My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
So many will settle for God’s blessings. However, I do not want His blessings without His favor.
According to Cambridge Dictionary, favor is defined as the support or approval of something or someone.
Listen, I love God’s blessings, and He gives them graciously; however, His approval is what I am seeking. Can’t you hear the Clark Sisters singing, “Blessed and Highly Favored”? I definitely can. Wishing you a beautifully, blessed day!♥️ ~Shaun
Honestly, I did not know what I would share today. I guess I am in my feelings. Today is my daughter’s 29th birthday and she’s over 300 miles away. It’s not like we have never celebrated from a distance before. Last year she was in New York. The year before, Miami. This year is just different.
I thought about getting on the road and going to surprise her. However, it’s raining here and raining there. Had to think about safety. Plus, we actually celebrated before she left. So why is today different?
Anyhoo…
I am so proud of the woman she has become. She is everything I hoped and dreamed for and sooo much more. I admire her strength, I adore her passion, and I respect her honesty. I also love the way she loves me. I never imagined being loved and cared for so deeply. Y,all, it still blows my mind that I am a mother. I am so looking forward to getting to know the woman she is becoming. Smiling
Friday morning praise and worship:
Singing🎶
Thank You, Lord
Thank You, Lord
Thank You, Lord
I just want to thank
You, Lord
You’ve been so good
You’ve been so good
You’ve been so good
I just want to thank
You, Lord
Flashback to when the rain was gone and the sun was shining. Grateful for both, the sun and the rain. Both are necessary for growth. However, I really prefer the sunshine. Don’t we all?☺️
Blessed!♥️

Who can relate?
In difficult times, it seems easier to put God first. You know, that’s when we are deep in prayer so we are usually communicating with Him often. But, how about when times are good and everything is going well? Is He still first, or is He second, third, or even last to everything else?
A few years ago, I created a daily routine to ensure I put God first because I noticed when things were going well I did not spend as much time with Him as I did before. Now, don’t get me wrong I still said a quick prayer in the morning and acknowledged Him throughout my day; however, I stopped dedicating time to only Him. I would say I would get to it later, and sadly, later never came. Now, I intentionally set aside time. Y’all, so much is revealed during these times. It’s during these times that I actually feel closer to God. It’s when my faith is strengthened.
If you find yourself forgetting to prioritize God, maybe you should do as I did and create a plan where He is always first. Just a thought.
Wishing you a wonderful day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Think about it. I mean, really think about it. Are you doing what you love? Not only career wise but in life. Or…are you waiting for conditions to be right or better before you decide to do it?
It’s my hope that you are doing what you love and that you absolutely love what you are doing. Sometimes we find ourselves doing what we love but because we are not in the right environment our experiences are not favorable. Been there.
I hope you are doing both. If not, I pray you will be soon. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun
I believe the secret to a good life consists of actually living it; laughing often (gotta laugh); loving wholeheartedly; and being genuinely kind to others (not for show). Here’s what I shared two years ago.
Facebook Memory: January 23, 2024
Live: Stay present!
Laugh: Your soul needs it.
Love: Unconditionally – it’s the secret of true peace and happiness.
Be Kind: EVERYONE’s struggling with something. No one’s exempt.
Focus on who & what truly matters and let the rest go. Life is short, spread LOVE!♥️ #ILoveYou
Again, spread love. Everyone needs love, even those we do not believe deserve it—they need it. Approaching them with hate only adds hate to your heart. Also, add hope. Whenever possible, add a little bit of hope to your conversations. Give people something to look forward to even if you cannot see it. Listen, hope goes a long way. It keeps life going.
That’s all I have for now. Wishing you a beautifully, blessed day.
Enjoy!♥️
