Life is Lifing and I’m Kinda in My Feelings
Many of my colleagues are in Denver right now at our national conference, and me… I’m here at home. That used to be my thing. I loved going to our conferences and meeting and interacting with so many people. Now, I’m at home alone watching the excitement via social media. It’s times like these that make me want throw in the towel and go back to life as it was. When I didn’t have to work so hard. Where everything was predictable and the money was steady. But nooo! In Shaun true fashion, I had to choose the adventure, the challenge! Ugh!! Why am I like this?!!? Now look at me! While everyone is having fun, I’m sitting here in this life I created with this crazy notion that I am destined for so much more. Even got my babies believing it.
I know… this too shall pass.
On another note, when I reached around 830 days of continuous posting, I decided to challenge myself to post two posts daily. Sometimes I post more but two is my goal. Not sure if I will challenge myself to post more when I hit 1000 days. Honestly, I’m excited to see what I’ll do after 1000. I’m pretty sure I’ll come up with something special.
Anyhoo… that’s all I had. Just felt like venting. I really do miss being around my colleagues. I know that the season I am in is only temporary but sometimes it feels like it’s going to last forever. Learning to be patient while God continues to work on me, for me, and through me. I’m so glad He loves me.
Wishing you a blessed night.
Take Care!♥️

They Say Everything Happens for a Reason
As I mentioned a few days ago, Zhané’s, “For A Reason,” used to be one of those songs I couldn’t shake for a while. Four years ago, it seemed like that particular song and the message, “Everything happens for a reason,” was showing up everywhere.
October 5th…
October 5, 2019 was my brother’s 46th and final birthday. They say time heals, but the pain of his death still stings. It doesn’t hurt as bad as it used to but it still hurts. A few days after his birthday my mom told me that my uncle, who is now running for a state office, had been rushed to the hospital. All I kept thinking was he couldn’t die. We were the same age and basically grew up like siblings. I said I couldn’t imagine life without him. Little did I know my brother was also sick and was about to pass away. Life…
Here’s a Facebook memory from October 5, 2019. Talk about eerie.
Second message this week about everything happens for a reason. So I must make it today’s social media find. Rest assured God’s got you. He already has everything worked out. Just trust Him. Believe me, I know it’s easier said than done, but it’s something we must learn to do. Y’all have a blessed day.🙏🏽♥️
Today would have been my brother’s 50th birthday. Life without him just isn’t the same. I miss him.
Remember Who You Are
Today has been somewhat of a long day. A long, good day. Today I witnessed God in action. I could see him working. Y’all know I love watching Him work. Smile. Listen, He really is amazing.
Before I say good night, allow me to leave you with this—remember who you are and whose you are. No matter where you go, who you’re with, what you’re doing—remember who you are and whose you are.
Life is changing. Atmospheres are shifting. Spaces no longer look or feel familiar. Stay grounded. Stay centered. Stay prayed up. Continue allowing God to lead. If it doesn’t feel right, listen to your gut because it’s not right. Wishing you a peaceful night.
Good Night♥️

This Process is Processing
Facebook Memory: October 4, 2022
Where you begin rarely looks like what you envisioned. Give yourself space, time and grace to grow. Don’t give up. You’ll get there!♥️
On another note, “Savior More Than Life,” by Kirk Franklin and The Family is still on repeat in my head. It’s been like this for days now. I can listen to music all day but once I turn it off, this song pops back up. Is my spirit on auto-worship mode and this is its worship song? Right now I am hearing that I just need to lean into God a little more as if a protection mode has been activated. Whew, Lord. I’m listening.
Well, this is how my day has started. As I stated above, growth is a process and I am still growing. Some days I have no idea if I am still in seed form or if my leaves are finally growing. When will my flowers begin budding? Sighing. Only time and life will tell. Until then, I guess I will lean into God a little more—get all comfy—and allow Him to love on me. Y’all have a wonderful day.
Love you!♥️

The Growing Place *UPDATED
Do not be discouraged. This is not where you are meant to stay. God is growing and preparing you for where you are going.♥️ ~ Shaun
Had to come back and add an update. Yesterday, I came across this exact sermon Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts had preached in Denver. All I could do was smile and shed a few tears. What if she would have given up after 2018? Just think, everything that transpired over the last year would not have happened.
Y’ALL!!! We have to keep going. I have to keep going. I know deep down there is sooooo much more God has planned for me. This is not where my story ends. Listen, I cannot afford to give up, and neither can you!! We must keep growing. Love you!
Hello October! (Hello Sunday)
Hello October!
October means fall is officially here and the holiday season is just around the corner. It also means the end of the year is near. I pray that you have accomplished most of what you set out to accomplish this year or you are a least working on it. Honestly, I am not even sure what I said I would work towards this year. Let me check and see….
I checked. Smiling. Not even sure how it’s happened—this has been one crazy year—but I am doing exactly what I set out to do. The only answer I have is “It’s ALL God!”. When God leads, even when we are not completely focused, He’s focused. He always gets us where we need to be. If you didn’t already know that’s called love, and I am soooo glad He loves me.
I pray everything is working out as you planned. Maybe it doesn’t look exactly like you envisioned; however, when you really look at how things are going, you know it’s actually going as planned. Remember to look beyond the superficial. Yeah… I bet you are right on track.
Wishing you a glorious day! Love you.♥️ ~ Shaun
