Travis Hunter!🌟

That’s the post!

Travis just won the 2024 Heisman Trophy!

I have followed Travis’ career since he was at Jackson State University and now at the University of Colorado Boulder. Y’all, I am so proud of him. I’m so proud of the player and young man he’s become. Although he’s very confident, he’s very humble and very respectful. Watching him over the years has been like watching God work in real-time. I saw where he was a few years ago, and I see where he is now. He’s always been a great player, but he’s even better now and prepared to move to the next level—the NFL. This win was well-deserved!

Out here feeling like a proud momma. Lol

Good Night, y’all.♥️

Self Love Saturday

Shaun Bradford

Sitting here reflecting on the past couple of days. Y’all, God is so very amazing.

Revelations 21:5 (NIV) says, “… I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

I wish you could feel what I am feeling right now. I’ve been hanging out with my daughter the past couple of days, and this is the first time—very first time—since I was around six years old that I haven’t had to worry about anyone else besides myself. Even when I joined the Air Force and left home, my siblings were always at the forefront of my mind. I’ve always been their second mom, so it was natural for me to be concerned about them. Afterwards, my babies became the center of my life, and then my parents.

Y’all, this is the first time ever that I am my only concern. This is the most liberating feeling I have had in my entire adult life. Like I said, I wish you could feel what I am feeling. Honestly, I never knew it was possible to feel this way. I am so, so, soooo very blessed.

I pray you’re having a wonderful weekend. Don’t forget to do something extra special for yourself today.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Blessed! God is good.

Chosen On Purpose

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

God chose YOU on purpose for His purpose.

That’s the message.

God chose YOU on purpose for HIS purpose.

As I wrote three years ago, “let that sink in.“

Listen, no one—NO ONE—can do what you do. They may come close, but they will never be able to do what you were chosen to do. God placed a very specific, very unique key inside of YOU to unlock plans, dreams, and hopes others have been waiting for. There’s absolutely no other like you! Allow God to use you.♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Chosen. God’s child.

What Do You Want?

Shaun Bradford

I found this image in my March 15, 2021 journal entry. (See “I Woke Up Like This” for context.)

“How can you get what you want, if you don’t know what you want?”

Deep, right?

That day (March 15, 2021), I made a list of things I wanted for my business. However, several weeks ago, when I asked myself the same question, I answered it based on my core values and what I wanted most from life.

I have to agree with Michael Baisden. We’ll never get what we want if we don’t know what we want.

Just a little food for thought.

That one entry had soooo many gems. I’ll leave you with this quote from Bishop T. D. Jakes (also included in the entry)—

“God has positioned you for purpose.”

Actually, he said to write it down, so I did.

I am positioned for purpose.

YOU are positioned for purpose.

We were not created just to exist. No, we were created to fulfill a purpose. We’re already positioned to do so, so let’s move accordingly.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
