“NOT EVERYONE IS AS STRONG AS YOU, MS. NIKKI” That was from my sweetie daughter, Julie, yesterday. I used the conversation as an opportunity to share with her some of my weaknesses (mostly depressing and negative thinking) and how I’ve found that I must be a very regimented person to tackle them. I’m talking appointments …

“GOD LOVES ME TOO TOO MUCH!!!” That was me bragging to my husband this morning after a day where God showed His invisible Presence with me THE ENTIRE DAY yesterday! Here’s how those God winks went down: The day before yesterday, I entered our showroom, and there was a couple there buying a car. I …
NO SHAME IN MY GAME (REPOST) Every day I run to the end of those 47 trees God had lined up for me in celebration of my 47th birthday, and I give that last tree a high five and say, ‘GOD, WE’RE TOGETHER. WE’RE TOGETHER. WE’RE TOGETHER.’ Like yesterday, that meant parking somewhere before getting …
“FORGET SHINING BRIGHTLY” “You can’t shine any brighter. I want you to work on being wise.” Wow! Wow! Wow! That statement from my brother, Kevin, blew me away yesterday! And that’s what I want us all working on, by God’s grace, being the WISE mothers, fathers, wives, husbands, sons, daughters, friends, relatives, employers, employees, and …
GOD JUST MADE ME CRY I got a feeling from Him to read page 38 of our family’s website, werollwithgod.com, for an appointment with Him. I had written this eight months ago: ““WISH WE WERE THERE WITH YOU GUYS” That was me to my hubby today. He and the boys are in Nigeria, and me …
‘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 …
“WHY ARE YOU ASKING ME?” I questioned my daughters yesterday after they called, asking if they could go for a run in a nearby park. I wasn’t expecting this response (I paraphrase here): “Mom, you were the one who kept saying, “Let’s do hard things!” You’re so brave. You’re fearless! We see you running through …
“JUST CALLING TO CHECK IN WITH MY QUARANTINE BUDDY” That was me to my sister-in-law, Verona, yesterday. My brother, Kevin, had surprisingly called my husband very early that morning, and I thought to check in with Verona a few hours later. I was so thrilled that I did! I don’t know if you guys remember …
“COUNT ON ME.” That’s God confirming His constant message to your girl here! This time through my meditation book, He and I. It was a disappointment that had me asking God why people were so evil, and driving back from an early morning errand, this Sanchez song played. I knew immediately, it was a direct …
“SWEET THING…DON’T YOU KNOW YOU’RE MY EVERYTHING!” Oh, my goodness! That was me singing to God on my morning run with Him up and down our stairs, and I don’t want you missing out on the best relationship EVER! I’ve surrendered my entire life to Him, and this morning He reminded me to be about …
