Who needs prayer today? That's pretty obvious. Everybody does. Our effort however is specifically designed to target small business owners. For years now I have sensed a burden to keep small business owners in prayer. The grind is so much different for business owners than it is for employees. Nothing against employees. Please understand I not only pastor a church but I also have owned businesses in the past and presently operate one. There's a pressure that doesn't compare to when I was an employee.
The exciting thing about being in business for my self has been being able to determine my own schedule and enjoy my family and other things on my own terms. You're probably no doubt in business for similar reasons.
As we get going with the Small Biz Prayer Network Meetup in Chino, I want to let each of you know that my prayer is for your personal and business success. I pray that the Lord brings those people that are necessary in your life to increase your opportunities to serve them.
So far we've only met twice but each time has been so delightful and liberating. The key that I continue to pick up from the group is we're not just here to network. "It's the prayer that gives so much encouragement. Just knowing that somebody else cares enough about us as individuals is awesome. During the course of the day we can't help but think of each other since we purposed to pray together to start our week." It's statements like this that make it worthwhile to be involved...
Stay blessed,
Pastor Ced

Now this is what I'm talkin' bout! Sometimes in our fast-paced business lives we just don't get the opportunity to share the "Good News" that happens each and every day. It is our Daily Bread. And I can always depend on Pastor Cedric to give a "word spoken in due season (how good it is)". Thanks for making this Blog opportunity possible.
I attended the very first Small Biz Prayer Network "offline" meeting last week. I asked for prayer for wisdom. I own 5 businesses and my family (wife, 3 adult children and their spouses) work full-time with me. I realize that if our businesses fail, our entire family (with 8grandchildren)are all on the street.
By appearance, things were looking rather grim, but we walk by faith, not sight. Within a few days after prayer, we received 2 new ideas (revelations) that have completely pumped up our marketing plan. The word talks about "witty inventions" that will give you an advantage in your area of endeavor.
I'll be at the next "offline" meeting with 2 or 3 guests that want prayer. JOIN US and you will see a difference that flows to the bottomline!
