God Has The Final Say

God’s got you!

No matter what you are going through or what things may look like, remember God has the final say. Keep your head up and keep going because it is not over until God says it’s over. Can’t you hear Maurette Brown Clark singing, “It ain’t over, til God says it’s over. … Keep fighting until the victory is won.” Well, I surely can. Smile (It Ain’t Over)

Wishing you a fabulous week.

Be blessed!♥️

Hello Sunday

This morning I am torn between sharing the song that’s currently in my head or, not one, but several Facebook memories. The song has nothing to do with the memories. It’s just what I woke up hearing.

Hmm…. Let’s see what I decide.

Well, I went to my journal for inspiration, and my entry from last year basically summed up the Facebook memories I was thinking of sharing. So, I guess I will share a snippet of what I wrote.

Journal Entry: February 4, 2023

Today’s quote was, “Keep Showing Up.” I’m learning more and more that my dreams are not meant to be given up on. Even when I feel like things just aren’t going to happen or everything is pointless, God shows me otherwise. Those goals that I wrote down years ago, as well as the dreams I had as a little girl, they’re all going to come to fruition. What I imagined over 40 years ago, I will have. I just have to keep showing up and allowing God to lead.

I ended the entry with–

Lord, I’m trusting You to do it Your way. Amen

Honestly, I really don’t need to write more. I believe that said it all. The only thing I will add is, no matter what, do not give up on your dreams. Many of mine are over 40 years in the making and I still have not given up so you don’t either. Love you!♥️

P.S. That song that’s currently stuck in my head is “Exhale” by Whitney Houston. I know, very random, but that’s me. Smile

I was going to save this message for tomorrow, but I just cannot hold it.

Listen….

Keep going!

Keep going!

Keep going!

DON’T LET UP!!!

Keep going!

Keep going!

Keep going!

2024 started off a bit weird, but we are all going to finish this year strong!

Just remember, no matter what, KEEP GOING!!!♥️

In God’s Arms

Woke up with the song, “Safe in His Arms,” playing over and over in my head. I know I shared it in this week’s Hello Sunday, but I have to share it again. Listen, stay covered. Stay in God’s arms. No one can love you, protect you, or give you the peace you need like He can. I don’t know about you, but I am so grateful and blessed to have Him as the head of my life, leading and protecting me. Amen.

Safe in His Arms
Lyrics:
Musixmatch

Because the Lord is my shepherd
I have everything I need
He lets me rest in the meadow’s grass
And He leads me besides the quiet stream

He restores my failing health
And helps me to do what honors
That’s why I’m safe

That’s why I’m safe
That’s why I’m safe
Safe in His arms

When the storm of life is raging
And the billows roll
So glad He shall hide me
Safe in His arms

So glad, He shall hide me
Safe in His arms

Y’all, please stay safe. Stay covered. Stick with God.

Love you.♥️

God’s Got You

Trust Him.

Matthew 6:25–27 (NIV Bible)

25. “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?

26. Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

27. Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

That last scripture says it all! Worrying does not add one single hour to your life, but it definitely subtracts from it. Again, God’s got you!

Be Blessed♥️

Stay Encouraged

Do you have inspirational quotes randomly placed throughout your house? Well, I do. From sticky notes to the screensavers on my phone and laptop, they are everywhere. I intentionally placed them where I can see them so I will not have to look far for a boost of encouragement. Let me tell you, it works!

Was sitting at my desk thinking about how I should have handled something differently. Was really beating myself up over it, and then I looked up and saw these two quotes.

This one made me smile.😊

This one reminded me that this too shall pass.♥️

Now, I am smiling. The thing I was beating myself up over seems like something of the past, even though it was less than an hour ago. One of the reasons I create and share inspirational messages is because I know how easy it is to become discouraged. One word, thought, or conversation can trigger negative emotions. Keeping something positive near is essential.

I pray you are having a great day. Be blessed!♥️

One Quote, Two Captions

One quote, two captions. Both messages were too good not to share. As we know, movement is necessary for advancement and growth. All we have to do is take the first step. God will do the rest.

Facebook Memory: January 29, 2019

Good Morning! Here’s today’s social media find. Just move. Even if you have to crawl, MOVE. Sometimes I find myself spending more time on contemplating my next move than actually moving. I’m not going to lie, it’s my fear of failure and things not being perfect. However, when I do move (doing something as simple as picking up a pen and paper), wonderful things begin to happen. Just MOVE and watch God work! He’s so AMAZING!

Facebook Memory: January 29, 2022

I’m learning this more and more. Take the first step and God will do the rest. I’m not going to lie, taking the first step isn’t always easy. Sometimes you have to take it afraid and sometimes you have to take it alone. However, in the long run, you’ll look back and realize it was all worth it.

Well, that’s all I have right now. Wishing you a fabulous week! Listen, life is too wonderful and too short to sit still and watch it pass by. Get moving. Take that first step!

Love you!♥️

Much More Is Waiting

As I wrote two years ago, where you currently are is not where you are meant to stay. There is so much more waiting for you to see and achieve. Keep going!♥️ ~Shaun

Facebook Memory: January 8, 2022

Where you are at in this moment in time is not where you are meant to stay. Do not give up and whatever you do, please do not settle. Higher IS waiting.

You have come too far to stop now. Keep going higher!🙏🏽♥️

Progress Is Progress—Period!

I shared the following two years ago.

Facebook Memory: January 7, 2022

Progress IS progress. Whether it’s one step or leaps closer to achieving your goals or dreams, always acknowledge your progression. It really is a big deal!

Note: Your progress does not have to be visible to others. So stop worrying about who notices. You may not be where you want to be, but you’re moving.😌

Much too often we look at what others are doing or their success, and forget to acknowledge our own progression. I’m so thankful I’m not where I use to be 5 or 10 years ago, even a month ago. Ain’t God good!

No matter how far off things may seem, every day you become a little closer to your dreams. Keep going!

Love you!♥️
