“I LIKE YOU, GIRL, IN PARTICULA” Call me crazy, but I felt this was God singing to me through the song ‘Particular,’ by Major Lazer running up and down the stairs of our house in Nigeria this morning.

DO I USE GOD AS A WAY OF COPING WITH MY TERRIBLE LIFE? (REPOST) I share my ups, downs, disappointments, frustrations, joyful and happy times, problems and proud moments, stresses and anxieties, weak, strong, brave and courageous moments to hopefully portray the fact that I’m going through this human experience just like everyone else, where …
“WHAT WAS THE BEST PART OF YOUR DAY?” (REPOST) That was me questioning my Emmanuels (hubby and two sons) while we ate dinner last night. I told them how I was feeling so sick (a cold), discouraged, and overwhelmed by some big balls I have in the air, when my son, Joshie, came and asked …
“NOT EVERYONE IS AS STRONG AS YOU, MS. NIKKI” That was from my sweetie daughter, Julie, yesterday.

ANOTHER RUN IN THE RAIN!!! (REPOST) Let me tell ya, these alone times with God are what keep your girl here at peace, calm, relaxed, and happy KNOWING I’M NOT GOING THROUGH LIFE ALONE. I go and touch the last of the 47 trees God had perfectly lined up for me after my 47th birthday, …
‘GOD, MAY I PLEASE STOP THE BLOG FOR NOW?’ I kept asking Him earlier this year when I felt stressed, overwhelmed, depressed, and like I was on the verge of losing my mind. No joke. It was a lot. But He kept saying, ‘No, Nik, the work for Me continues.’ Every day, I did my …
GOD IS IN THE FIRES WITH US!!! Let me tell ya! Last night, hubby brought up an issue again where he feels I did something very awful (which I didn’t), and I’ve been just ignoring him, forgiving him, and doing my best to stay on the high road with God. This has been going on …
