Today, I am soaking up every ounce of God’s goodness. I am taking in every smile, positive interaction, fond memory, and ounce of love I receive and holding them closely. I’m living in this moment, the here and now.
Thank You, God, for all Your blessings. Thank You for giving me life and surrounding me with Your love. Thank You for covering me with Your peace, protection, mercy, and grace. All honor, praise, and glory belongs to You. Amen
Above beyond blessed.🌺
I pray that you have one of the most amazing self-love Saturdays yet. Be sure to disconnect from the negative and surround yourself with positive thoughts and energy, only. Your mind, heart, soul, and spirit will thank you.♥️
I love you,
Shaun
**This may or may not be my only post for today. Today, I’m just vibing with the flow of life. Take care.🌸
As I said in 2019, God is always moving, and I’m moving with Him. Sometimes I wish I knew where He was taking me or what was ahead. Wouldn’t life flow smoother if I did? But then, sometimes I say, “God, surprise me!”
Today, I’m at the point where I am sitting back and watching Him work. Wherever He takes me, He takes me. Whatever lies ahead will be. No matter what, I am certain that wherever I land, He will be with me, He’ll never leave me, and everything will work out in my favor because He loves me.
Where’s your focus? Is it on the storm or is it on God?
If you focus on the storm, chaos, or problems around you, you will never find the peace you seek. You have to intentionally shift your focus to God. That’s where you will find peace.
As many of us have found, shifting our focus is not always easy, especially when problems seem to be coming from every direction. However, when we take a moment to calm ourselves and pray, we begin to feel the peace of God ease in. Eventually, we find ourselves at peace.
I pray you have found peace, despite the storms.♥️
I slept in again! Maybe my body is trying to tell me something. Hmmm… I guess it’s time to practice what I preach and focus more on self-care. Even though I still feel like I’m in my 20s mentally, the reality is I’m getting older. And if I want to see a healthy 100, I need to start making changes now. Which means, I must figure out how to manage my first post. I love writing when I wake up. I always want my “Good Morning” to be an actual first of the day greeting. Anyhoo… we shall see what I decide to do.
On another note, I woke up singing Kirk Franklin and the Family’s song, “Let Me Touch You.” The song says—
When I’m down Let me touch You When I’m lonely Let me touch You When I’m discouraged Let me touch You Like I never have before Lord, I need You more and more, Jesus Let me touch You and see if You are real
Such a powerful song! I don’t have to touch Jesus to know that He’s real. I know He’s real. However, lately, I’ve been asking God to show me Himself. I see him in the tiniest of things, but I want to see Him in bigger things where I can say, “Baby, THAT WAS GOD!!!!” And I don’t want it to come in the “I was about to get hit by a car and God saved me” or “I was on my deathbed and God brought me back to life” way. In other words, I don’t want to experience a tragedy for me to say, “That was God!”. No, I want to see Him while I enjoy life.
I thought today’s Facebook memory from three years ago (June 6, 2022) went well with the rest of the post, so I decided to share it here instead of posting it later. Y’all, that rose was perfect. I received it at an event I attended several years ago. The theme of the event was “Beauty for Ashes.”
Now, don’t get me wrong. I am extremely grateful for everything I have and for the way God continuously blesses and loves me. But I desire to see more of Him. And I don’t believe there’s anything wrong with me asking that of Him. I am His child, right?
Okay… I believe I have written enough. I don’t want to publish this any later than I already am. I pray you have a beautiful day and weekend. May they be filled with love, joy, peace, and laughter.♥️
I love you,
Shaun
**I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t mention that my fav has another new movie streaming on Netflix! It’s called Tyler Perry’s STRAW, starring Taraji P. Henson, Teyana Taylor, and Sherri Shepherd. I can’t wait to watch it. Check it out!
