Story In A Gift

02/01/2024

Our message this week. Pick one word. One direction that will keep you fueled when things don't go like you expect them to. One struggle we constantly face is measuring our success with worldly measures.

We are still waiting for that one sale, the one review that will confirm we are on the right track.

But friends, when we are connected with the one who created us, nothing else matters, everything falls in place as it should.

Sanding for a special someone. Preparing for a digital file to sell. Creating sparks joy for both of us.

I love my daughter's sweatshirt with this picture and that they are so willing to help us out whenever we ask them. Nick and I have struggled to complete projects our whole life. So when something is marked done, it feels so good. So far to go, yet one step closer and we wouldn't have gotten here this week without leaning on our Father.

These are the moments that keep me going. I was having a hard day, stuck in comparison. Wondering if spending all this time building a business is doing anything. As this isn't our first time, but nearly a decade of trying new things.

And in the middle of my tears streaming down, our daughter hands me this. I was so amazed wondering how she figured out how to do this. Then, tells me she felt like God told her how to build it for me.

Her creativity was a clear sign that our efforts echo beyond our immediate struggles. It's these small, yet powerful moments that fuel our journey, reminding us that every step, every choice, weaves a story not just for us, but for those who are taking this journey with us

Surround yourself with people that reflect who you want to be. Your surroundings do matter.

No matter your circumstances, struggling or succeeding, we are His. He defines us. Leaving this reminder for the hard and good days.

Calling all small business friends and others who are on a search to use their gifts and talents.

This week I've been pondering on a word that describes the direction we want to go with this page. Nick and I both don't want this page to be full of promoting our products, but rather the journey we are on to make it as a small business. Depression and anxiety have entangled us so much on our path of entrepreneurship. We've felt so alone in this. But I know there are others out there with the same dream who are still searching and wondering when they will land on the thing that takes off.

So we want to build a community where we can encourage one another or if you simply just want to follow our own ups and downs.

"Lekh lekha" is all about movement.

Batya describes it as this, "going inwards or outwards, moving beyond the familiar and comfortable, crossing boundaries and moving into spaces where we can (re)discover our best selves. It is a journey that begins by first pausing to listen and then moving in step with what one hears, thinks, and feels.

This is our movement, searching for a way to bring others together.

So now moving forward, we will still have our shop open, but we won't be promoting our items. We will be showing you the behind-the-scenes & encouraging other visionaries along their journey as well.
