Movement in Life

So I am super excited about this post. I write with some hesitation and butterflies in my stomach, however, there is great anticipation in my heart as well. I have prayed and God answered.

As you know, I am training to be a Parent Coach. Even though I have been in a similar field for over 5 years, I feel like having an official paper backing will help me get and keep clients. I am about to head into my 3rd quarter after taking the last quarter off. I am nervous and excited to power through and complete my training.

I have known that God is going to do something big for my family this year and one of them being my business. I love working with families, new families. I have created a New Parent Class that I will begin teaching at a birthing center. So fabulous! I'd love to teach around at other Birthing Centers, churches, parent groups, etc. I am praying about when to officially begin and if I will have my new business name; Fresh Hope. My darling husband, who keeps me focused and grounded is reminding me to remain patient even though I am BUSTING at the seams to get out there! I really feel God is opening more and more doors. God could change things but I am so excited about what He will do with Fresh Hope. 

Fresh Hope was an answer to prayer. I was really asking God to give me the name and I started hearing the words "hope" and "hopeful" then I read Acts 20:1-2.
"With things back to normal, Paul called the disciples together and encouraged them to keep up the good work in Ephesus. Then, saying his good-byes, he left for Macedonia. Traveling through the country, passing from one gathering to another, he gave constant encouragement, lifting their spirits and charging them with fresh hope." 
It smacked in the face! That is my role with these parents I will serve. To give them constant encouragement, lift their spirits and give them fresh hope to continue to be the best parent they can be! Parenting is so hard, We constantly seek help from God, friends, family, blogs anything. I am another option. :) I was then doing a devotional the other day and I read "Love always hopes" and I had my tagline. I have been playing around with a logo and hopefully Kris will make one for me. :)

I am so blessed by God and what he is doing in my life and how it blesses my family. I totally trust Him and I am learning to remain very patient as He shows me when to open up my business. In the meantime, I am still in school for my master's certificate and I NEED CLIENTS!!! Please, if you know someone or you want to go through the coaching experience let me know. :)
Jeremiah 29:11-13 "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.  You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
