On September 1st of this year God blessed me with an opportunity that I had on my heart for years. Opening a barber shop/hair salon. Over the summer I was blessed with this opportunity, and much work has gone into it. The investment of time, money, hard work, and working with others has been an enormous challenge that I have had to face. Giving people opportunities only to discovery that they want a hand out. One thing that God has reinforced through this new venture is that many opportunities does present itself, but people are not willing to do the work required or stay dedicated to the task at hand. Last night I got home early from all my daily activities, and as I sat down my cell phone rang from a 800 number that I didn't recognize. The number called, back, and I refused to answer because I was going to take this opportunity to rest. The same number called on a friend of mine, and I thought to myself may I need to see what's going on. I come to find out that someone had broken into the barber shop/hair salon(Kingdom Kutz & Hair Salon). I got dressed went over to discover that someone had through a brick through the front door window trying to steal a 40inch television. I didn't get upset, but realized that anytime you are pressing forward to do some worthy cause to assist others the enemy will always come up against your cause. Over the years I have learned that the opposition is actually telling you that you are moving in the right direction. Why would the enemy even be bring opposition to someone already on his team. Today I was bless to have the repairs done, and the shop looks even better than before. Actually it's even more secure now. What seemed as a terrible situation turned out in my favor as the hand of God moved like He always do. They broke in my place, but was unable to take anything.
