Setting Sail for New Oceans



  As I begin 2016 it seems I'm on my own quest to discover new oceans. But its not always easy. The comfort and security of our personal "shore" make it difficult at times to make changes we know are for our good and for our growth. Fear can keep us tied down to things that have had their season, fulfilled their purpose, or taught us our lessons. A ship is secured to a mooring to prevent free movement of the ship on the water. We must be willing to cut those moorings that hold us to the shore and ultimately keep us bound in stagnant waters. 

Because I feel certain that God is doing a new work in my life this year, one of the moorings I  need to cut is my Norwex business.  I'm closing the doors as of January 31st, 2016.

I have loved my time with Norwex. I've learned so much about myself (my strengths and weaknesses as a business owner and team leader), the hazards of chemicals in household products (Norwex is still a great solution and our family will continue to use it personally) and I've met awesome people I will forever call friends.  

May you find the courage to "set sail" in 2016 in whatever direction you feel the Lord leading.

  2. I am sorry to hear that, and excited for you, at the same time! I am so happy that you are listening to the Lord's leading. It's amazing what a common thread that seems to be among a lot of us Norwexers! I will be praying for your journey, and will certainly miss your page!!
