I believe I am one of the modern-day Paul Revere(s): I am just the guy warning the other warriors that the enemy is coming for small businesses. My Biblical heroes are Sampson and David. These two men ran toward the fight or battle and not from it. Both men had great courage and feared no one. They both had great faith, loved the Lord, and had a serious prayer life. I have tried to pattern my life with the Lord: Having faith in Jesus since I was 5, studying the Word as often as I could, and I have always sought God’s will. I have read the entire Bible over 25 times during my lifetime. I spent many hours in prayer. God has opened so many doors for me to bring me to this crusade for small businesses. As I reflect on my life, God has created me for serious battle with the deep state dragon that has lorded our brothers by using fear (IRS). My battles with IRS and other government agencies have been numerous and the successes, significant. Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.livewellshow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/

Initially, I feared that blindness at 30 would stop me from a full life of abundance. I worried that the tragic loss of my son to violence would erase hope of happiness and joy. I dreaded living a life with injustice when the man responsible for his death was acquitted. And when my husband left me, I fought anxious moments that rejection brought.My life might seem one of adversity. But through God, my story shines with victory and joy. That’s why for 20 years, I’ve dedicated my life to show you, no matter what setback you’re facing, how victory is won, how fear is overcome and how true richness in life is found. I believe your own success, victory, and triumphant life are only as close as your determination and faith. My commitment to you is to prove how adversity doesn’t have to stop you and situations out of your control don’t have to slow you down. While the rest of the world is sinking in fear, together we’ll find that unique path that allows you to soar to personal triumph and professional success."Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.livewellshow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/
