Not on God’s Watch!

You Will Not Fail.

Not on God’s watch!

Stay covered.

God’s got you.

The question is…

Do you have yourself?

Listen, trust yourself to do what God already knows you’re capable of doing. He wouldn’t have given you the desire to do the thing if He thought you’d fail.♥️

I love you,

God Is Molding You

You may not always see it, but when you take a moment to pause and breathe, you realize God is molding you into the person you are becoming.

Even when it feels like nothing is happening, God is shaping your heart, strengthening your faith, and preparing you for what’s coming. Stay the …

Small Happenings

Allow God to mold you. I believe you will be happy with the outcome.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

faith, trust God

Faith Is…

Faith is following God’s guidance when you have absolutely no idea where He’s taking you.

I have been working on a project for a few years now—moving as God says move. However, I’m not sure of what the end result will look like. God did not give me a vision for it. This morning I received an email about my next moves, and I’m kind of stuck on where to go from here. Sighing

Moving with Faith

Smiling through tears because I wrote today’s post, Moving with Faith (under Shaun’s Daily Inspiration), a few days ago not knowing I would need the message today. But God knew!

Y’all, God is so good. He knows what we need well before we know we’ll need it. I’m forever in awe of Him.🥰

Listen, move with faith. You don’t have to know how everything will end. Leave that to God. Just know that His guidance will not steer you wrong.

I pray you have a wonderfully blessed day. Make sure to be kind to yourself as well as to others.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Smiles – My Treasures

Finally packing my birthday memorabilia away and wanted to share these two cards with you. They’re what I consider my smiles, my treasures.🌺

The first card is from my bestie of 50 years! I just love her.♥️

This second one is from my baby girl. And as you can see, she still refers to herself as my baby. So does my son. They’re my hearts!🥰🥰


I know I’ve said this at least a thousand times— “I am truly blessed.” Y’all, I don’t take my life or the people God has placed in my life for granted.

Feeling grateful, loved, and blessed…

peace, trust God

Peace

Peace Begins with Trusting God. Trusting Him with every aspect of your life.

It’s the only way to experience true peace.


I pray you have a wonderful day and beautiful week. May it be filled with many blessings.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Hello Sunday (284)

Happy Sunday!☀️

I pray you’re doing well.

Today is one of those days when I just want to take it easy. I wish I were close enough to the coast to see the water. Even though it’s only a little over an hour away, I don’t feel like driving. I just need to be near nature where things are calm. Right now, I can hear the birds singing. I guess that’s enough for now.

What do you have planned for the day? I hope it’s something calm and relaxing.🌺

Be sure to stop by Shaun’s Daily Inspiration for a little inspiration. Here’s what I shared as an Instagram reel and YouTube short (the IG reel is a bit longer).

Singing “Yet Still I Rise”

Woke up singing Yolanda Adams’ song, “Still I Rise.” The song says—

Yet still I rise
Never to give up
Never to give in against all odds
Yet still I rise
High above the clouds
At times I feel low
Yet still I rise

Still I Rise” by Yolanda Adams

Y’all, God is so good. I am truly blessed.

I pray you have a wonderfully, blessed Self-Love Saturday. Remember to treat yourself kind and do something extra special for yourself. You deserve it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Twenties

What’s a chapter of your life you’d title “The Hard Years” — and what got you through it?

I would title my twenties as “The Hard Years” of my life. Actually, it all began the night I graduated from high school in 1991. I was 17 years old—just a kid.

That night, the guy who would eventually become my first boyfriend, showed up on his Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle, and life as I knew it changed. I spent those few years before my twenties and nearly the entire decade of my twenties on what seemed like a nonstop emotional roller coaster. During that time, I also joined the military and became a single mother. Honestly, life back then was just HARD.

So, how did I make it through?

1) Journaling– At the time, I had been journaling (keeping a diary) since childhood. I always wrote out my thoughts as if I were having conversations with God. Y’all, journaling got me through some tough times.

2) God– My relationship with God always remained constant. Even when I wasn’t at my best spiritually, I had faith that whatever I was going through would eventually get better. Don’t get me wrong, I probably cried the majority of my twenties, but I never lost faith in God.

3) Therapy– At 20 years old, I was smart enough to know I needed therapy and found a therapist at the base clinic. Even though I would spend the next several years crying and struggling, the coping techniques my therapist gave me were invaluable. I still use them today. Shout out to Ms. Elaine!

The hardest years of my life ended around age 28 when I had finished my second enlistment as an active duty airman. When I left active duty, I joined the reserves and enrolled in college. I would be lying if I said the tears and struggles stopped there, because they didn’t. However, life was far better than it had been, and it became even better in my 30s. Then my 40s hit and that was a whole-nother story! Smile.


Thank you for asking the question and allowing me to share. Wishing everyone a beautiful day!

Signed and sealed with gratitude and love,

Shaun♥️

believe, God’s Timing

Good Things Take Time

Feeling grateful and blessed this morning.

On July 9, 2022, I shared the following reel in my Facebook stories with the sticker “Good things take time.” This memory is a much needed reminder that good things do take time.

**This is a screenshot. Not clickable.😊

Nutrition with LaShaundreaB (NwLB) is still here! It’s gone through many phases of development over the past four years. I thought I would launch it and it would be an instant success. Laughing because my plans and timing were not aligned with God’s. I’m glad it didn’t take off then, because many things happened afterward that needed my focus. However, I now realize I had to start it, even if things didn’t go as planned. It was the seed being planted.

Over the years, I have continued to nurture NwLB—making changes here and there. It’s not where I want it to be, but it’s growing and one day it will be a display of God’s glory.😊


This is all for now. I pray you have a wonderful day today! You deserve it.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Two Weeks In

Good Morning!☀️

I have been 53 years old for exactly two weeks now. Woohoo!!🎉

So do I feel any differently?

Ummm… A little.

I feel a little more settled. A little more relaxed. Definitely breathing easier and taking things in stride. Not moving too fast and not going too slow. Everything is moving at the right pace.

Everything is good.

This is Year53…


I pray you have a lovely day. Be good to yourself.♥️

I love you,

Shaun
