A road trip on a tour bus for two weeks…. OH MY!
When Jerry Niswander, my CEO, suggested we do a 10 city roadtrip to celebrate the #BEMORE movement and the new book we were releasing, I honestly had some serious concerns. Aside from all of my issues with needing quiet space to refresh and my natural tendency to be a diva, I wasn't quite sure it was a good idea.
Then I flashed back to a memory in 2006 when our family relocated to Indiana and Alan had just taken a new job at Monaco Coach. This was years before he accepted my offer to work at ARC full time, and he was pursuing his career in design engineering. We had taken a day tour at the production facilities where he worked and had an opportunity to walk through some of the luxury RVs he was designing the electrical units for. I remember thinking, "HOW on earth do people live on these $200,000 house on wheels?" and something came out of my mouth that would prove to be a very powerful prophetic statement many years later. I said, as I walked through the halls of one very pretty RV, "One day I want to tour the United States and impact people with all God has given me in one of these."
Well here we are!
We arrived late last night into the Nashville airport (after a crisis at the airport that could have ended in a canceled flight if God didn't step in like He always does!) and spent the night in a local hotel. This morning we headed out to our secret location where my brand new 2014 tour bus was waiting! She is a beauty! I still don't have a name for her but I'm sure it will come to me as we begin to roll down the road. When we were asked what any of my favorite things were, so they could customize my travels, a Tempurpedic bed was my first request. I'm so excited that they made that happen!! A queen sized bed just like the one we have at home in my back suite.
Living with some of my favorite people in the whole world for two weeks as we travel more miles than I've ever driven in my enitre life is surely a new experience! To say I've been excited, nervous, exhilirated, terrified, filled with eagerness and nervous is an understatement. This IS where the perfect will of GOD shows up.
If you're fighting and wrestling for things to happen how YOU think they should go, let me encourage you today. Right where your comfort zone ends and pressure begins, where dreams are birthed and dead end living dies is where the #BEMORE life happens
I can't wait to see more than 12,000 people who have registered througout our 10 locations! I'll be doing behind the scenes videos and more as we get things rolling. Be SURE to tune into my Facebook page for the fun!
See you soon Nashville, Charlotte, Atlanta, Orlando, Destin, Baton Rouge, Austin, Dallas, Oklahoma and Kansas City! And for the rest of you… I have a surprise coming very soon that I'll announce this weekend! Heehee I think you'll be SO surprised and super excited!
With love,
