Today’s a new day! Be sure to leave yesterday’s worries, fears, hurts, and disappointments behind. Start today with a fresh mind and open heart, expecting great things to happen. Remember, God is still in control.
I pray this week brings you peace and clarity. May God’s love and grace surround you. Remain open to new ideas and opportunities that align with God’s divine purpose for your life. Remember, more of God and less of you. It’s all about God andHis glory, not ours.♥️
Twenty-six (almost 27) years ago, I wrote the following in my journal—
“When I blew out my candles, I made a simple wish and that was to be happy for the next 25 years, and even happier afterwards.”
Well…
Five years ago, I asked myself if I was fulfilling that wish. The answer to that question back then (in 2020), and still is to this day, is “Yes.” Overall, my life is much happier than when I was 25. In 1998, I had so much going on. I was a single mom living abroad with a little one while trying to figure out life for us both. Then, a few months later, my mom had an incident (never found out what happened) that caused her to be paralyzed (paraplegia) for the rest of her life.
Don’t get me wrong. Today, every day isn’t all smiles and laughter; however, I’m never depressed. I was really depressed back then. After making my wish on my 25th birthday, I tried my best to make myself happy. I had been to therapy before, so I knew how to cope. However, it wasn’t until God stepped in and I began allowing Him to lead that I became truly happy. Y’all, God is so good. True happiness cannot be created. It happens organically and comes from within. When I celebrate life by saying, “I made it!” this is what I mean.
I’m forever grateful for God’s love, mercy, and grace. Y’all, I‘m blessed.♥️ ~ Shaun
Thanking God for His love, mercy, and grace. For His covering and guidance. For protecting me from hurts and harm. For keeping my family safe and healthy.
God, I thank you.🙏🏽

There’s so much happening at the moment. We must remember that what affects one affects all.
I pray you’re having a wonderful day. May God continue to bless and keep you in his care. Stay covered.♥️
You are enough. Yes, YOU! God knew who you would be at this very moment in time. Accept His grace and rest in the fact that you are enough as you are.♥️
Sometimes we miss God’s glory because we’re looking for something grand. Be sure to keep your eyes open for the small, even tiniest, of His glory. It’s all around you. Be sure not to miss it!♥️
