hubby do best! This picture is of my daughters and me today driving the Range to church, baby! We attended the church where we went every Sunday years ago, and we would pass this Audi dealership, and my husband would announce that it was ours. Not knowing this extraordinary man would replicate it in Nigeria. “That church brought us good favor! Let’s go back there!” I told the girls.

Honestly, I’m so grateful to Nigeria for changing our lives. It was there where I started writing these blogs ad learning some crucial values. God took my family and me on an adventure with Him, where we met some remarkable people who embodied Love and Loyalty so that I can be here today to teach you God’s kind of love and faithfulness: THAT NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE ELSE IS DOING, He calls us to be devoted, loyal, faithful, reliable, steady, patient, enduring and dedicated, always going the extra mile in love and forgiveness.

A conversation with my brother, Kevin, helped me figure out God’s ways yesterday in another one of our sacred conversations. I like talking to him to get a male perspective on things! Previously, we had discussed that I would stop the cartoon show of Tom and Jerry and end the never-ending cat and mouse chase of seeking my husband’s love and approval. Since then, God has been reminding me that His love and acceptance of me are enough, and my job is to share the love with others that I abundantly receive from Him. Kk, Boss!

We also discussed that I would free my husband in Nigeria from my “tracking” phone calls as if that’s my job to keep track of his constant whereabouts. God, has been saying, “No, Nik! I want you contacting your husband from a space of love (not crazy lady!).’ ‘God, that’s hard!’ I argued back, ‘It’s best I don’t call him at all. Just leave him to live his life wife free for now.’ I then felt God saying that I should continue calling hubby, but I can tap into His strength, wisdom, tact, personality, and charisma on a moment-by-moment basis. GOD IS OUR GREATEST FRIEND! I told Kevin that it’s my job to show you guys and my kids how to take on life with God joyfully and courageously. Heehaw!

So, on the way to church, we tried calling hubby, but he didn’t answer. But leaving, we reached him on speakerphone in the Range, and I did what God said; I tapped into His strength and personality, laughing and joking with hubs, while demonstrating to my daughters about God’s kind of love and faithfulness. Where we do everything for His glory, knowing everything is between God and us, not between us and anyone else.

Like a conversation with my daughter, Julie, last night before sleeping. She casually told me that she pretty much has already qualified for a full scholarship to a top college in the US, where they would pay for her total tuition and living expenses. That’s the faithfulness of God in action. He gives us exceedingly abundantly above that we ask when we stay on the high road with Him. Wink! Wink! Don’t miss out on the sweet life with God!! DO EVERYTHING FOR HIS GLORY!!!

“YOU’RE MY FAVORITE”

That’s not only the message on my coffee mug this morning, but seriously how God makes me feel with all the love and attention He shows me. Like yesterday, my sweetie daughter, Julie, had an accident on this major highway here in the US, and can you believe she was able to simply wipe off the scuff marks from her car? From the first day I brought that vehicle home for Julie to drive, I told her that God told me He would be her protection as she drove it. And He hasn’t disappointed us!

First, it was the red light that she ran that God sent me to that exact intersection at the perfect time to protect Julie from another car hitting her. It was crazy, but at the green light for me, my spirit told me to stop. The next thing I knew, my little baby girl was coming out, running the red light on her side. There was a big truck in front of her and she didn’t see that the light had turned red. But like I told her yesterday, mistakes are OK. We learn the lessons, and we keep going. God, THANK YOU!!! Your love never fails me (HUGE SMILE).

But I’m not selfish, I want you to feel all this love God shows me. Like I always tell you guys about how God talks to me through numbers a lot. For example, whenever “311” shows up, it’s His reminder that I should stay on the high road with Him (after He protected Julie yesterday, I’m on the HIGHEST road, y’all!). That I should specifically BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD and that He is behind the scenes of my life fighting battles for me. So when I want to stress, get frustrated, and anxious about anything, He sends this “311” to beautifully say, ‘Nik, I got you! Relax and enjoy your life!’

So on Monday, your girl woke up stressing (hey, I’m only human!). But here is how God showed up. First, it was a customer who I offered to pick up. She sent me the address from where she had to return a rental vehicle, and the building number ended in “311.” Next, I’m filling out her application to apply for the loan, and her zip code astonishingly ends in “311.” I submitted her application, and the first bank that approved her, the payment turned out to be exactly “$311.11.” No way these were all random coincidences; they were all orchestrated by God to remind me of His deep love for me and that He is by my side as I bravely, courageously, and lovingly take on my life. HEEHAW!!!

I’ve disappeared on you guys for a bit, hanging with the best brother ever, Kevin. We had some sacred conversations, and he helped me to figure out where I’ve seriously been making a mistake. I allowed my life and happiness to revolve too much around my husband. The fretful and insecure wife needed to go! Kevin correctly explained that I needed to have a life apart from my husband so that when I’m not with him, I’m building a life of my own and not fretting about his whereabouts that and I will lose him. I need to hold hubby with open hands, freeing Him to live his life, while I’m sucking up to God’s deep, unconditional and unfailing love for me, enjoying my life with Him. Like me and my sons hanging with Kevin two nights in a row. Let me tell ya, your girl here had the best time! I took the boys into an art gallery and made a pic there my phone’s screensaver, crucially reminding me:

“LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL”

Especially when you seek a closer walk with God! He got us no matter the troubles that come our way! Wink! Wink!

I LOVE MY CONVERSATIONS WITH MY BROTHER, KEVIN

Today, we spoke about living life with one foot on earth, where the challenges, frustrations, hurts, and disappointments constantly show up. The other foot in heaven with our focus on God asking what He would have us do in every moment, being His angels, no matter what anyone else is doing. And to just be about living a life pleasing to Him:

God, with all the craziness in the world right now, what can I do to make you smile and happy?

I’m wisely learning to tackle every moment from a God perspective. I feel Him out in my spirit (The Holy Spirit within each of us) as to what He would have me to say, what He would have me to do, and where He would have me to go. Based on His voice that I’ve come to learn over the years, I’m pretty good at feeling out the cues, nudges, and signs from Him. Like today, I really wanted to get the boy’s haircut but debated whether this was a good day. The next thing I knew, a truck passed by me on the highway with a big sign saying “BARBERS,” and I knew it was God saying I should get their hair cut today. I did!

I’m feeling extremely close to God right now, but I still prayed for Him to pull me even closer to Him. I pray the same for you. God’s ways are not always easy to follow, but I promise you, His ways are always best. Today, I’m at work with my sons and daughter, and I’m so grateful to God and Kevin for helping me to get to this gorgeous life. I’m grateful I had patience. It ain’t perfect but I’m celebrating every day like it’s a birthday and every night like New Year’s Eve, where I can importantly learn the lessons and keep waking up and moving towards progressing to an even better version of myself taking these crucial lessons from Kevin with me:

▪ Be on chill (not taking anything too seriously) for life.
▪ God will level out the mountains. Leave the battles with Him.
▪ Don’t try to be God, be God’s angel.
▪ You’re going to have to be patient right now.
▪ Don’t force anyone to do anything they don’t want to do.
▪ Marriage is like a team. When one spouse is weak, the other must take over being strong and vice versa.
▪ The good, the bad are all a part of God’s divine plan. Even the ants gathering crumbs to take to their nest to feed the baby ants in a world of superjumbo jets.
▪ You are your own worst enemy!!!
▪ Don’t call me again (to complain). Only contact me to tell me what a gorgeous life you have.
▪ I want you to work on being wise.
▪ SHINE BRIGHT! Let people look at you and say, “Where did this woman get all this strength from.”
▪ If Jesus can ask God to forgive the people who nailed him to the cross, who can we not forgive?
▪ GET CLOSER TO GOD, MAKE HIM YOUR TOP PRIORITY

“LET ME TAKE OVER THE CAR BUYING!!!”

One thing about me is that I’m very persistent (annoyingly persistent!), and after insisting to my husband that I will take over that responsibility from him, he has finally allowed me to be in charge of the buying of inventory for our business here. But, yesterday, God confirmed that He is my Partner in this challenging endeavor with a shortage of used vehicles in the US at the moment. Here’s how:

“You want to hear a story,” the BMW dealer advisor asked me yesterday. After buying a vehicle from Georgia, an issue came up, and I prayed to God for a couple of days on how to handle it. I finally felt Him say that I should take it to this specific BMW dealership in Florida (thousands of miles away from where I purchased it). The advisor called me yesterday saying that this specific vehicle was there before at their dealership. And instead of calling me, he called the previous owner, asking her why the car was back to him without her tag (license plate). She explained that she traded in the vehicle for another vehicle and was no longer the owner. He was blown away when I told him that I had purchased it from another state, but God said I should send it back there for it to be checked out.

“Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty.”

This was God confirming that His Spirit is with me as I buy the cars and as I figure out how to handle problems related to them. This is too much to be some regular coincidence. It’s God showing me His deep and personal involvement in my life. The advisor was able to tell me the service history of the vehicle!

Then, I shared with this advisor that I wanted to give this vehicle to my daughter, Julie, because she has been my right hand lately. I go to work a couple of hours later, and my manager said a lady wants to talk to me about buying this car. I called her, trying to sell her another BMW, but she insisted on this particular one for her daughter. In my heart, I want to keep it for Julie, but I woke up this morning and felt God strongly in my spirit that He wants me to sell this car to this lady for her daughter. I texted her saying, this is crazy, but God is telling me I should sell the car to you guys. This was unbelievably her response:

“My daughter, the one I’m buying a car for, already reads scripture every day. I am so blessed that He is the center of our lives. It’s always nice to meet a fellow Christian. What a crazy world we live in today. I prayed about this car last night. He never stops amazing me. Please let me know what you decide on the price. I can be there today with a money order, cashier’s check, or whatever you wish.”

Not only does God help me buy the cars, His favor even goes as far as sending beautiful people to buy them. God is too much!!! Today, I wanted to tell you guys about my daughter, Julie, and the Godly principles I’m learning from her, like her loyalty, faithfulness, integrity, discipline, integrity, strong work ethics, and genuine kindness. I’m blessed! And why I live my life with the mindset that everything is between God and me, not between me and anyone else. I let people do whatever they want, but I stick on the high road trying my best to follow God’s voice in everything I do, even when it’s super difficult. I had a glory moment with goosebumps all over me singing this song today:

“Your grace is all-sufficient
It’s an all-sufficient grace
Your power and Your glory
Are forever on display
And Your loving kindness
Loving kindness
Is better than life

ll your ways are just, you’re just in all your ways
I will lift my hands in gratitude and praise
Life can be uncertain at times
Your loving never fails” – Better Than Life, Israel Houghton

The best advice I can give you guys is to make God your top priority and seek His guidance in everything you do. I hope you are seeing His PERSONAL and deep involvement in my life!!! Another customer yesterday told me how God Himself drove her into our dealership to buy a car from us. My son, Joshie, proudly told her the family standards for buying vehicles from the auction because we’re trying to honor God in everything we do. (HUGE SMILE)
