November is Here!

November is finally here! I am so excited because two of my besties turn 50 this month! Woohoo!! They are finally joining me on this next journey of life.

Today’s blog is about purpose. Are you living within your purpose? Here’s what I shared a year ago.

Facebook Memory: November 1, 2022

Purpose is not self-centered or self-serving. Purpose is so much greater than us.

I believe our true purpose in life is to fulfill another’s need. There’s something that we provide – different things for different people – that allows them to fulfill their purpose.♥️

We are all connected. Your purpose is far greater than you know.

I will add, sometimes we are aware of the need(s) we are fulfilling; however, often we are not. Only God knows what our presence in another’s life truly means. Keep allowing God to use you. Not only are you fulfilling your purpose but you are also fulfilling God’s purpose.

Love you!♥️

Miracles Happen Everyday

Little Miracles (Happen Every Day) by Luther Vandross
Lyrics: LyricFind

First thing I know, God is love
The next thing would be, He loves me
Sometimes I’m tired of waiting for a thing or someone
Then I stop and see what He’s done and I know everything will come
Maybe today, anything can change, nothing stays the same
Maybe today, what’s tomorrow for, no one knows for sure
Through it all, come what may
Little miracles happen everyday

What is a miracle?
Love is a miracle
Every time that you care, a miracle, it happens somewhere
So many miracles, even small little miracles
Just take one look about, it’s not hard to figure out
‘Cause it might be today, anything can change nothing stays the same
And maybe today, what’s tomorrow for, no one know for sure
Through it all, come what may
Little miracles happen everyday

Yes, they still happen. Never stop believing.

Love you!♥️

You Are Already Equipped With What You Need

Facebook Memory: October 30, 2023

You CAN and WILL achieve everything you set out to do. Please do not allow where you currently are to discourage from even trying. God believes in you so why not believe in yourself.

Maybe your current situation doesn’t reflect what you envisioned so you feel a need to give up. Please don’t. Work through the uncomfortable moments. God would not have given you the dream if it couldn’t be achieved. You are already equipped to make it happen.♥️ ~ Shaun

Can’t stress this enough—You got this!

Wide Awake: Guess I Will Write

Funny how I can write when I’m writing for fun but get writer’s block when I’m writing for class. Ugh! Just submitted an assignment that took much longer than expected. Was stuck on one paragraph for hours. This school thing is more mental than anything else. Trying not to think of how much longer I have left in the program. Taking things one day at a time.

I noticed that it was already after midnight so I went scrolling through my Facebook memories. Came across one of my blogs from my other (basically neglected) page – theresearchdivard.wordpress.com. I really need to start blogging over there at least a few times per year. Here’s the caption that I posted along with the blog.—

Pursuing My Dreams October 30, 2021

Earlier this year, I decided to venture out and pursue some of my lifelong dreams. One thing the pandemic has taught me is that I cannot keep delaying my dreams hoping to pursue them in the future. The future is now. Check out my blog and see where I am headed!

I had written that particular blog for my digital marketing class. Had decided I wanted to go into marketing. Honestly, I had no idea what I wanted to do. I was free from working a 9-5 job and everything that sparked my interest I wanted to pursue. Fast forward to today, I am back where I started, nutrition and public health.

It was cool to venture out and try something different. I still love aspects of marketing but I don’t think I will ever make a career of it.

Okay… I’m finally sleepy. I’ll write more later.

Good Night.♥️

Listen and Respond Accordingly

Happy Sunday! Here’s a message from this date last year.

Facebook Memory: October 29, 2023

Be still and listen.
Be quiet and listen.
The answer’s there.
Just listen.

Once you’ve received your answer, it’s on you to accept it or not.♥️

God has spoken. You already have the answer. Now it’s up to you to respond accordingly.

Praying you have a wonderfully, blessed day.

Love you!♥️
