Healing Waters

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

I’m hoping all is well.🌸

Woke up hearing the words “healing waters.” Wasn’t quite sure what it meant so I asked AI. Here’s what AI had to say—

“Healing water generally refers to water, often in natural settings like springs or rivers, believed to possess therapeutic or restorative properties, both physically and spiritually.”

Spiritually it “represents spiritual cleansing, renewal, and the transformative power of faith.”

Healing waters…

I’m getting the feeling that it’s time for me to visit the water again. I haven’t been in a month or so. There’s just something about the water that seems to make time stand still. So calming. So peaceful.

On another note, I must have been exhausted last night because I fell asleep with not one, but two lights on in my bedroom, and I was still lying on top of the covers. Didn’t wake up until after 5:30 AM, which is late for me. And when I did, I heard the words “healing waters.”

Maybe this is my sign to disconnect for a few days.

Hmmm…

Healing waters.

Anyhoo… I pray you have a wonderful day! May it be filled with unconditional love, joy, peace, and happiness. You deserve it!🌺

I love you always,

Shaun

Full-Circle Moments: Trust God, His Process, And His Plan

Shaun Bradford

Since turning 50, I have experienced quite a few full-circle moments, many of which I didn’t see coming. Today, I had another one of those moments. The Facebook post I shared three years ago is still true—what you’ve gone through or are currently going through is preparing you for where you’re headed. Hang in there. Trust God, His process, and His plan. Stay open to opportunities that resurface. They are not all negative. I’m finding most are opportunities to do things better or move us towards our goals and dreams.

Remember, as long as God’s in the opportunities—and you’ll know if it’s Him—you won’t fail. He’s got you!♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Rejoice, Pray, and Give Thanks–Part 2

Shaun Bradford

Listen! When I tell you my past messages give me goosebumps! They’re always so timely.

The first reminder this morning (see Rejoice, Pray, and Give Thanks) had me praising God, but THIS ONE just touched my soul! I assumed I used the same caption when I shared the image on both my personal and Shaun’s Daily Inspiration pages, but I didn’t. I guess it was meant for me to see it and share it twice! Yes, I believe God is strategic like that.

Here’s what I shared on my Shaun’s Daily Inspiration page—

Whew!! I know this message can’t only be for me!

Get Up! You have work to do.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Rejoice, Pray, and Give Thanks

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

I pray all is well with you.🌸

Here’s an encouraging reminder from a year ago—

“Get up. God has conquered your storm.”

On the same day, I shared the following video on YouTube: “Get Up! Your storm is over now.”

Listen. Never underestimate the power of God, nor the power of prayer and praise. Keep praying. Keep praising. In good times, as well as bad. It’s easy to slack off when things are good, but those are the prayers and praises that keep you strong during the storms. They keep you going!

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NIV)

16. Rejoice always,

17. Pray continually,

18. Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Rejoice, pray, and give thanks. (Repeat)

Today’s the final day of my birthday month. I truly enjoyed my celebrations. Smiling as I think about my time with my babies. Just thinking about our conversations and their smiles makes my heart sing. I love them so much.🥰🥰

I pray you have a wonderful day and fabulous week! May both be filled with love, joy, peace, and unexpected favor (claiming this for myself too☺️).

God is good.♥️

I love you much,

Shaun
