Let God Lead

Shaun Bradford

As I was scrolling through my Facebook memories, I saw a post from ten years ago that prompted me to see what I had written in my journal on February 26, 2015. Here’s how my entry began—

February 26, 2015, Shaun’s Journal Entry

“Lord please help me allow you to lead. Help me let you have total control over my life. I must admit giving up control is scary, but at this moment- tired, broke, and confused, I have no other choice.

Letting go and letting God! Lord please guide my footsteps today.”

I also wrote that I was listening to “Something About the Name Jesus.” Smiling. Smiling because I’m not where I used to be. Smiling because I made it through, and I definitely couldn’t have done it without reverencing Jesus. I’m truly blessed.

Allow God to guide your footsteps. He won’t lead you wrong.♥️

I love you always,

Shaun

I Still Believe

Shaun Bradford

Being reminded of my “Why” keeps me hopeful.

I hadn’t looked at all of my Facebook memories until moments ago. Six years ago, I created my social media platform, “Mississippi Thriving.” I posted my official welcome message in December of that year, so you may see me celebrate milestones in February and December.

Here’s what I wrote on this date in 2019 and 2020.

My nephews. Only two of my other babies. I have a lot of them.🥰

In the past six years, I have connected with so many wonderful people who share my same vision for a healthier, brighter, and thriving Mississippi. Although it may feel as if we’ll never see it happen in our lifetimes, I still believe it’s possible.

I must keep hope alive.♥️

Faith

I had the image below saved in my photos. It’s a simple reminder of the magnitude of faith.

All you need is a mustard seed size of faith, and mountains will move.♥️

I love you much,

Happy Love Day, Part 2

♥️

Not only are you loved, but YOU are love. Yes, you are one of the truest definitions of love. You were divinely created to be so. Believe me, God wouldn’t have it any other way. The way you selflessly give and pour into others is unmatched. Your heart is pure, and your kindness is genuine. When you smile, others feel it. When you say, “I love you,” you mean it.

Yes, YOU are love.

Love you,

Shaun

Now, look into the mirror and read it again.😘

Smiling From Ear To Ear

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

This morning I am smiling from ear to ear! Can’t you hear Beyoncé singing “Love On Top”? Well, I surely can. (Smile.)

Well… I’m not smiling because I finally got a man or won the lottery. Lol! Nope. I’m smiling because…….

Beyoncé won a Grammy for ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!!🌟🌟🌟

Aaaahhhhh!!!

Y’all, I can’t stop smiling!

Listen, this makes today’s Facebook memory even more special.

His timing is PERFECT!

Talk about beautiful. She waited patiently—for years. YEARS!!!

I am soooo happy for her!

Yesterday started off rough but ended up being a great day, and I intend to carry that same energy into today.

God is so good. I’m so very thankful He loves me.🙏🏽

I pray you have a wonderful day and a fabulously blessed week!♥️

Love you always,

Shaun
