I first began tracking my “signs” when I read a book called When GOD Winks on Love: Let the Power of Coincidence Lead You to Love by SQuire Rushnell. It was a tiny little book with a BIG message! It’s all about observing signs from God which Rushness calls a “wink” that tells you when you’re heading in the right direction. I actually began taking notice of these signs as far back as 2004 and notated everything from having a water bottle almost hit me on the head when I was extremely thirsty to finding a Masters program in a topic I was interested in while perusing a newspaper. Five years later, I’ll admit that I haven’t really been dedicated to my search for signs. That’s why when I had a “Godwink” moment today, I couldn’t wait to share it here.
Recently, I’ve been feeling the effects of modern day busyness. I often feel like my body can’t quite catch up with my mind. And the end result? I get sick and need to take time off to recuperate. And I know I’m not the only one. Lot of women feel the pressures to “have it all”: great relationship, successful career, perfect family life. And as Cher would say in my favorite 90’s movie Clueless, “As if!”
Recently, I wondered how I was going to continue to work full-time, exercise, write new articles and keep up with two of my blogs. Then, I got it! Literally. I got the answer to my prayers in a package that came from Amazon.com that I wasn’t expecting. And the title? The Life Organizer: A Woman’s Guide to a Mindful Year. The book is all about how to obtain your dreams and written for the busy woman. I know I must have ordered it, but I honestly don’t remember doing so. All I know is that I’m grateful to have received the right book at the right time in a Godwink and am SO looking forward to receiving more!
