God's Business

GOD’S BUSINESS 🙏
A post and almost two weeks ago I wrote about Resting our souls. My own post slapped me right in the face. 
Have I ever really learned to rest my soul? After that post I disconnected from social media and posting for the longest time in 3 years. 
I had a talk with God about this disconnect and why I felt so distraught. I questioned Him about dropping off social media all together and what would happen. Would we still be making Crosses if I didn’t promote on social media to sell them? What if I never design another “new” cross? Could I really just wait to see what happens? 
There are bills to pay, kids to feed, cars to fix, a leaky roof to fix. You guys know the list... it’s why we work. 
But, I felt like I was taking on more than he wanted me to. There was this pressure driven by needing to “sell” crosses instead of just wanting to make them for His Glory. But, could I just be quiet and do nothing? 

Everyday I fought this “resting” my soul in Him. I got up the courage to bluntly ask Him whether I post or not would we still sell crosses? It was quiet for the beginning of those two weeks. I thought that silence was the answer..
Brandi had a couple days off so we decided at the last minute to just go somewhere together. To just be as one going in a direction instead of two being pulled in opposite directions. 

Last Thursday we made that decision to just go. We didn’t tell anyone where we were going. Only the boys knew. The day we were getting ready to go, a cross was ordered. 
Everyday we were gone we received a cross order! I woke up everyday to the question being answered.
In those 5 days 5 crosses were ordered. I did nothing to “sell” those crosses. 
The truth is, I didn’t start this business and can take no credit for it. If you’ve read our story on the website you see this also. This is not my business to mess up! 
Because I can’t mess up something God created. 

On the last day as we walked on the beach, I realized God showed me every piece of a new cross design on that trip also! 
Now, I can’t wait to show y’all on social media what God has designed next!
