What is a Christian in Business?

Knowing that you were created for a purpose. Desiring the will of God and holding fast to this journey is the beginning of a beautiful life! Seeking God for the answers, reading the scripture and meditating on it daily while the Holy Spirit gives you revelation understanding is what will help you understand exactly what you are doing within that purpose.

Once we acknowledge that our lives our not our own, we were paid for with a price! Jesus’ blood was shared for each and everyone of us! Our purpose is to glorify God in EVERYTHING that we do… there is so much peace in knowing that when we surrender completely… dying daily to our own selfish desires, that God will perform His good and perfect will for our lives.

Becoming a Christian in business, means to “commit yourself” to God. Commit your works unto the Lord so that He can establish your footsteps. It’s really quite simple because at that point, He knows that you trust Him therefore He can trust you to do what He’s called you to do for such a time as this.

Of course there will be trials and persecution but Jesus already told us that, amen? For me knowing that my persecution is because I chose Him, makes my joy ever so wonderful! The joy of the Lord is my strength! It surely isn’t an easy journey but like Joseph, waiting on the Lord, going through the trials but believing all the while… through the storms of persecution, God led him to the palace!

I encourage you to write daily about your journey. Conversate with God on a daily basis. Allow the Holy Spirit to minister to you but, you must have an ear to hear and the desire to truly fulfill your originally designed purpose, molded by the hands of our heavenly Father.

Remember, HE is the potter, we are the clay!

Im going to be leaving My Job....

After a long time of praying and waiting, the right time has come for me to quit working at Baldwins Automotive. It has been a very good job, and God definately put us in the right place at the right time. Now he has led us to persue our Advantage Conferences business, and Green Cylinder Heads on a full time basis. God has also shown me some areas of ministry that I will be able to do with a more flexible schedule, and more time.
Our life over the past year has been a whirlwind, but I can honestly say that Ive grown in Christ more this year than in my entire life. My understanding of who God is, how He works, and what faith is really all about has really changed.
Please pray for us, it is very exciting, and we are boldly walking forward in Christ.
