determination



 
      If you are not completely determinded to succeed in your home business, you will not see it through to completion. While beginning our Soap Business many road blocks came along and made me question my intentions, or my determination. Because my vision came from the Lord and He was leading in it, I had a comfort zone that others may not experience. I knew that what I had done each day was a success. I had been faithful to what I had been called to do. This meant that I was growing in my faith and also in my earnestness to obey the Lord. This was a success that I was grateful for.
     As Christians we are called to be faithful, not always seeing the end result but knowing that our faithfulness was the character trait with the most value.
     Although financial success was the first goal, I was quickly challenged in that with just the amount of leading the Lord was doing. What I had begun to help my husband, turned out to be what helped me the most. Seeing the Lord leading in each area turned out to be the biggest blessing of starting a home business. 
    Financial success is important especially in our tough economy but spritual growth is by far the biggest investment we can do for our family and ourselves.




     Please feel free to message me or write to me for any help I can offer you. If you are considering a home business, I just want to encourage you to step out in faith! And to see the Lord work!
God bless you all,
 Love Karen

This series ROCKS :) :) I"m praying, even now, that God would lead me in the right direction. I'm convinced more than ever that this is the way to go for me...with all that it entails, unless God closes that door. However, right now, it's wide open for me. When I think of questions, I'll make sure to ask you!!!

Happy New Year to you and your family. Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)
