Excited about God!

Somedays I am just so surprised at how excited God makes me feel! I just can't help but know that he has wonderful things in store for us! So many people around me have needs only God can meet and I am just EXCITED when I think about how and what he is gonna do in their lives. I am so thankful for what he is showing me. I asked God today to help me believe for myself as much as I do for others. By this, I mean, it is so easy for us to see that God wants to bless others, but when it comes to ourselves, well, maybe I should speak for myself, but I get in the way of my blessing. I look at myself! Me, myself, and I have nothing to do with my blessing, it is all Jesus and what he did that earns my blessing. I could just thump thump thump myself in the head a hundred thousand times to remind myself! Well, today I am just asking God to reveal to me what that number one thing is that keeps me from seeing myself the way God sees me! I love everyone God has put in my life and my personality is just the kind that wants to give so much of myself that I wear myself out sometimes. God is helping me with that! I just want a front row seat when people receive their blessing, I love that!! I am so thankful for all the blessings I have seen in others lately! Help me see myself in Christ!

  2. O Kel...you ARE such a blessing...and God hasn't just moved mountains in your life, He has given you a new landscape! He loves you...you are so precious! I understand what you are saying here...keeping still is sometimes the hardest thing to do...and accepting blessing for yourself (at least for me)when I want so much for others is quite difficult...you have an abundance of love and compassion....

  3. Kelly, I love this post. And I think you are right that we ALL at times find it easier to believe for the blessings of others. I am with you today, asking God to reveal what keeps me from seeing myself the way that He does. What a beautiful gift this is!
