My mind has been buzzing lately of big dreams and taking big steps of faith to see if they’re a part of God’s plan or not. I think slowly but surely is important, small daily habits building up to long term consistency, but also big leaps that let you know if what you’re dreaming of is where you should be going.
My dad always says take the next best step and trust God with the outcome. And to make the crazy dream call and keep following up because you never know when someone might answer. My mom always says I’m sure a smart girl like you can figure it out. She also recently said to change your view of success, that being a good mom is successful.
Since becoming a mom and working much less, I’ve felt my mind wandering in my very limited mental free time to building a beauty company. Making good products that spread the good news. And I’ve been praying for God to help me have discernment in if this is what He wants me to pursue or if it’s a distraction from what’s right in front of me. I want to enjoy being a stay at home mom to the fullest, and all the while there are these dreams bubbling inside my brain at nap time and when the kids go to bed.
This week I’ve been pushing this dream a little father with some big steps of faith. During nap time I’ve reached out to QVC, Nordstrom, HSN, LTK and Sephora in different ways and am curious to see if any will get a response. It feels uncomfortable to reach out knowing the chances of getting a reply are slim. But it also feels kind of reassuring knowing God is a big God and that if it’s a part of His plan for my life that it will happen however He sees fit.
Here’s to big dreams and big steps of faith. And also to the tiny, sweet little steps that fill the majority of my days right now.
