The Time I… Followed God And It Went Left (Pt. 4)

Before I get into the shenans of 2023, let me scoot back to June 2022. I was in Raleigh, NC for a concert and “something” happened. I didn't know it at the time, but this was going to change a lot of things for me. I was extremely optimistic, very prayerful and SUPER determined to be careful. Basically two months later, everything came crashing down with the biggest disappointment I have faced to this day. You talking about being shook? Baybeee, I was crushed. Initially, I thought God was delivering a promise to me that He made me in 2019.  I spent pretty much the whole time in His face double checking to make sure that I was in His will. I was trying to make sure I wasn’t going ahead of Him, that I was proceeding with caution, and that I was doing what He wanted me to do.

The Time I… Followed God And It Went Left (Pt. 3)

So the story continues... October was ending and I was nervous again. I reached out to some company that I thought could offer monetary assistance with mortgages and other housing needs. I found them through internet research, read up on them, looked up their government designator and decided they were legit. Well, "the only assistance we can offer you at this time is planning assistance. We can plan a budget with you..." Ma'am. That's not what I need. Thank you. What I need is income. “God, what are we doing here?” is what I was thinking as she was telling me all the un-useful things she can help me with. So, that was a dud.  It's finally November. We’re three months into this entrepreneurship journey, and I’m looking like “uh, sir? Is this what you had in mind?” Because at this point, I haven't paid my mortgage or my car in 3 months, and my house don't have a garage for me to hide my car in. It's getting realer by the day.

Heyyyyyyyyyy! What's good?! I'm Vonne! I also answer to Vee! 😁  Welcome to this collection of my thoughts, feelings, lessons I've learned, and whatever other random things I feel led to share. I'm what I call "God's Girl" because He's my favorite, and let me tell it, I'm His favorite too! For a little longer than I care to mention, I have been working on sharing things He has shared with me. I haven't been as diligent as I should have been in the past, but I'm working on being... Better lol. I've done videos that I've posted on YouTube, and written literature that I've posted nowhere that take up space on my hard drives, I've even delivered a sermon or two at church... Lol. I think we're going to settle here for a little while though, and as long as He gives me the words to share, I will do so. I hope you get what you came here for! Love, Vee
