Between Chapters

I've never done anything like this. It's completely atypical of me. Miss Plan-Every-Detail-Before-Acting, Count-the-Cost, Measure-the-Distance has really done it this time. I quit my job (in the middle of what's being called a RECESSION) with not much of a safety net, 2 months salary to be exact. I, yes, I left the comforts of economic stability in order to pursue my dreams. (Snicker here!) Sounds ridiculous, I know. Especially for a girl who struggled for years to find employment that would at least allow me to pay those pesky student loans, keep the oil changed in my car, and grab an occasional burrito.

I've been running a mentorship organization for girls, also an aspiring non-profit, in my negligible spare time. I've known since I was 18 that my work with this organization would eventually be my full-time gig. I just thought my departure from working for someone else to self-employment would be far less scary. I thought I'd have tons stashed away in a nice little nest egg and a team of investors before I took the GIANT leap. Nope. It had to happen now-God's orders.

Over the next couple of months I'll be tracking my progress as a budding entrepreneur/dare devil. I can't see my way clearly, but I know God will pull me through. Keep tuning in as I pen my adventure. We're sure to learn a lot.

Did I mention that I'm in the process of trying to buy a house or that I leave on a 9 day missions trip to The Gambia on August 1st (I still need to raise $3200, by the way.)?

My New Thing

I've been waiting for it...
Looking for it...
Hoping for it...
Praying for it...

The New Thing.
The New Life.

It's here.
Inside.

Sure to manifest,
With faith and action's collide.

I'm ready...I think.
It's scary, but here.

I feel change in me.
The same I won't be.

I want it more than ever...
Delay pursuit never...

I know He will deliver...

My New Thing.
