34. Amy Bomar | How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.

My name is Amy Bomar and I wear many hats, I get to be a mom to three beautiful inspiring young ladies, I am a wife to a hardworking man, and I work from home for my family business. I have been a youth pastor and a teacher, which I look forward to getting back to after this journey I am on now.  All of these that I have mentioned I feel so blessed that God chose me to be a part of pour into my family and the lives of others. In this journey, or season, I am always looking for an opportunity to be a blessing to those around me. When you are looking for opportunities to be a blessing to others, you don’t give your mind time to be sad. I hope that this turns into more opportunities for me to share my story. I truly love helping people and lifting people up and I want everyone to know the goodness of God! This journey will not just be growth in me and my family but growth to be shared far and wide. Thank you so much for this opportunity!
