My New Adventure... - Mary Bonner

Recently, I mentioned a new adventure on which I would embark. Today, I am announcing what that new adventure is…. drum-roll please….

I have signed up to be a Blessings Unlimited Consultant. If you are not familiar with DaySpring and Blessings Unlimited, then let me introduce you, please!

Blessings Unlimited is a division of DaySpring…that wonderful website with faith based gifts, home decor, jewelry, books, etc. Blessings Unlimited is a direct-selling division of DaySpring.

For we walk by faith, not by sight.

2 Corinthians 5:7

Here is a portion of an e-mail that I sent to friends announcing my connection with Blessings…

“Most of you know that John & I moved here 5 years ago. When we lived in St. Louis I sold real estate and I loved it…but, there was no way I was going to move to a new town where I knew NO ONE and start all over trying to build a real estate business.

Go ahead, let out that breath I know you are holding! I am not writing to tell you that I am going to start selling real estate!!

I went to work part-time at Lafayette and while I enjoy my job there for some time I have felt like something is missing. I missed that sense of helping people, that sense of ministering. I began to pray about what the Lord would have me do, where he might be leading me. One morning during my quiet time I had this incredible sense of being blessed, yet I still felt like something was missing. I ask the Lord to show me what he wanted me to do, how I was supposed to do it and the courage to proceed.

Later that day, I received an e-mail from DaySpring, a company from which I had ordered in the past. The e-mail shared about a division of DaySpring called Blessings Unlimited. A direct selling, home-based business that sells toys, gifts, home decor and much more all with a faith based theme. Talk about hitting me upside the head with a brick!?! After considerable prayer, talking with John and more prayer…I took the leap.

This my friends, is what I am writing to tell you…I decided this was where the Lord wanted me to go…down the Blessings Unlimited Consultant path. So, I took the leap of faith and signed up.”

So my blog friends THAT is my news! Please check out my personal Blessings Unlimited webpage here. It took a lot of faith for me to step out and do this…it is not what I would typically do, but I do believe that it is the Lord leading me.

So, I walk in faith.

What is YOUR news this week?

This is so cool! I never knew this existed! If I was going to sell something I think these products would be right down my line! I just won something form dayspring this week and ordered a couple of things. I'm going to be having a giveaway soon!

I just leafed through the catalog – beautiful treasures in there! Best wishes on your new adventure! (Yeah, and I would happily buy about half the things in there if I didn't think a certain someone would have my head on one of those platters after;)
