Hello Sunday

Good Morning!☀️

I hope you’re doing well.🌸

On this day eleven years ago, I was listening to William Murphy’s song, “Praise Is What I Do.”

Praise Is What I Do” by William Murphy

The song says—

I vow to praise You
Through the good and the bad
I’ll praise You
Whether happy or sad
I’ll praise You
In all that I go through
Because praise is what I do
‘Cause I owe it all to You

Yes! Praise is what I do.

Keep praising God. Never stop praising Him. Let Him know how much you love and honor Him. Not solely for the things He’s done in your life, but because He is God and He is good. Amen


I pray you have a beautiful, relaxing Sunday. May it be filled with love, joy, peace, and unexpected blessings.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Perfect Timing

Or should I say, “Legendary.“

I have yet to watch a movie or find a good series to binge. I have been watching Shedeur Sanders’ content since last night. Fell asleep scrolling through posts and reels of people’s reactions to his first NFL game (preseason game), woke up scrolling, and still scrolling!! When I tell you I feel like a proud mom/auntie!! Been following Coach Prime and his sons (all three, Bucky, included) since he was at Jackson State University (JSU).

Y,all, he’s always been intentional about how he’s trained, managed, and fathered his children, especially his sons. People can criticize and talk smack, but Deion has produced three well-rounded, God-fearing, faith-filled men. If you only look at the bling and confidence that so many have confused with arrogance, you’ve missed the entire picture. I’m so proud of Shedeur.

Looking forward to Shilo’s debut. Bucky (Deion Jr.) is already doing his thing. He is brilliant at capturing and promoting the perfect moments for his dad and brothers. He’s the true star!

Back at JSU, when Coach Prime said, “I Believe,” I believed. His faith rubbed off on me—well… some of it.😅 He still has much more faith than I do, but I’m getting there.

God is good. As they (Coach and his sons) are known for saying, God is in control and has a plan for whatever happens. Everything that happens will always be for God’s glory. Amen

Now, let me eat (haven’t eaten breakfast or lunch, but I did shower☺️) and then find a good movie to watch. Y’all take it easy.

Love you!♥️

Brighter Days

May your today be as bright as the sun, and may every day that follows be just as bright, if not brighter.♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

**Now I can’t stop hearing Kirk Franklin’s song, “Brighter Day.” I just love how the mind works. There always seems to be a song for every thought. Gotta love music.☺️

I Am Truly Blessed

Good Morning☀️

My treasures are priceless. As I mentioned a few years ago, my treasures are things that can’t be bought or replaced. They’re the things that make me smile—old notes and letters, my journals (over 35 years of entries), texts, voicemails, random pictures (physical and saved to my phone), Facebook memories (I hope they never get rid of them), my two hearts (my adult babies🥰🥰) and our conversations, time spent with family and friends, and the list goes on. I am truly, truly blessed.

What are some things you treasure, whether purchased or not? What makes your heart smile whenever you see or think about it/them?


I pray you have a wonderful self-love Saturday. Today, I’m not going anywhere—while writing this, my thoughts are saying something differently.🤭 The plan is to spend the day watching random movies or binge-watching a new series. We shall see how everything goes.☺️

Anyhoo… Have a wonderful day! Remember to do something special for yourself. You deserve it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 112

Sitting here thinking about how good God is. Y’all, He’s so good. Even on my worst day (not today—today’s been a good day☺️) He’s still good.

Whenever I want to quit, He nudges me to keep going.

Whenever the tears won’t stop flowing, He comforts me.

When chaos surrounds me, He gives me peace.

There’s absolutely none like my God.

Feeling grateful and blessed.🥰

Lord, thank You for loving me.♥️
