A few years ago, I made a video documenting a moment when I dreamed BIG and the dream came true. Here’s what I wrote when I shared the TikTok video on Instagram/Facebook.
Facebook Memory: January 18, 2022
“Manifest it! Wrote it down on 09/29/2014. On 10/24/2014 it happened. Y’all, it really doesn’t take long for God to work. He’s quite amazing!☺️
Never stop dreaming!”
And here’s a Facebook story I shared last year (January 18, 2024)—
The original quote “BIG Dream, BIG Faith” was shared on January 18, 2022 with the caption— “Do not let the size of a mustard seed fool you. Although tiny in size, it’s big, bold, and strong; and it carries a faith and confidence that can move mountains. Big dreams require big faith, which can be as small as a mustard seed.”
As I shared last year, you are already living in your dreams. Please be careful not to miss the beautiful moments in front of you because this isn’t the dream you envisioned. Enjoy every minute of now. Believe me, so many treasures can be found in this present moment. In time, you will see what you envisioned.♥️
As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “Faith is taking the first step when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
Have faith and take the first step.
Nearly four years ago, I took the first step to fully pursue my dreams. At that time, I couldn’t even see the next step ahead. However, as I moved forward, God revealed more steps.
Y’all… I’m so glad I took that first step. Soooo glad! Although I still can’t see the entire staircase, I can see more steps ahead. Today, I’m not as hesitant to make faith moves and I’ve become more confident with each move. I believe it’s because I’ve learned to trust God’s guidance. When He says wait, I wait—I’m not as impatient as I used to be to make things happen (timing is everything and others’ perceptions don’t matter)—and when He says move, you best believe, I move!
Again, have faith and take the first step. God’s got you!♥️
A few months ago, I was given a specific date to take another leap into the unknown. As time crept closer to me taking that leap, I kept playing around with the date until one day when I heard loud and clear, “That’s the date.” I was like, “Okay, I hear You, God,” and did what was asked. I was told that delaying what was asked of me would delay what He was trying to do for me. I took the leap even though I didn’t know and still don’t know how things will work out. I’m not sure what He has in store, but the atmosphere did change as soon as I leaped. Honestly, it changed when I decided to be obedient, which was before I actually leaped.
Be obedient and take the leap! As Pastor Joel Osteen said nine years ago, God will not ask you to give up something without giving you something better in return.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
I’m laughing at myself because I could’ve cropped this more. I just like seeing the “9 years ago.”☺️
You may not be able to see it, but God has a plan. All you need to do is sit back, relax, and go with the flow. He’ll guide you when it’s time to move. Believe me when I say, He’s got you!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
There’s no better or safer place to be than in God’s hands.
Guess what?! You were born to win! What may seem like a loss at the moment is a win for the future. God sees and knows things we are not privileged to. So, do not be too discouraged by what appears to be a loss. You will win!
As the song says, “Don’t wait ‘til the battle is over, shout now. You know in the end, you’re gonna win.” — “When The Battle Is Over” by Walter Hawkins (This used to be the song! IYKYK 😁)
And this isn’t about the election, it’s about life in general. YOU will win.
Shared on November 12, 2022 with the caption: “YOU were born to WIN! I love you and God loves you too. Have a blessed day!”
That’s all for now! Wishing you a winning day!🙌🏽♥️

“Everything you are going thru is preparing you for what you asked for.”
Whew! Sometimes, I wonder what I asked for because I didn’t think it was much. You would think I asked God for the world. Laughing
Honestly though, what did I ask for that requires so much preparation?
Up until Year50, I thought I knew; however, at this point, I am at a complete loss. If you have been following me for a while, you know that I did ask God to make this side of 50 different from the last. Well, I guess I had one thing in mind, and He had another. This side is different, but not as different as I would have liked. Baby… I was looking for all things to be new (I mean, He is God😉), not just my mindset. But, I guess that’s where different starts.
Anyhoo…
I have absolutely no idea where God is taking me. I asked for different than what was, and I guess that’s what He’s preparing me for. However, it had to start with my mindset, first.
Right now, I’m just going with the flow. I’m not going to lie, it’s pretty nerve wracking at times because I was so used to anticipating what came next. Now, I’m out here blindly following God’s lead, with absolutely no idea of what’s to come—like, none—completely clueless. Yep, I’m just out here trusting His lead, and trusting His love for me. I know He will not lead me wrong, and whatever different is, will be greater and better than I imagined.🙏🏽
Well, that’s all for now. Thanks for reading! I pray you have a wonderfully, blessed weekend.♥️
