Never underestimate the grace, mercy, and power of God.

God, thank You for being You!

Amen

Just a little late night/early morning worship. I pray you have a restful night. May God grace you with peace. Amen♥️

Love you,

Shaun

God is working through you in ways that can’t be fully explained or understood. You’re spreading hope and changing lives in unimaginable ways. Keep allowing God to use you. You’re making a difference.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

After sharing today’s Quote of the Day, No. 151, on my social media platforms, I realized I had so much more to add.

It’s true, the beginning of our story has already been written; however, the ending has not. We have the power to change how our story ends. We don’t have to accept life as it is now or our current circumstances. I’m a believer that one small change, whether it’s a simple change of routine or mindset, can change the entire trajectory of our lives. I believe this because it’s happened to me before.

If you want a different ending, start making changes today.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

**Tap into your favor.🥰

On April 3, 2023, I wrote—

“You know you are blessed and you can feel God’s favor all around you, but have you accepted it?”

Sooo…

You’re surrounded by God’s favor.

But…

Have you accepted it?

**Thinking… Have I accepted God’s favor?

If you haven’t…

Why not?

**Thinking… Why haven’t I accepted it?

Just a few deep thoughts to kick off Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday weekend.

You’re sitting in the midst of God’s favor, but have you fully realized and/or accepted it?

As you move through your day and weekend, I encourage you to be more intentional about recognizing and accepting God’s favor. It’s all around you, and it’s given freely.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Exhaling…

Releasing the day.

God, thank You for getting me through the day.🙏🏽

Amen

Obedience.

I had forgotten that I shared this message on this day last year, until I read last year’s journal entry. At the time, I had a post scheduled but heard to reschedule that post for a later time and schedule this one in its place. Here’s what I wrote:

“By this time it was around 4:20 and almost time for the post to be published. That’s when I heard, “Obedience—Obedience is better than sacrifice.” And guess what, I already had a graphic created for the exact post I needed. By 4:30, I had found the scripture (1 Samuel 15:22), and wrote one sentence—“Be obedient, especially when you don’t understand.” And I definitely didn’t understand but I was obedient.”

The post I was referring to is “Obedience Is Better Than Sacrifice.”

As I suggest in the post, it’s not on us to understand God’s instructions. It’s on us to carry them out.

Today’s message is be obedient.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

You can do it.

“Tap into your inner child and create the life you have always dreamed.”

You got this!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

I recently tried to reset my life by disconnecting and, to some extent, isolating myself from the world I had created. I wanted to go back to my pre-social media era, when my life was simple—less noisy and complicated. I wanted to go back to when sitting on the porch and people watching was the highlight of my day. I replaced scrolling through my timelines with listening to nature, listening to music, and watching episodes of Murder, She Wrote, Columbo, Leave it to Beaver, and Girlfriends. I know, strange mix. I sent emails to inform people of my unavailability and canceled appointments and meetings.

I just needed to sit and be.

I needed to think about life, about the world I had created, and the world I’m currently creating.

I needed the calmness. I needed the peace of just being.

Today, my very short, much-needed break is over. If tomorrow weren’t Good Friday, I would have taken one more day for myself. But now, I have to jump back into the real world. The world I, Shaun, created. Will it be less noisy? Definitely not! I have a million and one things I need to do. But I needed the break.

Time to get moving!♥️
