My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
This message is for you. Yes, YOU!
You are loved. So very loved and appreciated. There’s absolutely none like you. As they say, when God made you He broke the mold. You are different because God created you to be so. You were never meant to fit in but to always stand out and SHINE. Embrace it!
There is only one YOU.
One beautifully, brilliant YOU.
And…
I love you!♥️
Shaun
Resting in God’s love is where you will find peace, love, joy, and contentment.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Side Note: The song “Running Back to You” by Commissioned is playing over and over in my head, so you know I must share it. The message is—It’s time to stop running and find rest in God.♥️
Singing—
“I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Amen
Never forget the goodness of God. Always keep it close and dear to your heart, and allow it to surround and comfort you. ♥️
Love you,
Shaun
A couple of years ago, when I shared my post “Miracles Happen Every Day” as an Instagram story, I shared it with Luther Vandross’ “Little Miracles (Happen Every Day).” I won’t share all of the lyrics, but here are a few words of the song—
“First thing I know, God is love. The next thing would be, He loves me.🥰 Sometimes I’m tired of waiting for a thing or someone. Then I stop and see what He’s done and I know everything will come.”
Beautiful, right?!
I miss Luther.
Here’s the video and link to the song, if you’d like to listen.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Side note: As I was adding tags to this post, I tagged the word “lover”—my first time adding the tag. Hadn’t even considered it before. But that’s who I am. I am a lover. I can’t help but love. It’s who God created me to be.🥰
Good Morning☀️
While watching “The Shack,” a movie about faith, forgiveness, hope, and belief, I kept hearing the song “I Believe” by Marvin Sapp.
The song says (Lyrics: MusixMatch)—
I remember the day
I gave my heart to You, Lord;
You told me if I’d (trust Ya),
You would never (leave me),
You said You’ll always be there.
Even though I’ve never seen Your face,
I know Your presence is real.
You told me if I would (seek Ya),
I would always (find Ya);
You’re just a prayer away,
that’s what I believe…
I believe what You told me,
I believe Your word is true.
I believe in Your promises, yeah, yeah.
I believe that You’ll come through.
You said that You would
never leave me nor forsake me
if I keep me mind stayed on Thee.
You told me You would (bless me)
If I would live (for Ya),
You said You would supply my every need;
that’s what I believe…
I believe what You told me,
I believe Your word is true.
I believe in Your promises, yeah, yeah.
I believe that You’ll come through.
You said that You would
keep me in (perfect peace)
if I keep my mind (stayed on Thee).
You told me that You would give me the life
of my heart if I would just (heart’s desire),
if I’d never lie.
I believe what You told me,
I believe Your word is true.
I believe in Your promises, yeah, yeah.
I believe that You’ll come through.
Your word is true,
believe, come through,
I believe.
I believe
Does anybody out there believe in God?
Like in the movie, just the mere presence of God makes me believe. He is the Great I Am. There is no other like Him. I can’t say it enough, His love, mercy, grace, and kindness are unmatched. I am so very grateful He loves me.
So, yes, I believe.
How about you? Do YOU believe?
If you have never seen the movie “The Shack,” I highly recommend it. It’s on Netflix right now. I believe you will truly enjoy it.
Praying you have a beautifully blessed Sunday.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Re-reading Christy Nockels’ “The Life I Long For: Learning to Live from a Heart of Rest” has been more about revisiting my reflection notes at the end of each chapter than actually reading the book. Here’s one about me trying to maintain a balance between pursuing my dreams and staying present (February 2022)—
Balance. Is there such a thing as balance? Either you’re working towards something or you’re enjoying the moment. Seems as if doing both is impossible.
That was written three years ago, written before I finished the book. By the time I finished it, I had found that balance. I discovered I could do both—actively pursue my dreams and stay present. The catch was, and still is, God has to be the center of it all. I cannot live the life I desire without Him being so. When I place myself in the center and try to do things from my own efforts, that’s when I feel off balance. And that’s also when God gently reminds me that He’s in control. Yes, HE is in control. Smiling
Y’all, God is so good. I just can’t express it enough how grateful I am that He loves me. I am so blessed.
Anyhoo… Let me go to sleep.♥️ ~Shaun
It’s Shaun’s World
