My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Good Morning!☀️
My affirmation for today is—
I have the patience and capacity to wait for God’s promises. Everything will happen at its appointed time. Trusting God.
I pray you have a blessed day and wonderful Veterans Day weekend!🇺🇸
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
Sometimes, you have to be your own hype woman (man). You have to pump yourself up so well that whatever’s happening around you seems so small and insignificant that you can tune it out. Or that you can take on any and everything that comes your way because you know the outcome will be great.
Today, I’m singing “The Best Is Yet To Come,” trying to hype myself up. In the memory below, I wrote, “Believe me, you ain’t seen nothing yet!” Well, that was me hyping myself up, and honestly, it probably worked. However, today, I’m not feeling it. Whew! I’m not feeling it at all. Y’all, I’m going to need a minute to process what’s happened over the past couple of days.
Yeah… I need time to process this. I can’t believe all our progress as a society is about to be ripped away. All the work women fought for to have our voices heard and respected as equal—gone. All the progress we’ve made since slavery and the Civil Rights movement—gone. Religious freedoms—gone. Global respect—gone. And people are celebrating.
Yeah… I’m going to need a minute. I cannot allow my own hope and optimism to die like everything else. I cannot and will not allow my heart to become hard because love is everything to me. What is the world without it? So, this will probably be my only post for today. I need to connect with God. I don’t know or understand what He’s doing, but I still trust Him. However, right now, my heart hurts.
Wishing you a wonderful day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
Forward is the only way to go.
Eyes forward.
Mind forward.
Thoughts forward.
Moving forward.
Yes, forward is the only way to go.
Praying you have a beautifully, blessed day.♥️
Love you,

We may not always understand what God is doing or why He has us go through certain things. However, I have learned that, at times, He gives us glimpses of possible answers. Yesterday, I received one of those glimpses. It was a glimpse of a promise, of a dream God had given me ages ago. All He ever asked of me was to trust Him completely, be obedient, and follow His lead; and I did—not always perfectly, but did (and I’m still doing).
Yes, yesterday, I received a much-needed glimpse at what God is doing and where He’s taking me. Of course, I’m not privy to the entire picture (I’ve learned to accept this), but what I see is enough to let me know I am heading in the right direction and that my dream is still intact.
Today, I am thankful for connections I made decades ago that have somehow come full circle (one of the speakers from yesterday’s event was someone I met during undergrad over 20 years ago). Thankful for recent connections (made within the past few months) that have encouraged and inspired me to push beyond my limits. Everything that has happened has been done in a way only God knew I would undoubtedly receive—from the people He placed in my path to the opportunities I have been given. I am forever amazed at how well He knows me! I know…He’s God. Smile
Y’all, I can’t stress it enough how I really did need for yesterday to happen, and to happen the way that it did. Even what I considered hiccups, needed to happen.
I just love the way God loves me.🥰
Thank you so much for reading and following my journey to becoming the person God’s created me to be. I pray you have a wonderful Sunday and extraordinary week!♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
As I suggested four years ago, one of the truest test of our faith is our ability to stay focused on God (His guidance is best) when our current situation doesn’t match our dreams or vision. My advice is keep your blinders on at all times… ALL times. Blinders will keep you from becoming distracted by what’s happening around you, as well as prevent unnecessary delays. Listen, I don’t know about you but I’m tired of the delays, especially when they are very much preventable.
From here on, eyes forward and blinders on. God has so many wonderful things planned for you, but you must stay focused.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
“We are all connected” is the hashtag I used with my caption about purpose on November 1, 2022. Here’s that caption—
Facebook Memory: November 1, 2022
“Purpose is not self-centered or self-serving. Purpose is so much greater than us.
I believe our true purpose in life is to fulfill another’s need. There’s something that we provide – different things for different people – that allows them to fulfill their purpose.”
Embrace your purpose. It’s so much bigger than you!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
