The It Works Family

This past year I’ve had so many moments where I have felt the longing to really serve The Lord; to see what HE desires for me, and from me, at this specific season of life.  One of the most important things I have on my personal dream board is to be sure that “the dash of my life” (the time between my life and death) be clearly represented by how I lived my life.  When my time on this earth is gone I long to be known as a woman of the Lord, one who loved Him with all her heart, soul, mind, and strength.  This certainly has not always been the case.  This did not happen until I began “personally knowing” who God is.  What were His promises to me?  Who was this God I was being so drawn to? I had to dedicate some time and be very deliberate about getting to know my Lord.  I know many of you share this same passion and goal.
 


It is the same with you and It Works Global! You have become a part of our family.  It Works Global is not just another direct selling company; it is a way of life! It Works empowers anyone to change their life, the lives of others, and to literally change generations to come. If this is what you want for your life, you must first get to know It Works Global.  Who are we?  What is the driving force behind us?  What makes us different from other companies out there?  Yes, our tag line is “Look Younger, Live Longer” but there is so much more depth to whom we are and what the It Works Way is all about.

For years I had the “status quo” relationship with God; I began to sit down “with” Him, read about Him in His word (which is alive and active). I just sat still and allowed Him to show me He Is God and  I began praying daily and having in depth conversations with Him about everything, all day long. When I dug in and studied “this One and Only God” and understood what that meant, I did not know what I really had, but now it is what moves me and motivates me.

He is my life; God is in me and with me 24/7!
 
 


So it is with the gift of the It Works Opportunity that the Lord has given you.  I have personally been a part of a team that prayed for you before you joined, asking God to help you recognize that this is the very opportunity you have prayed for. We also ask the Lord to help you share it with anyone He puts in your path, for we are convinced they too have been praying for a solution to what their needs are; where to find a job, where to find that special something to pour their personal passions into, how to find a way to spend more time together as a family, how to fund college, how to afford a vacation or be able to generously give to so many in need. 

Over the past couple of months, It Work’s Global has added thousands of new Distributors, all of them a member of the It Works Family. Each one needs to learn what it is that they have their hands on.  It will take more than the investment of the $99.00 spent to be successful.  It will take a desire and a commitment to get personally acquainted with your new It Works Family. As I shared above, head knowledge and heart knowledge are two very different things, with two very different results.   First, go through the Training Academy, attend local trainings, go through the Play Book, be on all the Corporate Calls (Especially the Sunday Night Call!). Be a product of the product.  Share your testimony or someone else’s until you have one of your own.  Come down to a Green Carpet Day, walk through your corporate office, meet your CEO, Mark Pentecost and your Director of Marketing, Pam Sowder, and the other members of your corporate team.
 
 

You are in the right place at the right time.  There is great truth in the following verse:

"All the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:16b

It is true and real, everyday has a purpose, so I close with one question;

Today is the first day of the rest of your life, isn’t it?

Blessings, Cindy Pentecost

This phrase really sticks out to me, especially when tied into Psalm 129 at the end.

"I have personally been a part of a team that prayed for you before you joined, asking God to help you recognize that this is the very opportunity you have prayed for."

Psalm 129:16b: "All the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be"

Thank you for your prayers over our businesses! As someone out in the field I can say with absolute certainly God is using those prayers to create an It Works Family with a foundation on his love!

Wow Cindy, Thank you so much for this post. I want to thank you and Mark so much for coming to North Carolina this past weekend. I was just so touched by your love for God and the It Works family. Thank you again for taking time to pray with me Saturday evening. When I was driving home Saturday evening the song by Kutlass, "What Faith Can Do" came on the radio and really spoke to me. Then on Sunday morning my minister spoke about "Seeking His Face" which was just more of what you and I had talked about. May God richly bless you and Mark and I look forward to seeing you at Green Carpet!
