I've always wanted to be a SAHM . Well 2008 comes and I have this precious 9 pounder to love. There were different projects in our favor but they just haven't came through yet. I had support from my original supervisor that I could work from home when my baby was born but that failed through when my new supervisor came along. I remember coming home and balling my eyes out to the Lord. I couldn't worship or praise Jesus on my own so I turned on some music. I received comfort in Him that night but as many of us know we always have to lean on the Lord every step of the way.I began to pull on the Lord. I was not letting Him go until He blessed me like Jacob in Genesis. As I was praying to search for my miracle I began to get more intimate with God. Instead of searching for my breakthrough I started searching for Jesus more and more.Have you ever looked for something particular but received a greater blessing than what you were looking for?That was me. I’ve been in the Word, been in His presence, searched for God about something whether it be family, future, finances, relationships, or just Him. But how many of you know God is the Alpha and Omega? He’s the beginning and the end? He’s so awesome you can’t contain Him. So we will always learn who He is.As I was enjoying God and interceding/praying for others the beauty supply idea came to me again. I talked to my mother about it and she encouraged me to get connected with a guy in Indy who was doing what I wanted to do. So I did and he informed me with how much he started with and what not. And I shared with my mother and husband I want to start with this certain amount of money to begin my business.Months have passed and I’m still enjoying who God is. He’s the author and finisher of my faith. Thank God I’m not able to write my own faith b/c I would’ve been stuck on the first letter. LolWell my Hubby and I entered the church one day for service and a precious saint comes to me and says, Can I talk to you for a moment? I said sure. She said this person wanted to be anonymous but the Lord put it on their heart to give you a certain amount of money. Now this is serious money so you hold on to it. My heart just melted. My eyes swelled up, I was speechless. My thought was God you heard me but you didn’t have to but you did. And not only you heard me but you responded. She just looked at me and said okay this is confirmation to you. I just nodded my head b/c I couldn’t say anything.When I opened that envelope it was the exact amount I told my mother & husband I would need to start my business!Jesus is Real! He is alive and well and if you just open your heart to Him, He will fulfill it! I am a witness of His hand touching me.
