Enjoying Life

Last night I shared how the song, “Shower Me With Your Love,” randomly started playing in my head. I hadn’t heard it in years, probably decades. That’s not a song that people just play everyday. Well, after that song ended, the next was “I Do” by my favs, Bell Biv Devoe (BBD), which was followed by “Smile Again,” and then Jodeci’s “Forever My Lady” and “Stay.” When I tell you I felt like a teenager/young adult in love. Those were the days! Then, just a little while ago, I saw that Whitney Houston’s “How Will I know” was released on this day in 1985.

Listen, I just love my life!! Despite the craziness, love is beautiful and music is life. I’m sooooo loving this space I’m in.

God is good.

Beyond Blessed♥️

My Journey With God, No. 22

Singing— “Praise is what I do, ’cause I owe it all to You.”

I’m praising God on this beautiful Thursday morning. I’m so grateful to be alive, healthy, and blessed. And guess what?! I’m still here! Yessss, I’m still here! Not only am I still here physically, but I’m still here mentally and spiritually. What a blessing!

Here are a few verses from William Murphy’s song, “Praise Is What I Do.” Source: Musixmatch

Praise is what I do
When I wanna be close to You
I lift my hands in praise
Praise is who I am
I will praise Him while I can
I’ll bless You at all times

I vow to praise You
Through the good and the bad
I’ll praise You
Whether happy or sad
I’ll praise You
In all that I go through
Because praise is what I do
‘Cause I owe it all to You

Praise is what I do
Even when I’m going through
I’ve learned to worship You
No my circumstance
Doesn’t even stand a chance
My praise outweighs the bad

I vow to praise You
Through the good and the bad
I’ll praise You
Whether happy or sad
I’ll praise You
In all that I go through
Because praise is what I do
‘Cause I owe it all to You


God is so good.♥️ ~Shaun

You’re Already Prepared & Equipped

Grateful🙏🏽

I shared the message above weeks after taking my second major leap (April 2021). My first leap was joining the Air Force—both decisions were spontaneous and life-changing. Before the second leap, God assured me that I was covered and had everything I needed to create the life I desired. It took me a minute to grasp that I really had everything I needed. Well, today, I realize that I do.

Listen, don’t wait to start! You are already equipped and prepared to begin creating the life you desire, now!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

The Ride Goes On

Good Morning!☀️

Saw the following post on my Facebook feed this morning and decided to share.

This thing called life is very interesting and so unpredictable. There’s always something going on or some emotion we’re experiencing. We’re never just here. Even while meditating or sleeping, something is still happening. So, since we’re still alive, let’s make the most of this ride.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Shhh…

I had to laugh when this thought came to mind because I do tend to over share. However, I don’t share everything. Laughing

Here’s what I learned while growing up, a lesson that was reinforced while I was in the military. We make our best moves when we’re silent. Silence and strategy matters. Now, this doesn’t mean I got something cooking.😏😄 I’m just saying everything doesn’t need to be shared.

On a serious note, though—which is something I learned from being too open—not every friendly person is your friend, and not everyone interested in what you’re doing has your best interests at heart. So it’s best to keep some things to yourself. Especially, the things that are dear and close to your heart.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Discernment matters. Be sure to listen to that still small voice.
