So if you have read the following updates you know how hard it was to get into nursing school and all the hoops I had to jump through. So in my mind I'm thinking is that really what I was supposed to be doing? God answered that question very quickly and loudly for me. On Sept. 10th I was removed from nursing school. I know, I know, everyone always wants to know what I did wrong. I did nothing wrong, just didn't pass one of my classes. The university I was attending has a very strict policy on failing classes. So I was removed from the nursing program.
I say all of that to say, when God closes one door most generally he opens another. So in my case, throughtout the summer my Mary Kay business just kept creeping back into my life without me wanting or needing it. Little did I know how much I did need it. It's really amazing to me to see how God works in and through things. You see I am a believer and I know that "God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them." You see since I was about 7 years old I have known I have wanted to be a doctor/nurse. I wanted to change peoples lives, make an impact. But God said, wait, I have somehting so much more grand that I am going to use you in. I surely didn't think it would be by vehicle of Mary Kay. I thought I was done with that, I had resigned by Directorship 3 years ago, why in heavens would I want to pursue that again. But then God said to me "I'm not finished with you". That was enough right there. Because I want to please him and be in his will, so we are on the road again.
It was amazing to the first week fully out of school what God actually did with my business. The first time I was a director, I was still pretty timid in talking to women. Oh boy, don't ask God for something you are not ready to take on. Because he will either show you how to deal with it or he will give you the courage to conquer it. Which in my case he did :) And I am ever so thankful for it!
So with all that being said, we are back on the road to Cadillac. One I never, never thought we would be back on. I am happier than I have ever been, because I know that me and my family are following God's will. Will it be hard work? Heck yea!!!! Will I want to give up at times? You bet! But with God on my side all things are possible in his sight.
So December 1st we will be back in DIQ (Director in Qualification) and we will be well on our way to earning that prestige Pink Cadillac. The ultimate goal is NSD(National Sales Director) by 2020..........and we WILL hit it then or before, because that is the dream God has laid on my heart!
