The Wait

Shaun Bradford

Facebook Memory: November 4, 2022

Be patient. Everything will happen at its appointed time.♥️

It will happen.

No matter how long you have waited, keep waiting. It is better to wait for God’s best than settle for less and then try to mold what you settled for into God’s best. It doesn’t work that way. I don’t know about you, but I would rather wait for God’s best knowing that everything He has for me is only for me. Yes… ONLY for me.

My advice—be patient and wait on God. Allow Him to lead. He hasn’t forgotten about you. Remember, He is always working and everything will happen when it is time. Believe me, nothing or no one can stop it.

Love you!♥️

God’s Grace

Shaun Bradford

The song, “God’s Grace,” by Trin-I-Tee 5:7, often comes to mind when I think of grace. The song says–

Everything you need is right here
All of your problems, yes I’m aware
And when you’re down, I’ll be right there
You can call on me ’cause
I hear your prayer
No other name can put joy where there is pain
He will do it for you but first you gotta know that it’s by God

… It’s by God’s grace
All things through Christ Jesus
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
I’m so glad to know (So glad)
It’s by God’s grace
All things through Christ Jesus
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Lyrics: MusixMatch

So grateful for God’s grace.♥️ ~Shaun

You Got This: Keep Going

Facebook Memory: November 3, 2016

In 1992, my goal was to help end world poverty. Carol Moseley Braun was my inspiration. I had so many goals. When you’re young you tend believe that you have all the answers. Well, poverty is still here and will always be here. My goal is to help improve the quality of life of those living in poverty. I may not be able to save them, but I can help them.

Oh, I also wanted to be the Surgeon General of the United States. Boy did I have goals!😊

Carol Moseley Braun – First Black woman elected to the United States Senate (1992). In 1999, she became the Ambassador of the United States to New Zealand and Samoa.

Transparent moment…

My decision to return to school was not one that I made rashly. I know myself, and I know that this would have been something that would have hung over my head for years. I would have been okay with not finishing; however, I also would have wondered what would have been had I finished.

Today, I have a little over one week left in this term. I am mentally drained and a little discouraged. I am doing well, but not my best (yeah… I know this). I needed to see this memory today. I needed to be reminded of my “why.” I can do this!

That’s all for today. I may or may not make a second post today. Praying you have a wonderful weekend.

Be Blessed!♥️

Hold On

Shaun Bradford

Singing–

Hold on, just a little while longer
Hold on, just a little while longer
Hold on, just a little while longer
Everything is going to be alright

Pray on, just a little while longer
Pray on, just a little while longer
Pray on, just a little while longer
Everything is going to be alright

Keep praying. It’s working.

Love you!♥️

November is Here!

Shaun Bradford

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

Shaun Bradford

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

Shaun Bradford

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!
