Look For The Positive

As far back as I can remember, I have loved quotes, scriptures and positive words. If you walk around in my house yo
u are certain to come across a book, index card, sticky note or scrap of paper with positive words.
I love saturating my life and surroundings with positive words because I believe they have the power to shift thinking. For me, thinking makes the difference between growing and shrinking. A few days ago I came across the quote on the right.
This quote got me thinking about the business I set about starting two years ago. I put a lot of time and energy into getting this business off the ground. I met with so many business associates that I lost count, developed a strong business plan, set up a financial plan, set up bank accounts, got a business license and found several potential locations.
Then came the pandemic and all the work I’d put in to trying to get this business off the ground very slowly came to a halt. Of course I was bummed about this change in course but I have long understood that while God will say no, sometimes He will say not now because He has different, bigger plans ahead.
Obviously, now is not the time for me to start that particular business. Maybe this is God’s way of saying that this particular business is not the one He had in mind for me. As of right now, I really don’t know the answer but what I do know is that God won’t leave me. What I also know is that I have to keep my heart, my eyes and my ears open for what is next. Giving up is not an option!
A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step…:)
