The Morning Journal. Write Down Your Goals, Make them Plain
Habakkuk 2:2
And the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run that readeth it.
When we learn to obey and trust God we can accomplish anything and we can do anything.
God commanded us to write the vision and make it plain. I have written the vision and I share it with you today.
The Vision is Plain
I don’t think I emphasize this enough so let me reiterate it. Female Entrepreneurs have a great way of doing business.
Equipped with a myriad of skills and talents, women know how to do just about everything and anything when it comes to building profitable businesses and highly successful brands.
When I see women creating handmade products on different platforms I am in awe of the uniquely designed items that women offer.
I love to see women using their creativity to change lives, their own as well as for others as well. Furthermore, women are filled with a reservoir of love and compassion that they pour out into whatever is they are writing, creating, designing and hand making because it comes from the heart. There is a real sense of joy that comes from giving when it comes from the heart.
Women are constantly doing new things and coming up with awesome ideas.
I believe in my heart that women entrepreneurs think of others before they think of themselves when it comes to nurturing their crafts. This is how they dream of, envision and then make their goals a reality.
Christian women business owners often offer and provide a host of services and products to enrich and enlighten the paths of their potential clients and customers.
As entrepreneurs we want to introduce ourselves letting the world know that we are here to bring our best work to a hurting world. To be able to lift up and inspire others.
And so it is that I present to you Write the Vision
Let’s get started
Starting your own business can be the very thing to help you to fulfill your life.
When a great opportunity to make money presents itself your small business ideas and goals have the ability to prosper before you launch your business. It is important that you take that vision and make it the reality that it is already yours.
Let’s continue in faith knowing that you are about to change your life.
Write the Vision and Make it Plain came to me the other day (January 22, 2023) as I was laying and resting in my bedroom.
Words flowed into my heart and I began writing as I always do whenever the Holy Spirit speaks to me.

God’s Wise Counsel Has Given Me Hope That My Dreams Would Be My Reality
Acts 15:8 says, God, who knowstheheart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us.
God spoke so that I could deepen my faith in Him – to be able to live a life worthy of my Father.
He spoke so that I could do all the things He was speaking into my heart and not be fearful or concerned about what others would say or think, so that they would see His righteousness and glory shining upon me with hopes that if they needed to be transformed in some way that they would see the light in me assuring them that there is nothing to fear.
God spoke so that I could tell my children what no one ever told me and that’s to trust and serve God. God spoke so that I could use my gifts from Him, equipping me with all the tools necessary to accomplish all the goals He has written upon the table of my heart.
God spoke so That I can clearly Hear Him say all the things that He alone knows that I need to be able to live and lead a fulfilling, rich and plentiful lifestyle that can only be found in His word and based upon His principles.
God spoke to my heart. Is He speaking to you? If so, heed His wise counsel and be thankful.

Be An Honest Entrepreneur and Enjoy Never Ending Success
Today’s entrepreneurial tip: be an honest entrepreneur and be fruitful.
Today is December 7, 2022 and I am thankful for all of the transformational events that have taken place in my life this year.
Learning some of the most priceless lessons in business, I know the importance of showing gratitude.
I love to give God thanks in and for all things. Furthermore, I am giving God all the glory as I continue on my path to greater success.
Beauty and the Face is my baby and I love and nurture her
Some of you may know that I own a small skincare business. Beauty and the Face, Love for the Skin, Luxurious Body Butter is my baby.
With BATF, my mission is to provide women with clean ingredients to help them to achieve their skincare goals. I do this simply by using natural emollients that nourish and nurture skin.
This year I sold more body creams than I did last year. Am I elated? I am elated, excited and so appreciative.
While it hasn’t been easy it has been challenging. With a million and one skin care companies in the universe I put a different twist in my marketing campaigns which is honesty. I am grateful.
You’ll never ever hear me offer my customers a product and tell them that if they don’t accept the offer now, they lose as it will not be coming back until next year. Say what!!! That doesn’t sound right nor does it feel right for me or for my brand.
Instead I choose to make offers that are true and honest. True and honest gets me the sales.
I strive to give my customers and potential customers an opportunity to deal with someone who only wants to give them the very best in skincare without false marketing tactics that are dated and dishonest.
Building a business and brand should be created, designed and built on honesty one thought at a time.
From thought, to dream to vision to concept and then taking the time to execute the plan with faith and brilliance is the meaning of success.
When building your empire, make it unique and powerful. It’s who you are and who you should be.
Small business owners are making names for their brands in the world of big business.
Being a female business owner, I have learned so much from building and managing my business to creating, designing and marketing.
I love the fact that I get to work for myself in the comfort of my home.
Hand whipping all natural body butters to help my customers to achieve their skin care goals brings me immense joy.
When I started Beauty and the Face, Love for the Skin 12 years ago I had no idea that my business would bless so many people.
Here’s the thing; I get to hand craft natural emollients to provide my customers’ skin with great moisture.
As a small business owner I do great things and those great things have helped to make my business profitable.
I have to say that I am deeply and sincerely grateful for all of the life-changing benefits that my small business has brought me. When I started BATF 12 years ago, I had no idea that it would be what it is now which is highly successful. Not because of money, but because I get to give, help and change lives.
My small business is really a big business and I am proud to own Beauty and the Face. It’s truly a gift from God.
Every time I whip up a jar of love, I give thanks to God for the sale and for the skin softening properties in each jar. My customers love my body creams.
Currently, I am in the process of making more phenomenal skin care products for my customers, both women and men.
My goal is to continue on this path of making hand whipped body butters for women everywhere.
I am grateful.
Small Businesses with Great Big Benefits Gives You Power to Be the Best Entrepreneur You Can Be

Okay so you are excited and pumped up and ready to start your own home based business. And you realize that you have no money to start a business. That’s okay, because you don’t need any money to start your empire. All you need is you, your gifts and your great skill set.
You might be limited to a strict budget when you want to start a business, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have any options. It is possible to start a business with very little money, if you have the right combination of skills, work ethic and marketing know-how.
According to Chris Guillebeau, author of The $100 Startup, “To succeed in a business project, especially one you’re excited about, it helps to think carefully about all the skills you have that could be helpful to others and particularly about the combination of those skills.”
Follow these simple guidelines to start a business when you have little to no money. Learn how to make money today.
1. Make something. Yes, making something does take an initial cost in supplies, but oftentimes, these products can be sold for many times over their actual cost. What you decide to make is up to you, but there are several places you can sell your handmade options online:
Abe’s Market deals in natural and organic goods, such as lotions, candles, granola, and more.
Etsy is one of the largest online markets for almost anything homemade, from jewelry to wooden toys for kids.
Bonanza is another growing handmade marketplace, similar to Etsy. According to PC World, it boasts over 10 million visits per month.
eBay is one of the biggest online ecommerce marketplaces in the world, and its streamlined store options, easy checkout through Paypal, and customizable listing options make it a great choice for selling items.
Many business owners sell their products on multiple platforms to get the most exposure possible. It is important, however, to make sure your inventory stays updated on all sites you have a storefront on. If you want to learn about more resources for selling homemade items, check out this Lifehacker post.
2. Resell something. If you don’t want to make anything (or you don’t consider yourself a creative person), many business owners have grown large businesses just be reselling products that have already been made. This can be done through a variety of ways or channels:
Drop shipping: Set up an online store and partner with drop-shipping companies that will do all the order fulfillment for you. Online ecommerce platform Shopify has a great drop shipping guide, and Tim Ferriss does a good job of explaining drop shipping in his well-known book, The Four Hour Work Week.
Thrift stores and garage sales: If you know where to look, you can find items at thrift stores, antique shops, flea markets and garage sales and resell them online or in your local community for more than you purchased them for. One extremely successful example of this is Sophia Amoruso, the founder of Nasty Gal. Amoruso started buying and reselling vintage and unique fashion pieces on eBay, and her company has grown to a net income of $24 million in 2011 with over 200 employees. Her book, #GIRLBOSS, is in inspiring look into how she got started.
3. Sell your services. One way to start a business with little to no startup capital is to sell your services, instead of a physical product. There’s a huge variety of services you can offer, depending on your background and interests.

Some will require advanced degrees, such as accounting, while others require little more than a working knowledge of how it’s done (such as babysitting, lawn mowing or personal assistance).
Because you are selling your services, you will need a branding plan to make sure your name and company gets in front of the people who may need the service. Some places that are free for promoting your services include Fiverr, Craigslist, Elance, Taskrabbit and Skillshare.
It’s also useful to have a website to show examples of your work, list your experience, and blog about your industry to draw visitors. If you want to learn more about branding and online marketing, check out Buffer’s social-media blog, Hubspot’s blog, Content Marketing Institute and CopyPress.
4. Barter to get what you need. Unfortunately, it’s extremely hard to start a business without any type of funds at all. Even creating a freelance-writing business utilizing Elance and a free WordPress or Wix website will still require a computer to work on as well as Internet. However, there are ways to get supplies you need for starting your business without money.
For instance, if you find yourself in need of a used laptop, try to barter for it. Build a new website for a used electronics supplier, or offer babysitting services to your neighbor for their old Macbook.
5. Utilize low-cost services. As mentioned previously, you can use sites such as Fiverr or Elance to advertise your products and services on, but you can also use these platforms to build up your own company. For instance, many designers offer $5 to $25 logo designs (that come with free revisions). Sort by reviews and look at past examples to find a designer or service provider that matches your style.
This is a great way to get branding materials, printed items (Vistaprint and Zazzle are great places to buy personalized items), or other needed items without much cost. And for additional savings, be sure to look for coupon codes on sites such as RetailMeNot before checking out at any online retailer!
Starting a business requires ingenuity and a passion for what you are doing. Once you find yourself doing something you enjoy, you will be more likely to find ways to make it all come together.
