Thoughts... (originally March 2011)

"God loves to bless you.”

Those words have been playing in my heart and soul since they were sent to me in a text from a friend. I can’t get them out! I’ve always known God has blessed me. But it was so nice to be reminded of it and for the words to be, “God loves to bless you.” Like, why do I forget that he loves to bless me? He loves me. God is so good.

I don’t know if those words were spoken about something specifically or in general. God has blessed me in all areas of my life, I know that for sure. The joy I feel in my heart right now is unexplainable.

I’m just pressing in to Him and lifting everything up to Him. All my concerns, anxieties, curious thoughts, etc. —- They belong to Him.

I was reading Psalms 139 a few weeks ago and was moved by it. I’m going to post it in my room so I can read it and be reminded of it everyday. God knows everything about me. I was created in HIS image. He sees me as beautiful and flawless, when I don’t see that at all. He sees potential and big dreams, even when I forget I can dream. He sees me as perfect, when I think I’m just annoying and “who would want to really hang out with me.” He has a perfectly timed plan for my life even though I doubt and wonder what the timing of it all is.

I say these things because they’re on my heart. They’re REAL thoughts. And ones I’m trying to change. Who am I to discredit who God made me to be? I know everyone is harder on themselves but when I KNOW that I’m made in His image, why do I discredit who I am? I am who HE says I am.

I am me. I am Brittany Nichole Omilion. I am a child of God.

I am loved. I am blessed.

And you know what, I’m glad to be me.
