Your “Yes”

Shaun Bradford
When you tell God “Yes,” be prepared for whatever comes.

In case you didn’t know, it was your “Yes” that set everything in motion. It was your “Yes” that ignited it all. It was your “Yes” that had you believe all things were possible. Now, it’s your “Yes” that will allow you to experience God’s glory.

Bet you didn’t know your “Yes” was so powerful. Smile♥️

Good Night (5)

Shaun Bradford

Attempting to wind down but the song, “My Testimony,” by Marvin Sapp keeps playing over and over in my head. I guess my soul is having its own late night praise and worship session. The song says:

So if you see me cry
it’s just a sign that I’m,
I’m still alive,
oh yeah, I got some scars,
but I’m still alive
In spite of calamity
He still has a plan for me
And it’s working for my good
and it’s building my testimony

Y’all, I made it! I actually made it through. When I look back over my life and all the things I have gone through; things that should have taken me out; things that made me want to quit; all I can do is praise God.

Y’all, I made it!!!

Blessed and grateful…

God is good.

Praying you have a restful night.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

A Reflection: It’s Been Ten Years

Shaun Bradford

In my previous post, I mentioned receiving an invite to a media training that awakened so many dreams. Well, here’s what I wrote afterwards:

Shaun’s Journal Entry: June 3, 2014

New Orleans was definitely a great professional experience. I came back with a sense of worth. I felt like I could actually accomplish my goals. I now have a different outlook on life & my role in this universe. I am destined for greatness & there’s nothing wrong with it. Thank you God for helping me realize my potential. Please give me the knowledge, strength, courage, and intelligence to do things the correct way. I thank you so much for the favor!

Y’all, there are so many key elements in that entry that I had no idea I would struggle with over the years that followed. Didn’t see any of it coming. When I tell you my life was disrupted for real! Whew!! But I made it!!!

One of my biggest struggles, which I believe is the reasoning behind the self-sabotage, is this one statement: “I am destined for greatness…”

Y’all, that was a very bold statement. I saw it. I felt it. And over the years whenever I felt it creeping up again, I would shut it down. Every. Single. Time.

Very interesting revelation, isn’t it? Had no idea I was even doing it.

Moving forward, I am going to keep the same prayer in mind—

God, please give me the knowledge, strength, courage, and intelligence to do things the correct way. Amen

I believe if I make this prayer the center of all future endeavors, I will be okay.

Here’s to 10 years!🎉🎉

Yes… this is Year50…♥️

Here are a few pictures from my trip and the invite from this day ten years ago. Still can’t believe it’s been ten years.
