Following The Half A Million Dollar Journey 12/16/14

Hi friends! I am so excited to share with you all the things that God is doing in this journey to raising a half a million dollars for Bridget's Dream! This week my focus was to make sure the battle field in my mind was subdued with God's truth and word. I know that this battle is more against myself and my fears of faliure and defeat than anything else. I know God already prepared the good works that he had in mind for me to accomplish. I believe that when he knit us all in our mother's womb, he KNEW why he was making us. The purpose we have has been predestined and it conincides with the talents and abilities God has given us. This life is hard. We all go through some level of trauma, abuse, loss, fear, abandonment, something tries to hold us back from being who we were meant to be. But God has won the battle in the end. God is just and kind and merciful and his love endures forever. Eventhough fear pulls us back into the mud to keep us from being the full realization of ourselves, God is wating for anyone to call his name for help. He is willing and able to not just help but to make us conquerours. This week my focus has been on praying that God would help me belive him over the doubts and fears in my head that I've believed for way too long. BELIEVE GOD MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS LIFE. That has been my mantra! (IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE FIRST POST OF THE JOURNEY SEE IT HERE)

The things that I have done this week to make sure that I am doing something every day for the goal to find a company to use me for their advertising are as follows; I e-mailed back Covergirl because they gave me a rejection e-mail saying they couldn't donate to the cause. I emailed a pretty confident e-mail saying I was willing to work hard if they changed their mind. I e-mailed YSL back. Marc Jacobs. Nordstom and The Ellen show. I called Nordstrom back with courage from the Holy Spirit and asked if I could speak to them more about the situation, even though they had already denied the proposal. They ended up sending me to someone that LIKED my idea!! We are waiting for the Holiday Season to be over to revisit since it's a crazy time of year. I am supper excited at this possibility! I mailed out big yellow envelopes with my pictures and my letter to Tiffany &  Co. , Piaget, Louis Vuitton since they have asked for a more fomal proposal. And just to be completely hopeful that God can do anything I sent one to the fan mail address for Steven Spielberg. l mailed personal notes to the kind people that have actually taken their time to have correspondance with me, I have appreciated it so much.  I called Sharif Jewler and the nice woman said she'd ask the owner. I called and emailed someone at Kate Spade. The end. 

That's it for now but my heart is FULL of hopeful antisipation to see how God is going to pull this off. This is all Him and I am just litteraly honored that he is wanting to use this broken little Mexican girl who was so scared of herself and everything else in this

world just a year ago. If God can use this life, he can use anyone. I am so undeserving and yet He continues to surprise me with the love and conpassion His splendor imprints in my soul. 

Thank you for your prayers and belief in this. I appreciate you going on this journey with me. We are all a piece of the puzzle. Stay tuned for an update next week! 

Stay blessed and stay saucy
