Obedience Is Key

Obedience is key to contentment and peace. I believe most people understand what it means to be at peace, but I do not know if many understand the concept of contentment—the state of happiness and satisfaction. I have heard people associate contentment with settling, or the lack of ambition; however, being content is so much more. For me, it’s waking up knowing that God is in control and has me in His hands. That whatever comes or goes, He’s got me. In no way does it mean that I have settled for what is, nor does it mean I do not desire more. No, it means I’m good. I am finally happy with my life.


This morning, I was reminded that I asked for both, peace and contentment; and that’s exactly what I have been gifted. My obedience has afforded me these gifts and I refuse to let them go. I have learned that I don’t have to have all of the answers, or completely understand the assignment to make moves. All I have to do is be obedient and follow God’s guidance, and He will do the rest.

Loving this space I am in. I’m blessed.♥️ ~Shaun

Year 50: Month 10

Around this time last year, I was trying to spend as much time as I could with my mom. We knew, and she knew, she wasn’t going to be around much longer.

I miss her…

Two more months left in this jubilee year! God is good. Thankful for peace and contentment. Thankful for life. I believe I will celebrate this day by doing something my mom would have liked, or eating one of her favorite dishes. Yeah… that’s what I will do. This one is for you, Dorothy Ree. I love you.♥️

Her firstborn. Almost 50 years together. My momma.💗

God Has Smiled On Me

God’s been good to me.

Singing–

God has smiled on me
He has set me free
Oh, God has smiled on me
He’s been good to me

There’s nothing like being smiled on by God. It’s called being blessed.

Grateful…

Praying you have a blessed day!♥️

When It’s Time

“When it’s time,” was the only thing I wrote in my journal entry on this date a year ago (April 21, 2023). Nothing else. Not sure why I wrote it. There was no other context. Maybe God knew I would share it today and someone would need to hear it. Not sure, but it’s here. Be Blessed.♥️ ~Shaun

Added “everything happens” to give it a little more context. However, the original message was and is, “When it’s time.”

Hello Sunday

Today, I am keeping this post just as short as I did my Facebook post a year ago. The message is simple, yet powerful—

“Just believe.”

Originally shared on April 21, 2023 with the caption, “Just believe.♥️”

That’s it! Praying you have a beautiful Sunday. Love you!♥️
