"Trading Groups"
We moved back to Springfield after the Osage debacle. Her dad had done to us the same thing Shirley had done years earlier and we were trying to catch our balance as to where and what to do next. We were low on cash, so I took a local delivery job where I made ok money. Still, we were waiting on the Lord to figure the next step.
One morning when I woke up, the Holy Spirit asked me to go to Bozeman but didn’t tell me what for. Lori and I decided it would be a good idea to follow his direction. I drove all the way by myself and stayed with a friend of mine.
The next morning, I woke up and Holy Spirit instructed me to go see a man who had a direct sales group that his wife had built (who had recently passed away) and make him an offer to buy it. I called another guy who knew him, and he set up a meeting. Others had tried to purchase the group before but were not very nice about it, almost trying to bully him into selling it. The Lord had told me the terms to offer, which I presented, and he accepted.
Lori and I were required to drop out of our group and wait six months to take ownership of the new group. It was a much larger group and it really set us up with an abundant long-term income. We decided to move back to Bozeman to wait out the six months.
Upon starting to work the new group, I was introduced to John and Cheri who joined our new group. John was the person I had met 12 years before whom the Lord had told me I would do “business with this man”.
God is so interesting…
