FEAR

But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid. Just have faith.”Mark 5:36 NLT

 FEAR:  an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat.

 Do not tremble; do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim my purposes for you long ago? You are my witnesses—is there any other God? No! There is no other Rock—not one! Isaiah 44:8 NLT

 You know, times right now are tough and uncertain.  This is not new news!!!  You can't avoid it, you can't ignore it.  Its EVERYWHERE you look--in the newspapers, on TV, magazine articles, ETC.  People are losing their jobs, their homes, everything.  And why?  Because its LIFE!  The Bible says that our lives will not be easy breezy and crystal clear all of the time.  But His word also says that we are not to be afraid!!! We are to NOT BE FEARFUL!!  We are to TRUST in our amazing Father God!

 Psalm 9:10

Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.

 Psalm 13:5

But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

 Psalm 20:7

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

 Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

Those are just a few of my favorite reminders about trusting the fact that my God has plans for my life.  I may not like or understand circumstances and trials and storms that I encounter, BUT, I know full well that HE is in total control of my life and I must TRUST HIM!  

Just about 9 months ago, I took a big leap of faith.  I was nervous as heck.  I was AFRAID!  In my head I struggled with 'Should I?  Should we?'  "What if it doesn't work?"  "What will everyone think of me?"  Guess what????????  Those words were totally ignored almost immediately, as they came into my head.  I never said "NO!!!!!"  Why?  Because I wanted MORE for my family.  I wanted to be able to help my family out any way possible.  I knew I felt horrible all of the time and I knew that I'd already nixed some of my hours I'd been working already.  I knew that I had to do something to gain back that little bit of income that I had forgone.  I had NO INTENTION of EVER trying any kind of MLM!  Kyle has been there done that and I told him "NO MORE!! NEVER AGAIN!!!"    

All it took was seeing just 1 video, of REAL people, just like me!!!  Those people took the same leap that I took.  I watched it, and said, "If they can do it, why can't I?"  You know what?  I CAN!!

And, I AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!    

I took a leap of faith and made the decision to do something I said I would NEVER DO!  You know there's a phrase.."never say never"  Its true!!!    You will not know what can happen or what will happen unless you stop saying NO!  If you don't stop being afraid, you will not know what can happen!  You can't sit around your whole life and listen to other people tell you that you can't do it or that it won't work or that you will not succeed---that's letting FEAR take over!!! 

When I took that leap of faith, I said, "Ok, Lord, I'm going for it.  You are in control of all of this.  If its to be, its to be.  If its not, close the door."  And with that, I made the decision to step into the world of MLM.  This was not my husbands choice. I didn't ask him if I could do it--I didn't need to because he could see the excitement in my face and hear it in my voice and he could see what was physically happening to me.   It didn't take but about 3 weeks and he was ready to jump in with both feet and follow me on this journey. 
And I'll be totally upfront and honest.  I had people try to steer me the other way.  "Don't do that, you'll be sorry!!"  "Don't get sucked into that, its a waste of time and money."  "You do not want to get started in something like this...."   

I made the CHOICE to ignore all the DOUBTS that were thrown my way.  I have heard some really hurtful things in the last 9 months.  I have cried a lot of tears because of those hurtful words and doubts that were thrown my way.  And guess what?  I'm still here.  And I don't intend to go anywhere.  It has been an amazing 9 months with an amazing product and an even more amazing company--who honors the Lord in everything and gives Him the Glory in everything.  That in itself speaks volumes to me.  To see our company Presidents/CEO's pray with their consultants, personally call them and congratulate them for achieving their goals, etc--its a blessing to be a part of all of it.  God has blessed us over the last several months and we know that He will continue to watch over us and bless us even more.  

Fear--Let it go!!!!!!!  Trust in the Lord to take care of you.   Trust that He will provide for you and your family in these uncertain times.  Don't let others feed the fears you may have.  How will you know what blessings you could have coming your way, if you do not TRUST God to take control?  I was there.  And as I said, I have my own trials and storms, but I refuse to let fear over come and I have chosen to trust that the Lord will take care of my family and provide for us.
