Believe

October 24, 2020

Took forever for me to learn this lesson. Thankfully, I finally have.

So thankful for God’s love and grace, and for giving me time to grow and heal.

October 24, 2014

At the re-dedication of the Leah Chase Louisiana Gallery! Got to meet two of my favorite chefs- Chef Leah Chase and Marcus Samuelsson!! I am on cloud nine!!!

The day God showed me that all things were (are) possible through Him. All I had (have) to do is believe.

I can’t stress it enough, God is so amazing. Even on my darkest days He finds ways to get light through. Whew! Y’all just don’t know. I’ve had some rough times. However, God has never left my side. I am so very grateful for His love, covering, and protection.

I’m blessed!♥️

Celebrating Year 50: Month 4

Happy Birthday to me, again!! Just kidding. I am four months on this side of 50 and although this celebratory journey hasn’t been glamorous, it has been exactly what I have needed. Everyone who knows me knows I like watching God work. Well, I am doing just that. I now have a front row seat watching Him work in my life. You would think I would have been seated here all along, but nooo… I have been seated several rows back… in my own life. Shaking my head. Well, I am now front row at an exclusively, private screening of my own show, It’s Shaun’s World. Yes, I am finally here! Woohoo! And this time I am the main character. Can’t believe it has taken me this long to get here. Well, I did have to take care of my babies; however, I should have also been taking care of myself as well. Hindsight is 20/20, right?

Anyway, over the last four months, as with any good show, I have celebrated, cried, laughed, cried, gained a lot of wisdom, and cried even more. When I tell you these last four months have been intense—almost like a boot camp. As a result, I am stronger, wiser and more focused than ever.

Seriously, God’s been working on me. There were so many areas of my life that I thought I was doing well in only to find out I needed a lot more work. Here’s a quote taken from my Hello Sunday written two years ago.

“I believe God reveals things in stages. He reveals them when He knows we are equipped and ready to move to the next level. Whether we view the revelations as disappointments or blessings, every reveal or “aha” is always on time.”

I was so right. Every revelation has been right on time. Can’t wait to see where this show goes. I have eight more months left in the first of 50+ seasons. Wherever it goes I know that I will always come out on top. You know why? It’s because God is the writer, producer and director of this show. Plus, he loves me! Laughing

That’s all for now. Thank you for celebrating with me! I have a few Facebook memories to share later.

Take Care!♥️

God Sees and Knows All

God sees the entire picture. Unlike us, He’s privy to other’s thoughts, agendas, and side conversations. He knows what’s behind the smiles and what’s truly in people’s hearts. He also knows what mountains and valleys lie ahead. He knows which routes are the best and which ones lead to danger. Yes, God sees and knows all. Stay under God’s protection.♥️ ~ Shaun
