Brynna I honestly did not know that there would be a paying job out there that I would enjoy, that would not take away my time from my kids and husband, AND it would grow me as a wife, a mom, a Christian…a person.
I’m an introvert. I’m shy, I’m generally socially uncomfortable, my confidence level isn’t the highest. I’m a homebody. I homeschool my kids and care for them 24/7. I communicate best through written words. When I would think about what I would ever do if something happened to Luke and I had to find a way to provide, financially…it basically made me want to throw up because every option other than maybe being a librarian (because I reeeeeally like books) just seemed miserable and a terrible fit for me.
And then God opened the door to where I’m at. I don’t make a ton of money, maybe I will one day but right now it’s just a little supplemental blessing. And it’s not doing something that I would have ever imagined myself doing. But I love it. It’s founded on a principle that is extremely important to me. It’s built by people who share my values and beliefs. The business is a system of encouragement. It’s life giving… physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
Grateful.
I’m doing some business “training” in my free time (listening to the testimonies of others who’ve gone before me) and it’s just blessing me in all aspects of my life. I can’t believe I avoided this (rather, flat out refused it) for so many years. God’s definitely using it.
