Joining Blessings

Have you ever wanted to do something but didn't have the extra income to do it?  That was me several months ago.  I wanted to support foreign missions more financially, but didn't really know how I could possibly find a part time job to work with my families schedule.  I began to pray and ask God to guide me and help open my eyes to His plan for me and my family.  My husband works long hours and he also commutes.  We don't have any family where we live, so if I got a job, I would have to pay for a sitter.  I looked at our family budget and realized that there wasn't much fat to trim and if I wanted to give more, I would have to start my own business from home.  Do you know how many direct sales businesses there are out there?  Too many for me to count!  Again, I prayed for God to lead me in the right direction and show me what would please Him.  My friend (and sponsor) had just started her Blessings Unlimited business and I was curious about the products and the story behind the company.  The more I researched and prayed, the more obvious it became that I could have a business as well as a ministry with Blessings Unlimited! 

Now, when I hear people say that they just don't have the money to support a worthy cause or to adopt a child, I am compelled to tell them my story and pray for them!  God will give you a way to give more, do more and serve Him more, if you just allow Him to BLESS you!

Healthy Blessings

I made a resolution around New Years to become a healthier person, and I'm doing pretty well so far.  I've dropped about 21 pounds and I'm running about 2 miles almost every day.  My "aha" moment came when God spoke to me about how I was stewarding this body.  What He told me is that because I gave my life to Jesus, everything in my life belongs to Him (including this body)!  I just wasn't doing a good job staying healthy so I could do His Kingdom work, and I knew I needed a change.  I wanted to share with you that it has been so much easier to choose what is GOOD when it is for the Glory of Christ, and not for my own agenda!  My ultimate goals include being healthy enough to participate in many, many mission trips in the years to come, as well as continuing to raise funds for foreign missions through my Blessings Unlimited business.

Please pray for me as I continue on my journey to good health!
