You Can Wait

Shaun Bradford

If God tells you to “wait,” then wait. Don’t try to rush things along by interfering with what God is doing. Waiting means setting aside what you’re waiting for and focusing on something else—believe me, there are plenty of other things to focus on—without constantly checking or asking God if it’s time. Leave it alone. God will let you know when the wait is over. In the meantime, enjoy what you have right in front of you.

HA! That’s what I am saying now.

It wasn’t until Year50 that I released everything to God. As I have written before, I let my timeline go. For as far back as I can remember, I have had a timeline for something or have tried to help God along with things I felt He was moving to slowly with. To me, He never seemed to have the same sense of urgency as I did. I would often tell Him, “I’m not waiting 2-3 years.” Only to have the joke be on me because it would be 10, 20, or 30 years later before it happened. Yes, some things I have had to wait 30 years to see.

What I have learned is, God has us wait for a reason. Although it feels like we are being punished, it’s the exact opposite, we are actually being protected. Allow God to protect you (sometimes He’s protecting you from yourself because you’re not ready). As I mentioned before, while you wait, enjoy what’s in front of you. Take advantage of every opportunity and blessing you currently have. In due time the wait will be over, and guess what—you won’t even know how or when it happened. Smile

Praying you have a relaxing day and safe 4th of July. Love you!♥️

The answer to your question is, “Wait.”

Nothing else to add.

Miracle Worker

God is still working miracles. We must keep this in the forefront of our minds as we maneuver through these next several months and beyond.

God is a miracle worker.

Focus On The Picture

Shaun Bradford

The message is good but focus on the picture. Focus on the picture because it’s one of my best drawings yet. Smile. If you have not noticed, I have started drawing again. For a minute there, I thought my drawing phase had run its course. Guess not. I am back at it!

Facebook Memory: July 3, 2023

Your dreams are important, too important to let die. No matter what comes or goes, or how much time passes, never give up on your dreams. Everything will happen at the appropriate time.♥️

Following another dream that was not meant to die. I am an artist. Not will be but am.🥰

Have a wonderful day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Worthy

Shaun Bradford

Repeat after me—

“I am worthy of all good things. I am worthy of God’s best. I am walking in my worth. I am walking in goodness.”

Yes, you are worthy of all good things. Never doubt your worth. Love you!♥️

Shaun

Walk in it.

Trust The Process

Shaun Bradford

Facebook Memory: July 1, 2022

Life is interesting. We never know where it’s taking us. One minute we think we’re headed in one direction and the next, we’re headed somewhere completely different. Thankfully, in the end, we always land where we are meant to be. Trust the process.

Wishing you a wonderful first day of July! Speaking new opportunities and blessings over your month. Praying God blocks everything against you and whatever is meant for harm will instead work out in your favor.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Get Up

Shaun Bradford

You have been down for much too long. Now, it’s time for you to get up! Whatever storm(s) you have been experiencing is (are) over!!

Now, GET UP!

In case you forgot, God’s got you. He’s always had you.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford
Wonderfully blessed. Grateful.🌸

Hello Sunday! Not sure what I should write about this morning. I scrolled through my Facebook memories and read past journal entries from this date and nothing popped out. Maybe I will have something to share by the time I write my second post.

Well, these three things/phrases just came to mind. Hesitant to write them. Perhaps they will mean something to you.

Illusions
Trust God
Be prepared

That’s it! Very random.

Maybe I should have shared one of my Facebook memories instead. Lol. We shall see what I post next. Until then, please enjoy your Sunday!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Side note: I really hate feeling like the weird person every time I share things like this or random prayers. I promise y’all I am not crazy. What I am going to do is trust God, even if I sound crazy.🙏🏽

**Had to come back and add this part.**

After I published this post and stopped trying to figure out what those random words/phrases meant, I heard “Confidence.” My confidence. I must be confident in what I know God has for me to share. I focus too much on not wanting to sound weird or being called crazy. It’s not about me. It’s about God and His glory (which I shared yesterday).

Obedience
Acceptance

I hear You, God.♥️

For God’s Glory, Part 2

Shaun Bradford

While I was writing my previous post, “For God’s Glory,” I kept hearing Tasha Cobbs Leonard singing, “For Your Glory.” So, I added her song to my Instagram and YouTube posts. I guess you can say it’s my praise and worship song for today. Everything I do is all for God’s glory, not mine. He’s my reason. Amen.

Wishing you a wonderfully, blessed day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Messages On Repeat: Be Still and Wait

Shaun Bradford

Last year, I shared these two messages/memories as a pair and have decided to do so again this year.

I don’t know about you but there are times when I become impatient and frustrated waiting on God. Just being honest. So, I end up ignoring His guidance and attempt to do things on my own. However, every time I’ve done so, it’s turned out to be a huge mistake. Moving on my own or prematurely has never resulted in what I thought it would. Honestly, it’s only caused delays in my progress.

Remember, God knows what He is doing and what lies ahead. If He advises us to be still and wait, we must do just that; no matter how uncomfortable it gets. I promise you—speaking from experiences of both not waiting and waiting—when it’s time to move, everything will work out in your favor and better than you imagined. So sit tight while God works. And, when He finally says move, you better move!♥️

Love you,

Shaun
