Blue like Jazz by Donald Miller

Page 34, such an amazing story on why we should follow Christ.


I realize, as I am living with a girl temporarily, that I am afraid of people. I'm afraid of doing the wrong thing. Upsetting the balance. Being thought of as rude and inconsiderate. Being a bad Christian. I'm not good with boundaries. I want to use all of her stuff without asking. Something you're NOT supposed to do. I'm drinking her juice and eating her food. Reasons why I hate roommates. It's harder to share stuff. There are all these new rules one has to follow and obey out of consideration. And I'm generally fearful of being considerate.

I'm also afraid of intimacy. I'm afraid of people. Rejection. Hurt. Hurting others. Having too high expectations and being let down! I want to love people and be close to them, but it seems like if you show people kindness, they want more and more until it almost eats you up! Like I said, I'm not good with boundaries. But I suppose I'll have to keep learning!

Transformational Living

It appears that the doors are being blown wide open. It says in the Word of God that what God opens, no man can shut. Praise the Lord. I have a friend, who appears to be being used as God's instrument to transform my life. And vice versa. Through his mentorship, I am meeting people I never EVER would have met on my own. And through my creative vision, his business will be transformed into a new entity, thriving, bursting, exploding, with new life and vitality. Sound good? It should. This can be your life.

I am officially launching my new business. Starts are never perfect. Look at the birth of a baby. Ew. Messy. Same with this one. This baby has been germinating in my brain for TOO LONG. Gestation period, several months, possibly years. But I am ready to birth her. Push her out of the womb, no regrets, no looking back.

I have several ideas, but the one that really grips me is the idea of me being a LIFE TRANSFORMATION COACH. LTC. A dream builder. I am someone who can help you bring what your dreams are into fruition. Uncover the mud and muck to discover why God put you on this beautiful planet. Yes, there will be many bumps along the way. But in 5 years, my goal is to have a thriving business as a life consultant. A life coach. A dream builder. A professional cheerleader. Basically someone you want to have by your side, every step of the way, cheering you to bring YOUR VISION, YOUR LIFE, YOUR DREAM into reality. Corny. Yes. Powerful, yes. Beautiful, YES! POSSIBLE....YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Don't have an official name yet for my business. But I have a few ideas. Fun in the Son. Ahhh. No. Maybe for my party/event planning company. Transformational Living. I love that one. It may be taken though. What about Christian Transformation Network? I like that, but it sounds too clinical. Maybe later on down the road. It's so "official" sounding. I don't want to sound official at this point.

Goals of my company:

Help people reach their goals, discover, and fulfill their dreams.

Get them to yes!

Clarify their lives.

Help people overcome personal roadblocks and hurdles.

As Dr. Susan Jeffers says, Feel the Fear, and Do It Anyway!!!!

(btw, loved her book. She might be one of the reasons I am doing this today.)

This business will encompass every aspect of human life and development, physically, spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, nutritionally, environmentally.

Personal training if you want to lose weight.
Life coaching for a kick in the pants.
Prayer if you need guidance.
Laying on of hands if you need healing.
Grief Counseling for the loss of a loved one.


I am ready to move on with my own life. I am ready to start my own business. I am ready to launch the next phase of my life.

Second company I am starting is a non-profit ministry. Fun In The Son Ministries. Either that or SAFE, South Asian Friends Eternal. But that sounds kinda gay. This is a ministry to enable and empower missionaries who are already in the field to do their work more effectively. I'll also be distributing bibles and tracts in over 30 languages, God willing. We'll be working with sex-workers and orphans. We'll also be a small loans distributor, for missionaries to transform their lives with BAM! Business As Missions.

Praise the Lord! I am excited for life that is to come, especially the NEXT 15 years.

I'm also considering forming a real estate company for land and building acquistion in rural and urban areas. Rural for a Christian retreat center, where people can go to meditate on the LORD. Urban, to attempt to deal with issues of poverty and homelessness.

Finally, my 4th company, which has been germinating the longest, is launching an international environmental company that helps bring clean water and electricity and the gospel to every poor area in the world. No small task, but I do not serve a small GOD. He told me in Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. AND I BELIEVE HIM!

God tests us, and asks us to test Him. First, to see if we are worthy. Second, to basically show the world what He's made of. And what we were made for. We were made to glorify Him, and His Son, Jesus Christ, and God KNOWS, I want to glorify THEM. I want my life to be a living example and proof of how incredibly POWERFUL, GLORIOUS, UNSTOPPABLE, AND INDESTRUCTABLE HE IS!!! Yes, I am feeling pretty darn like all of these things myself! And that's cuz he lives in me, and I in him.

Praise the Lord. Email me if you have any questions. I am sure you have many.
