Celebrating 1,500 Consecutive Days Of Posting

Shaun Bradford

Yes, today is Day 1,500 of nonstop posting!🎉

When I reached 1,400 days of posting, I mentioned that I wanted to do something special to commemorate my 1,500th day. So, I decided to create an Instagram account for Shaun’s Daily Inspiration.

For my 1,000th day, I created a YouTube channel for Shaun’s Daily Inspiration, which allowed me to incorporate music into my posts. However, I had to create Shorts to do so. With Instagram, I can add music to my posts without having to create a reel or story, and I love it! As you’ll see in the video below, I’ve also updated the look of my graphics.

Here’s a glimpse at Shaun’s Daily Inspiration on Instagram.

My Bio says: Releasing into the world everything I desire to receive back—love, hope, peace, kindness, and inspiration. Allowing God’s glory to shine through me.✨

As you can see, my new look is the overall look on the landing page. However, I also kept the old look (with my artwork)—those can be found under my “Tags.”

I usually share the same posts here on my blog. However, if you would like to hear the music I chose to accompany the posts, you can find it on Instagram.

I always say I absolutely love the way God loves me, and I do!! I was beyond excited when I discovered my 1,500th day of posting fell on the day before my birthday. Who knew?! What a beautiful gift to me. I am truly beyond blessed.🌺🥰

Handpicked By God

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

I pray you’re doing well.🌸

Here’s a message to get your day and week started.

You already know what you have been chosen to do. You have known this for ages, so what I am saying is nothing new.

God handpicked YOU, specifically, because YOU are the ONLY one who can do what you have been called to do. ONLY YOU!

So, stop running.

You’re not going to fail.

God is with you.

He’s got you!

Yes, YOU! You were chosen for this!

That’s all for now. I pray you have a fabulous week! May it be filled with lots of love—unconditional love, that is—peace, joy, happiness, and laughter.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Where’s Your Focus?

Shaun Bradford

Are you focused on the promise or the process?

Here are two posts I shared previously on this day.

Instagram Story: June 22, 2021

“Focus on the promise, not the process.”

Facebook Memory: June 22, 2019

Again, what has your focus—the promise or the process? I don’t know about you but the promise has my focus. The process is always going to do what it does. It’s called life. My advice is to stay focused on the promise.♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Good Morning☀️

Happy Self-Love Saturday!💗

I pray that you are doing well.🌸

At this moment, I’m singing “Blessings (On Me)” by Theresa Phondo. The song says—

“Blessings on blessings on me. Blessings on blessings on me. Everywhere I go they’ll be—blessings on blessings on me. I can feel it.”

Yes, I can feel it!

Beyond Blessed🌺

And the countdown continues! THREE DAYS until Year52!🎉

Y’all, I am so grateful for life. I know I say this all the time, but I really don’t take my life for granted. I am so very grateful that I am still here and I’m healthy. I’m thankful for the love and kindness that surrounds me daily. I’m thankful for my babies, family, and friends. God, thank You for blessing me.

I pray that you have a beautiful self-love Saturday. Be sure to do something extra special for yourself, even if it’s just relaxing.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 105

Shaun Bradford

Facebook Memory: June 19, 2019

During my adulthood, I have taken quite a few leaps of faith, some small and some life-changing. With each leap came challenges; however, all were so worth taking.

Six years ago, I mentioned that I took leaps while afraid. Well, baby, on this side of 50, nothing seems to frighten me—not sure if that’s a good or bad thing😅—I’m just out here going with the flow. I’m not sure what my next leap will be, but I do know that whatever it is, I’m doing it fearlessly because I know from years of experience that God will always be with me.♥️

I’m Blessed, Yes

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

I pray you’re doing well.🌸

Blessed!🥰

I woke up this morning singing Charlie Wilson’s song, “I’m Blessed.” The song says—

“Ask me how I’m doing, I’m blessed, yes. Living every moment, no regrets. Smile upon my face, I’m like, oh yes, I’m blessed, yes. I’m blessed, yes. I’m blessed!”

Yesss… I am so very blessed. I am so grateful for God’s love, mercy, and grace. There’s nothing like it. Amen

Y’all, only FIVE days until my birthday!!🎉😄 I’m so excited! I’m even more excited because I get to see my baby girl today!!😆 Let the festivities begin! Year52 is loading!

I pray you have the greatest day yet! May it be filled with love, joy, peace, and laughter. You deserve it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

**Fun fact: Many, many moons ago, when I was a little girl living in Kansas, we belonged to the same church as Charlie Wilson’s sister, Loretta. She had four or five boys and I had a crush on one. Those were the days. Good memories!

My Journey With God, No. 104

Shaun Bradford

A few months ago, one of our fellow bloggers, Wynne Leon, shared a quote of questions by Henri Nouwen. I saved that quote because it resonated with my purpose of allowing God’s glory to shine through me. Every day, I strive to answer these questions, whether through my blog posts, posts on other social media platforms, or personal interactions.

Henri Nouwen’s Questions

Did I love?

Did I offer peace today?

Did I bring a smile to someone’s face?

Did I say words of healing?

Did I let go of my anger and resentment?

Did I forgive?

I pray that God’s glory is shining through me as I answer each question. If not, God, please guide me in doing so. Amen♥️

The Power Of Gratitude

Shaun Bradford

Facebook Memory: June 18, 2019

As I mentioned six years ago, “Never underestimate the power of gratitude.” There is something about gratitude that brings peace. The kind of peace that surpasses all understanding. Yes, that God peace. (Philippians 4:7)

Always, always, always remain grateful.♥️

I love you much,

Shaun

Who Knows You Better Than Yourself?

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

How are you?

I pray you are doing well.🌸

Facebook Memory: June 18, 2022

Besides God, who knows you better than YOU? The answer is “No one.” Always remember, you control the pen to your life’s story. As you evolve, your story evolves. Feel free to revise it as you grow—it’s YOUR story.

That’s all for now. I pray you have a wonderfully blessed day. May it be filled with an abundance of love, joy, peace, and laughter. You deserve it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

**Six more days!!🥰🎉 Year52 is loading…

An Afternoon Reminder

Shaun Bradford

You don’t always have to live life on ten for it to be meaningful. Mellow moments are just as important and necessary. Be sure to find a nice balance between the two.

I hope you’re enjoying your day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun
