“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7
Give your worries—every single thing that has your heart and spirit troubled—to God. Let Him carry the burdens for you, for they are far too heavy for you to bear.
“God knows what you need before you really need it… He knows how to hide you. In the comfort of His arms, you’ll have peace that passes understanding.”
Lean on God, and rest in Him. He’s got you.♥️
I love you,
Shaun

Be intentional about moving and thinking beyond what you see, because what you currently see is not final. Listen, God’s vision for your life is far greater than you imagine.♥️
Y’all, I have seen so many cute posts about 2016 and thought I wanted to share one myself, until I looked through my photos from that year—and there were a lot, more than any other year—and decided to pass.
2016 was probably one of the most eventful years of my life. I still can’t believe all that happened that year. Sadly, I lost all my journal entries from that entire year, so I only have photos and screenshots to rely on. After taking a scroll down memory lane, I find myself wondering whether 2016 was the apex of my life. Hmmm…
So, this is how 2016 started to how it ended…
Brought in the year with my late brother.Celebrated my daughter’s 21st birthday.Chef Rick Bayless was #3 on my list of people to meet. Visited his restaurant in Chicago.First year serving on our local Farmers Market board.Met Myrlie Evers-Williams.“MCE” by SWV was my song of the year.Not only was I the President-elect/President that year but I also received an award.🎉Me with my bestie celebrating my 43rd birthday.Me in my Queen Sugar gear. That was during my tweeting days.Went to see Beyoncé’s Formation World Tour.One of the BEST playlists/mixtapes yet! I listened to it for YEARS!Won a membership to a local cycling bar. My daughter and sister went with me on the first day.The year ended with me having an accident and my car being totaled.
Yeah… 2016 was some year!
Anyhoo… It was a nice visit down memory lane, and this was only a glimpse of my year. I also became an instructor at our university that year, planned our annual state dietetics conference, met some really cool people, and had so many beautiful experiences. Again, it does make me wonder…
You know, after writing this and seeing how the year began and ended, maybe that year was supposed to be the peak and perhaps the end. Maybe that car accident was meant to take me out, but it didn’t. Whew!
You know what?! My best days are definitely ahead of me because I’m still here!🥰

**I wasn’t going to share this but decided I should (not only because I spent so much time writing it😊). I’m sharing it because it’s so easy to become discouraged at times when we feel we’ve already experienced our best days. But we must know that as long as we’re still breathing, our best days are still ahead.
“He says, ‘Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.’” Psalm 46:10
Place your worries in God’s hands. Even when nothing seems to be moving, God is always working behind the scenes. Stay faithful, stay prayerful, and trust His timing. What He has promised will come to pass.♥️
I love you,
Shaun

There is absolutely no one in this world like YOU. NO ONE! God made you different for a reason because you have a unique purpose to fulfill. So, embrace who YOU are and go do what only YOU were created to do!♥️
