It is amazing when awareness brings us full circle. Recently my friend Kelly Stengem and I got together for a wonderful cup of coffee, sunshine, sharing life stories, collaborating, and nurturing a new friendship. Kelly taught me the phrase "God Winks", which means when we are aware of the blessings, abundance, and success set before us, is when God Winks at us.
I have been re-reading a book this past week by Laurie Beth Jones. Laurie shares her relationship with Jesus and from a young age she asked when He is close and thinking of her to send a lady bug (God Wink).
This is a wow moment for me, as we are all longing for a deep relationship. I cannot think of a better way to know he is Thinking of Me, Is With Me, and Loves Me to ask God to send a Wink.
In deep reflection from the awareness of my conversation with Kelly, personal journal, and rereading Laurie's book, my prayer and personal note I asked for is a snowflake. Some of you may ask how can God send you a snowflake when it is July or when you are speaking in the welcomed heat of the dessert.
I believe and have faith with God anything is possible, so if it is a single snowflake in the heat of summer or other possibilities to show me he is thinking of me, is with me, and loves me. Within one week God has given me several snowflakes and one in particular came from my dear friend Stacy Jennings.
Stacy came by my office and on her hand is a snowflake ring. I giggled, and told her I love her ring. Stacy told me she had just acquired it from a cupcake top for a co-workers party. I proceeded to tell Stacy about my journey and how a snowflake is my God wink. When we are aware of gifts, abundance, and miracles they really do happen even through us. Sharing this story with Stacy also set her back onto a path of awareness of the miracles she sees and experiences everyday.
A few of my God Winks this week:
- SNOW FLAKE BOOK COVER
- STACY JENNINGS RING
- LIGHT SPRINKLING OF FLAKES WHILE WORKING THROUGH A CHALLENGE
- PRIVATE NOTE FROM A FRIEND (WHO HAS NO IDEA ABOUT MY WINK)


Swallowtail butterflies come to mind. I will have to pay attention now.
