My traveling wind...

Listening to Joel Osteen again- he told a story about grasshoppers who can only travel when they jump up and catch the wind. Well, sometimes God sends us that wind- if we don't catch it we can lose our chance to fly.


Ways that I know that God is working in my life and on this business (my wind):

- He guided my husband to the PERFECT spot for our business (even though I didn't want to go).

- He gave us wonderful and understanding people as landlords.

- He sent us someone to help with construction.

- He brought Majid and Wejdan here. I mean who would leave everything and come to live in Montana? Oh ya we did!

-He brought me the perfect partner for this business: experience with cooking, frugile, quick, funny and hardworking.

- He guided my husband to fly to California and drive back with 4 coolers, a bakery table, a sandwich prep table and supplies. He sent us someone who knows how to use a forklift!

- He has sent countless people to surround me with help and advice.

-He sent free counters.

- He sent me my loan- the loan officer said over 20 people applied for a start up loan in 2010 and I am only one of two who got it. Why???

-How else could a school teacher turn into a business owner- God knows my expectations are from Him- not me.
