My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Thanks to Senator Cory Booker’s post this morning, PERSEVERE is the word of the day!
No matter how many setbacks you have, keep trying. No matter how many times you have to restart, keep starting. Keep dreaming. Keep creating. Keep building. PERSEVERE! In time, everything you once dreamed will be your reality.
PERSEVERE!♥️

Last night I shared the following on YouTube, “When in doubt, look to God. He always has the answer.”
Y’all, I am speechless, emotional, feel woozy, can’t even comprehend what is happening because here is one of today’s Facebook memories:
Shaun’s Daily Inspiration: March 29, 2023
You ARE the answer.♥️
Y’all, I am lying here bawling. Not sure why this has hit me so hard. Is it because He actually answered so fast? Like, I didn’t even expect an answer. Didn’t even realize I had a question to be answered. But evidently my soul did. Whew!! I was just writing what I heard while I was creating the post. I’m not sure how to process this one. I definitely need a moment. Is this an answer to a future question? Speechless
Y’all… I had no idea I was the one in doubt. Just mind blowing. Yeah… I need a minute for this one. God has never, ever responded like this. So clearly. Without any room for doubt. Whew!
I pray you have a wonderful day! And Happy Good Friday to everyone celebrating.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Listen…
Keep Going!!
God’s got you.♥️

Y’all, there is so much going on in the world. So much hate, chaos and negativity. Lately, I have been wondering if I really want to still be here in 50 years. What would that look like? Would I be a survivor of some disaster? It’s a lot to think about.
However, with that being said, I cannot allow what’s happening in the world make me lose hope or faith in God. I know He is still in control and His love is everlasting. Better days are ahead. Better months, years, decades and centuries are ahead. I cannot give up hope. WE must not give up hope.🙏🏽♥️ ~Shaun
Hey you!
Yes, YOU!
What are you stressing about?
You know that opportunity you have been waiting for.
That goal you have been working your hardest to achieve.
That dream you took the leap of faith for.
Baby, it’s already yours!
Love you!♥️

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.♥️

Earlier, someone liked a tweet I posted nearly eight years ago. Not sure how old tweets pop up because I never seem to see them, but evidently someone does. Here’s the tweet.
X (formerly known as Twitter): June 21, 2016
Looking back over the past eight years, so many things happened that could have destroyed my spirit, made me give up, made me settle, made me lose faith, yet here I am. I am still standing and moving forward. As people say, I am so glad I don’t look like what I have been through. God is so good and merciful.
Not sure what prompted me to make that post. Sometimes I just post what I feel or hear. Either way, I see that someone needed that message today.
Here’s what I will add today. God already knows the outcome of our situations. He knew before we even knew there would be one. Our job is to rest in Him while He takes us through whatever we need to go through to get to the other side. As I mentioned before, there were plenty of things that could have taken me out, but I am still here. I am so grateful I didn’t give up or give in. Y’all, God is so good!
Listen, don’t give up. God’s got you! You will get through this. Right now I am hearing this song we used to sing in church (there are different variations) — “How I got over. How I got over. My soul looks back and wonder, how I got over.” Amen
Have a blessed day! Love you!♥️

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.
Wanted to add—
Do not let your current situation stop you from believing that you are already living the life you dreamed. It may not look like what you imagined; and that’s only because you have not arrived at that chapter yet. Keep going. Keep believing. Enjoy the journey. Before you know it you will see what you imagined. Hang in there!♥️

Happy Sunday, y’all!
Since I began posting twice or more a day, I have not had much to write about on Sundays. Sundays used to be my spill day. Now I share all week long. Maybe I need to redefine what I share on Sundays. Maybe I will make it a theme day. I don’t know. We have two Sundays left in 2023, which means I have a little over two weeks to decide if I am going to give you a different “Hello Sunday.” Since I am switching things up for Year50, I might as well switch it up too.
By the way, I will be 50 1/2 (smile) next Sunday! Will give you an update on how the past month and last six months have gone. Just know that God is still working on me. Baby, I feel like I have been in some kind of spiritual boot camp. I guess this is what a jubilee year actually feels like. It’s the part no one mentions.
Anyhoo… here is a little something I wrote in my journal entry on December 17, 2014, which is quite indicative of my oh so wonderful jubilee experience. Can’t you feel the sarcasm? But hey, it is my world, right? Don’t know why I expected different. Laughing
Journal Entry: December 17, 2014
Remember God works in the supernatural! Facts vs Faith. Choose faith!
Guess I was hyping myself up! Laughing. Most of my life I have chosen faith over facts. Yes, way before I had the relationship I now have with God. Doing so has always drove realists and pessimists crazy. Y’all, I cannot help it. It’s in me. Not saying I do not have doubts—because I do have doubts—but faith always win. Always! So why change now? Nah…won’t do it. Cannot afford to. I must continue to choose faith, even if it seems like Crazy Faith, as Pastor Mike Todd calls it.
This is all for now. Thank you for reading. I pray you have a lovely Sunday.
Be Blessed♥️

It’s YOUR DREAM! Be careful not to water down your dreams to fit someone else’s narrative or beliefs. It’s not about them. They have their own dreams. It’s about YOU. I wholeheartedly believe, if God gave you the dream, you can have it.♥️
Today, I can hear Yolanda Adams singing, Never Give Up. Can’t you? Smile
Listen, no matter how many stumbling blocks you encounter, keep going, keep believing, it will happen.
Be Blessed!♥️
