Very quick update—
I received my answer. Just had to be quiet enough to hear God’s voice. The grace I needed had nothing to do with me slacking or being on social media. I needed to give myself grace to be human, to be me.♥️
Grace
Grace…
Right now, I am struggling between giving myself grace and chastising myself for not dedicating at least 75% of my time to work today. I have been working but slacking a lot. Been on social media a lot more than usual today. I should have made yesterday a rest day because, baby, I definitely feel the weight of my trip today. Now, I am trying to figure out if I should attempt to do more than I already have scheduled (my last client is at 7:00 PM) or just take it easy during my breaks.
Should I feel guilty for not feeling motivated to do more, or should I give myself grace?
I’m really struggling with this…😩

Believe In The Promise
Here’s what I shared six years ago. Don’t pay too much attention to the caption because I have absolutely no idea why I wrote, “All the time.” Smile. However, the messages are in the hashtags and Pastor Joel Osteen’s post.
Believe in the promise, and allow God to do the rest. The promise is coming.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Restoration
Good Morning!☀️
God is restoring everything! Everything you lost. Everything you thought you lost. This is restoration season. Can’t you feel it?! If you can’t, I surely can. I can feel it, and I can see it. It’s happening. Allow it to happen—yes, you must allow it to happen in order to experience the full effect.
I can hear the Winans singing, “Restoration has finally come. Been restored back to my place in God.”
What a wonderful feeling!
Y’all, God is so amazingly good. There is absolutely none like Him. We are truly blessed!
I pray you have a beautiful day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
My Journey With God, No. 37
Allowing God to lead.
I had written so much more but heard to delete it, so I did.
I say this all the time, and I am finding it to be very true—obedience matters.
Be obedient, even to the simplest ask. You never know what God is protecting you from or guiding you to.♥️ ~Shaun
Be Kind To Yourself
A little bit of kindness goes a long way. Have you been kind to yourself lately?
Remember to be kind and gentle with yourself. Nothing in life ever remains the same. You are growing and evolving like everyone else and deserve just as much grace. So please, be kind to yourself.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Love Is…
Good Morning!☀️
1 Corinthians 13:4–8 (NIV)
4. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8. Love never fails. …
Love always wins.
I keep hearing, “Love always wins when we let love in.” So, I guess that’s also a message. Smile
Well, that’s all for now. I pray you have a wonderful day and blessed week.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Finally Home
I finally made it home from visiting my daughter. Before I got on the road, I also visited my oldest nephew and his wife. He lives about 30 minutes from her, so the visit wasn’t out of my way. However, once I got to his place, he wanted me to spend a little time with him, too—which I did because he’s also one of my babies. Lol. So we went to breakfast and talked for a couple of hours before I actually left town. Overall, I had a wonderful trip, but I am glad to be home. Now it’s time to rest.
I hope you had a lovely Sunday, and pray you have a relaxing evening.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
We had breakfast at Hen Mother Cookhouse. The food was really good. My nephew had their chicken and waffles, but I forgot to take a picture of his plate. Oops!😬
Almost 30 Years
Wanted to share this before I got on the road. This young lady, my baby girl, my heart, has been through everything with me. All of my high moments and the very lowest of lows. The lows I tried to shield her from but it didn’t always work. I remember her catching me crying from time to time when she was around three or four and her telling me things were going to be alright. Y’all, she used to rub my head like I was the baby.
Having a child at 21 and being single and being in the military stationed hundreds to thousands (she went to Turkey with me) of miles away from family was more stressful than anything I had experienced, but I made it. We made it!
So, if it seems like I write about her a little more than I do my son, it’s not because I don’t love him just as much, it’s because me and this baby have been through some things. And now that she’s an adult, every chance she gets to do something special for me, she does. She’s forever loving on me. Her fiancé told me that she had a bad morning yesterday because things weren’t going as planned. She had planned for us to do something and it didn’t work out. I let her know that being in her presence and with her was worth so much more than anything she could’ve planned. Y’all, I love her so much.
Okay… let me wrap this up because I can feel my eyes swelling from the tears and I need to get on the road.
Next month she will be 30 years old. Where did the time go? I am so proud of the woman she’s become and is becoming. She’s my blessing.♥️
Hello Sunday
Good Morning☀️
Always remember who you are and Whose you are.
Never forget YOU are God’s child—hand crafted and uniquely made—royalty. There’s no other like you. Remember who He created you to be and boldly walk in it.
I pray you have a beautiful Sunday. Again, boldly walk in who you are!
Love you!♥️
