Shhh…

I had to laugh when this thought came to mind because I do tend to over share. However, I don’t share everything. Laughing

Here’s what I learned while growing up, a lesson that was reinforced while I was in the military. We make our best moves when we’re silent. Silence and strategy matters. Now, this doesn’t mean I got something cooking.😏😄 I’m just saying everything doesn’t need to be shared.

On a serious note, though—which is something I learned from being too open—not every friendly person is your friend, and not everyone interested in what you’re doing has your best interests at heart. So it’s best to keep some things to yourself. Especially, the things that are dear and close to your heart.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Discernment matters. Be sure to listen to that still small voice.

To Receive Or Not To Receive… It’s God’s Call

November 19, 2024 Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Yesterday, I came to the conclusion that although I ask and believe, not everything is meant to be received or received when asked. It’s either not the right time or simply not meant to happen. That was my thought yesterday.

My confirmation…

This morning, my Facebook memories were filled with posts about a time when I asked for something, and the following week, I received what I had asked for. Happened just that quick! And this wasn’t anything small. This one was pretty big. Honestly, I am still in awe of how it just happened. It was like God handed me my request on a platter. And the most beautiful part is that I knew He did it for me because of how things happened. Y’all, He’s so smooth. Smiling

Today’s memory only confirms my conclusion from yesterday—it is either about timing or not meant to happen. I accept both. Whatever happens will happen, and whatever doesn’t won’t. Either way, I am at peace. I have seen God work before, so I honor His decisions.

Y’all, I’m so thankful for God’s love. He’s so amazing. I am beyond blessed.🥰

I pray you have a wonderful day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 20

November 18, 2024 Shaun Bradford

This morning when I heard, “This is bigger than you,” I thought it was meant for me to share as one of today’s posts. So I created a graphic for the message and shared it (see It’s Greater Than You).

Well, I just opened my journal and all I had written was “This is bigger than you.” When I tell you I got chills! Listen, I don’t know what God is doing, but whatever it is it’s bigger than me.

Whew! Chillz!!

Praise The Lord

November 18, 2024November 18, 2024 Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Since 2020, I have begun my day with reading Psalm 113. It all started when my friend Tara sent me a scripture from this chapter, which led me to read the entire chapter. I’ve been reading it every morning since.

Here is what I wrote—

“Before I forget, this morning’s scripture from Tara came from Psalm 113. I was led to read the entire chapter. This chapter matches what I am feeling at the moment. What I was feeling last night. It begins with “Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord…” Whew!”

Praise the Lord, y’all!

I pray you have a lovely day and beautiful week.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Psalm 113 (NIV)

1. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, you his servants; praise the name of the Lord.

2. Let the name of the Lord be praised, both now and forevermore.

3. From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.

4. The Lord is exalted over all the nations, his glory above the heavens.

5. Who is like the Lord our God, the One who sits enthroned on high,

6. who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth?

7. He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap;

8. he seats them with princes, with the princes of his people.

9. He settles the childless [barren] woman in her home as a happy mother of children. Praise the Lord.

Peaceful Moments

November 16, 2024 Shaun Bradford

Lately, I have been more intentional about creating peaceful moments. Surrendering to God and allowing Him to work freely has been the most effective. Also, setting boundaries has helped.

Y’all, we only have one life—one that’s so precious and short. We must take care of ourselves on all levels. Remember, our emotional, mental, and spiritual health is just as important as our physical health.

Wishing you peace, love, and great health. Take care of yourself.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
