Pour a Cup!

Well, it is really happening!
The Lord has been prompting me for a while now.  I have finally listened.

You see, I have always had a deep down desire to share things with people-lots of people.  I thought I was crazy.  Who would want to listen to me?  What would I tell them?  What if they thought I was "that" crazy person.  Maybe I am, but here it goes.

It goes way back to when I was a little girl.  I have always wanted to be the center of attention.  I spent time on stage.  I would sing.  I performed in pageants-not the Toddlers and Tiaras kind, but the kind that helped pay my way through college.  I always had to be the life of the party.  I dress different.  I have crazy hair.  But it was never enough.  The Lord kept prompting me that there was more.  More to His plan.  

More recently, I have spent a lot of time deciding what I want to be when I grow up.  I love my job with the Scentsy Family more than any other job I have had (and I've had plenty!)  It still isn't what I was created to be and do.  

When I think about my future, I am brought back to an event in my recent past in July of 2011.  I was asked to speak at the National Scentsy Convention in Ft. Worth, Texas.  WHAT AN HONOR!  I had a blast.  I was at home again on the stage only this time I didn't have music to fall back on-only words.  I really feel like I am just like any other good Scentsy consultant.  I don't feel like I have magical words of inspiration or out of this world ideas, but I do know what has worked for me and I was happy to share it.  I am starting to believe that that day in July is what has lead me to my plan.

You see-I want to travel and speak to people.

I have had a few other opportunities to share Direct Sales knowledge with other Scentsy groups around my area.  I have also had an opportunity to share my love of Haiti and orphan care with my Scentsy Family.  Both of these topics spark a fire in me that I cannot explain.

So, here I am sharing my fire with you-the world.  I really don't know how many people will read this and I don't know where my journey will lead, but I am glad you are here for the ride along with me.

I hope to post a few times a week.  I plan to write on several different things I am passionate about and that bring me joy: Scentsy, Haiti, scripture, adoption, orphans, crafting, and who knows what else.

So, pour you a cup 'o joe and hang on tight.....It's gonna be a crazy ride!

I Corinthians 2:9 tells me I cannot even imagine the plans that God has!  It is bigger than I can even imagine.
