My Journey With God, No. 56

You know how one thing leads to or is connected with another? Well, I was looking at photos from January 29, 2023—pictures of my mom—and saw the screenshot below. This led me to check and see what I had posted on that date. Honestly, I wasn’t ready for what I had written.

Probably took the screenshot because 6-24 is my birthday. Seeing that number always makes me smile.

Hello Sunday”– January 29, 2023

I keep asking myself why I have to be so strong. Why me? I’m tired of being strong alone. JOURNAL ENTRY, JANUARY 29, 2015

In the same entry, I added a quote from Joel Osteen –

“Negative, defeated thoughts will drain your energy. You wouldn’t be facing it if you couldn’t handle it. You’re anointed for this — God would not have allowed it if you weren’t ready for it and equal to it.”

That “I’m tired of being strong alone,” seems to be the story of my life. However, just like Joel said, I wouldn’t be facing it if I couldn’t handle it. Honestly, I’m beginning to believe that being strong alone is my super power. Hmmm…

Anyhoo… I’m going to visit my mom today! This time I’m taking her dog, Nala. I know they will be happy to see each other. 

Well, that’s all I have to share today. Y’all, life is one big adventure, let’s make sure we make the best of it.♥️


“Honestly, I’m beginning to believe that being strong alone is my super power.”

I don’t like that statement. I’m not meant to be strong alone. No one is.

One thing is true, though, life is one big adventure. And I do plan to make the best of it.♥️ ~Shaun
