Fear Not For I Am With Thee!

It's time, I can no longer postpone this. I think it's maybe the reason why I never tried making a business out of this sooner.  Yes the want was there, but as soon as I looked at all the paperwork and legalities I set off running! It can be a very scary process, at least for me it was.  So I've had the LLC application filled and printed for months but fear kept me from mailing them in.  I don't know why, seems silly, but I guess this time it's, go BIG or go home  and that's the scary part.  


As I check the paperwork, which is only really three pages, for the hundredth time for any mistakes' the feeling starts.  I take a deep breath, fold the sheets and start writing the address on the envelope. My heart is racing and I'm having second thoughts... 
"What if I can't do this?" ...
" Can we afford this right now?" ...
"Will I make enough profit to pay the yearly charges that come with owning an LLC?"

I place my application and check in the envelope and seal it.  As I stare down at it, still terrified this might be a mistake I whisper "In the name of Jesus".  Almost immediately the fear subsides.  I am learning that in order for my dream to come true I need to trust in HIM.  It is very difficult to let go of our problems sometimes and just give them over to God, trust me I struggle daily with it but it's the only way.  We cannot do it alone, if we try, we will fail. In order to walk in his path and receive His blessings we need to learn to just let go and let him take control. 




So now I wait for my Certificate of Status to go on to the next step which will be registering with the IRS for an EIN.  I am glad I finally took that step, I know it won't be easy but I can rest upon HIM and know it will be okay!
