WOW!

My life has changed a lot since my last blog. To many to even talk about.
I am on a new adventure in my life. I am following in Sarahs in my daughters footsteps and have become a Close To My Heart (CTMH) Independent Consultant. Sarah became a consultant, and is very good at it. This is a really big deal for me.
I have always been outgoing, but sitting in a group and talking and standing in front of them and talking, well lets just say it has never been my thing. Can you say nervous, sweating, dizzy?
I really feel God has been preparing me for something, as far as speaking in front of people is concerned. Is it CTMH? That's a good question. I am not sure if that is it, but I am sure it is a beginning. It started first with the Small Group we began in our home. JB always appears to be confident at speaking in front of people, but he has turned some of the speaking in front of me.
We have had the group for well over a year and I have begun to feel capable of speaking with confidence in front of them. I will say our group when we first came together were strangers, basically and now they are family, and I LOVE EACH OF THEM, so that makes it easy.
Secondly, I have been attending Weight Watchers, and over the 9 months I have been going I have begun to open up to women I don't know, and I am comfortable speaking in front of them.
So, here I am on this journey, all of which I think God is leading me through. Do I know what the purpose is, not yet, but I know I will enjoy the scenery on the road to my future.
Blessings to All!
BTW if you get the opportunity read our small group mission statement (it's really the name of our group) it tells our story.
