Stream of Consciousness Sunday: I Am One Blessed Somebody
“I am one blessed somebody”
Those are the words that I often say to myself. Sometimes it’s a gentle reminder. Sometimes it’s a forceful jolt into reality.
My faith plays a huge part in my daily thoughts and actions. I believe in God and am not ashamed or embarrassed to share that fact with someone. I don’t push my faith or beliefs on anyone, but they are a part of who I am. Accept it or don’t accept me fully.
“I am one blessed somebody”
There are days when there seems to be this dark cloud of doom and gloom over me and everything that could go wrong does. Christmas Eve, I totaled my car when a deer ran into me. I laughed when it happened. Seriously. It was at that moment when I had to ask God, “Really???” I felt like I couldn’t take any more – couldn’t lose anything else, couldn’t give anymore of myself. I. Was. Done. Ready to just curl up in a little ball and wait for someone else to be wife, mommy, worker, friend, sister, and whatever other role I was juggling.
“I am one blessed somebody”
In the still of the night after my accident, God whispered in my ear and reminded me that while I was experiencing the loss of my car and sore muscles and ruined presents – I was still here and He was still in control. It was time for me to fully let go and let Him have control. Since then, I’ve stopped worrying and shedding tears over “stuff”. I’m reminded daily that I am one blessed somebody.
