Hi!
Without taking into account the issue of establishing a stone by God, which he won't be able to pick up, how do you think, may be something in this world, what can God never see?
 
He sees everything
 
can "he" see "himself"?
 
From what my beliefs are is yes
 
He can't see your sin after you confess and are forgiven...because it is as far as the east from the west and cast into the sea of forgetfulness. Other than that God sees everything...what you feel, what you think, what you do, your past, present, and future.
 
God can see your sin if He wants to, he CHOOSES to no longer remember it once it is forgiven. We serve a merciful, loving God.
 
say a little prayer....for me!!:pray::pray:

I posted here that my Dad has been very ill (things have inproved somewhat on that front) and I had to put my business on the back burner for a short time...glad I work with a company that I can do that with, because if I had a "real job" I would be over the edge right now!

BUT....

I have my first show in 5 weeks tomorrow and I am nervous! Any ideas on how I can really focus on bookings for May? Talk about recruiting?? This is a very PC savvy group and I want something a little new and fun for them!

TIA!
 
Good luck!! I bet you'll be fine once you get going with your show. It's like riding a bike.....it'll all come back to you. In terms of getting bookings for May, if you have any of the pink products, bring them and show them at the end of the show. I definitely push May and encourage anyone who has been thinking about EVER hosting a show or if they haven't hosted one in a while to definitely consider May because HWC has a much more special meaning associated with it. Especially if they know someone who has been affected by breast cancer. And I truly feel that attendance is better in May because of this, so I try to point that out.

Let us know how it goes!! You'll do great!!:)
 
Share with them what you told us. They will be incredibly supportive.

I was so nervous when I had my first cooking show here (it'd been well over two months since I'd done a live show). My group was wonderful to me when I admited I was a little nervous.

You can plug PC by sharing how much the flexibility of this business meant to you while focusing on your dad and his illness. I honestly believe the best recruiting is simply saying that you have no regrets and are comfortable sincerely recommending the business.

I love Becky's comments regarding bookings for May.

GOOD LUCK MEG. We're cheering you on!
 
I think the Kris and Becky gave perfect advice...so I am just gonna say "Yeah! What they said!" We're rootin' for ya Meg!
 
Good luck Meg. Let us know how it goes!
 
Good Luck Meg! Our prayers are with you!

You'll be fine. Be positive but tell them briefly why you have stepped back in your business and then have fun.
 
things went well. sales were OK, but I got 2 bookings for May! I need to call a few of the guests to talk about the business~no one asked about it but few folks looked like they wanted to but not in front of their friends. we had a great time and now I am ready for next week (2 more shows!)

Thanks for all of the support!
