Welcome to The Marthaverse, the Land of Goodness

For years, I searched the world wide webs for help. It looked like "How to Make Money from Home without Selling." "How to Start a Ministry," "How to Blog,," "How to build income in YL," etc.

I read soooo many blogs, articles and watched tons and tons of free You Tubes and Webinars from everyone about everything. I am now well educated in the Free-For-You World. Yet, wasn't getting any forward movement because nothing felt good to me or connected all the dots. I really hated feeling like I was selling people I only wanted to minister to.....

When the need to generate income became a thing for us, I found myself having to amp myself up just to put myself online knowing I was selling a thing in order to generate income. Of course, it was make up, travel, coffee, oils that I liked, but it wan't me in the ministry space I longed to be. I did my best to offer encouragements in the time, but it just wasn't fitting together like I wished it would. I didn't want to be the Product Promo Girl. 

All I want to do is Promo The Heart of JESUS!!!!

Then, I found Martha. She is a heart-centered Business Strategist, a Christian woman who loves serving people with heart before dollars! This aligns perfectly with my heart! You're gonna LOVE her too!!

I have learned how to share my heart, and more importantly, God's heart, in a way that feels soooooo good, while generating the income necessary to sustain the ministry and support my family, without having to feel like I am trying to sell things. I will share, but I am not about selling things! I get to lead with my heart first, while offering supporting resources. FINALLY!!!! Like Paul with his tents and a Proverbs 31 Woman who reverently fears the Lord as she serves her family and others,  I am able to worship as I create and serve, not sell! 

Eventhough I love the products and services I either create or am an affiliate for, I don't want to have to do a hard sell! I am a Giver by Nature, so receiving is something I am working on, so asking for money, even if it is warranted like an exchange for a purchase of something I created or share, is hard for me. 

If I was a trazillionaire, I would give away everything for free!! 

Giving is my heart language. 

It's not often you follow someone online and have the chance to also meet them at an event, But when you do, and they are the same offline as they are online, WOW what a familiar joy! I have had the absolute honor and joy to meet Martha in person and WOW, she is just as vibrant and authentic in serving people online as in person! I prayed for a Mentor to help me and God sent her to me! 

When people ask me how did I learn to do all the things, the biggest catalyst, the All in One place, has been through the Marthaverse. Martha is an intuitive Business Strategist who can help you get started and set up quickly with your business, even if it's a ministry, just like me! I did all the free things online for years and years....until I invested in me January 2021 with Martha's HBR course.

I am absolutely sharing my referral links because I know you will find the help you need and I am NOT the one to teach it! If you have any questions, message my Encouragement Page on Facebook or send me an email : livingwherefaithis@yahoo.com

Michele"For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named that according to the riches of His glory He may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith--that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."
Ephesians 3:14-21 ESV

A Little About My Heart

 
Born and raised in the church, a Christ Follower, Kingdom Encourager, Wife, Mama, and an Overcomer! GLORY TO GOD!!

I lived most of my life fearful, anxious, and insecure.. I found myself always hiding but serving, striving for perfection in my less-thanness, as a way to earn my worth to self, God and others, sacrificing in the name of serving, hospitality and humility...putting others needs before my own from a place of hiding in my lack, and trying to earn value rather than serving in the space of grace, confident faith and overflowing love. 

Never attaining, only to lead a life of more insecurity, overwhelm, anxiety, and panic, screaming to break free from this bondage, to be that actual strong, courageous Christian Woman everyone else seemed to be, but me. 

BUT GOD.

In 2009, Where Faith Is was born as a blog, learning my voice behind the safety of a keyboard, building courage to speak my truth behind the screen...and here all these years later, Little by little, God is expanding my heart boundaries as He reveals more of His to me. I am so excited to share so freely! 

I especially love being an encourager to other encouragers in the faith who know they are called to encourage yet they themselves struggle with their value and ability. Isn't that how the enemy works? He tries to disqualify us in the same area we are called to shine! What an irony!  

I believe if more people let go of fear and insecurity, surrendered to grace and BELIEVED their value, their spark for life will return to a roaring fire that lights up wet wood! 

When women choose to walk courageous and strong in body, mind and spirit...they step out of the boat and walk on water as Peter did, part the waters like Moses and set more people FREE in His name through their Divine purpose to the Glory of GOD! We are each a Light House of Strength on the shorelines of Grace . 

Friend, you may not believe it, but you are meant for more than eat/sleep/work/repeat. You are also equipped with good works to serve and bless the Kingdom Body, and the world with His Love, through YOU! You've got to surrender your fear and let Him lead you.

You are more able than you think you are and most likely, the thing you feel is the weakest part of you is the strongest thing about you!

If you are an introvert too and want to be a part of our newly launching online community, we are here for you!! Let's Connect! It's an honor to encourage the Encouragers.

I am H.I.S. (Heart In Surrender & Service).

Hugs & Blessings, 
Michele

"So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 
Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." Philippians 2:1-4
