Some of you will probably judge me a little for some thoughts in this post and thats ok. Im fine with that. All my life Ive always know I would make a large amount of money. I never knew how. Never knew why. Its just been a knowing. Not 6 figures even though thats a lot. Well into the 7 figures. I dont know WHY Ive always known this. Not saying it to brag or boast. Its just a knowing I have inside of me since I was a little girl. Im unapologetic for it. Some people view money as evil or think its wrong to make a lot of it. Would love to hear your thoughts! And do you know where these views stem from? Church? Parents? Life experience? Just this year God has really started to speak to my heart about where its going to go. About why hes placed me in positions to be able to earn a large income. Im not one of those people that needs luxury brands or a 7 figure house. Its honestly not about that. (No judging those who DO what or have that either!) For me...I think God wants me to give homes to children that have lost their parents to Christian persecution. Some of you may have read my story in Oct about the day God asked me to give all my money away. Thats the day the story started to unfold for me. (If you didnt read here: tinyurl/lgbqlba) Today I was at church and felt called to give again. Our church does TONS of missions and was trying to figure out which one. Again, my heart is being tugged to Nigeria. Did you know there are more murders for claiming Christian faith there than the rest of the world combined? Children, parents, grandparents, new mothers... its horrible. Ive promised God a minimum of 10% of all of my income. (I give God his before Uncle Sam so thats pre-tax). So as my business grows and God plants ideas in my head for new businesses, I know that they are going to be blessed. Because I feel a calling inside of me to give in big ways. God needs my resources. This gives me courage to go after my big dreams. To never give up. To learn from my mistakes and keep going instead of tossing in the towel and saying this just isnt for me. God put you where you are for a reason. Have. Faith. You cant just praise him on the good days...you have to pray through on the tough days too! My point isnt to to say look at me - im so awesome. Not at ALL. In fact I wouldnt share this for my glory because I cant take credit for anything Ive done other than obey. I share this because its so important to follow those tugs at your heart. Where is God leading you? And on the days where the path seems misty and unclear...keep walking. Have faith he has a plan for you and will use you for good.
