Wait.
That’s the answer.
Be still and wait.
Yes, it’s uncomfortable.
Yes, you feel like you’re stagnant.
Yes, it seems like you could and should be doing more.
Yet, the answer is “Wait.”
So, wait.♥️
Love you,

Where’s Your Mind These Days?
Good Morning!
Honestly, I don’t have much more to add to what I wrote six years ago. All I can say is it’s true, your life will follow whatever dominates or preoccupies your mind. Change your mindset and your life will change.
Sooo…
Where’s your mind nowadays?
Definitely something worth assessing, right?
I shiver at the thought of waking up six years from now and being in the same place or headspace.
Don’t you?

My Purpose
Facebook Memory, August 11, 2022
“My purpose is God affirmed.🙌🏽 The world will always need more love, light, peace and positivity, and that’s exactly what I plan to give.♥️”
That’s my purpose. I didn’t choose it. It’s who I am.
Have you discovered your purpose? If so, did you choose it or did it choose you?
Hmmm…
Well, that’s all. Please continue to enjoy your day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
The Peace of God
Good Morning! While I was reading my journal entry from August 10, 2017, this particular statement stood out—
“I let it all go. I actually just gave up on it, and a peace came over me.”
This statement reminded me of the scripture I have on a note that’s been in my wallet since September 2014 (shared several blogs ago).
Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:7 NLT
At the time, I was going through a difficult time, financially. According to my journal entry, several bills were due and I didn’t have any money for gas; didn’t know how I would commute back and forth to work that week. When I tell you I was going through it! Just reading what I was going through seems surreal, as do so many other difficult times. When I write about gratitude and feeling truly blessed, it’s because I am no longer where I used to be. Y’all, I made it through. Didn’t think I would, but I did.
When I decided to release the stress and stop trying to solve everything, a sense of peace came over me. After a while, everything worked out, and I was able to move past the situation. A few months later, I started my first consulting business, and a few months after that, I received a promotion.
Over time, I have learned to let go of things that are beyond my control, things that only God can do. When I do, I always experience this indescribable peace. Not only is it a peace of mind, but my entire space becomes peaceful. It’s a peace that I can only describe as the peace of God.
I pray that you have a peaceful day. My daughter is coming to visit so I’m excited. Can’t wait to give her a hug and love on her for a while.🥰
Love you,
Shaun
Funny side note — Just thought of this as I wrote, “Love you.” A few days ago, I saw a post that said there’s a significant difference between saying “I love you” and “Love you.” It said “I love you” is like the Eiffel Tower and “Love you” is like a rundown power structure. Well, know this, my “Love you” is the finest of all structures in existence. It’s from the heart and comes with hugs, prayers, love, and a sprinkle of hope. Now, “I love you,” is only reserved for a select few. That’s the crème of the crème. Lol
Still Standing
Y’all, I am still here. Still standing!! When I tell you God is so wonderful. I can hear Marvin Sapp singing–
Here I am, I’m still standing
Here I am, after all I’ve been through
I’ve survived every toil, every snare
I’m alive, I’m alive
Here I am
“Here I Am” by Marvin Sapp
If you’re reading this, YOU are still here and still standing, too. Whatever was meant to destroy you, couldn’t. You’re STILL here!! Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Me. I’m doing the latter. I’m EXPECTING great things to happen!💃🏽♥️

This Morning’s Praise & Worship Song
Good Morning! Woke up singing Maurette Brown Clark’s song, “Just Want To Praise You.” Y’all, I don’t know about you but I never want to lose my praise. God’s been too good to me not to praise Him daily. The song says—
I just want to praise you
Forever and ever and ever
For all you’ve done, done for me
Blessings and glory and honor
They all belong to you
Thank you Jesus for blessing me!
Listen, I can’t say it enough, I am truly blessed. Even being able to write and connect with you is a blessing. As I have said many times before, I try not to take anything for granted. God really has been good to me.
That’s all I have for now. Wishing you a wonderful day. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Your One Step Equals God’s Ten
Wanted to share what I just heard in my spirit—
“When you take one step, God takes 10. You may not see anything happening but it is.”
Listen, I know I might sound crazy but soon after hearing this I went to watch an inspirational video. Well, before watching it I checked the date it was released. I do this from time to time to see if there’s a journal entry for that specific date. I like to see what I was doing or thinking at that moment. So, this particular video was dated almost two years ago, October 2022. Which was during the time my mom was in the hospital. Y’all, here’s what I wrote.
Okay… so a little backstory.
My mom had been in the hospital a little over two months. Around this time, we were waiting for her to be placed in a rehab facility. Every other day she was being told that she would probably leave the next day. The day before she actually left, they had prepared her to leave only to wait until the last minute to tell her she had to stay another night. I’m not sure if I wrote about her condition in previous posts, but she was suffering from early stages of dementia, plus she was in chronic pain, and she had lost almost all of her hearing. So she wasn’t in the best of moods and had become very aggressive. I had stayed with her night and day the entire time and I was so ready to leave. The next day (the day she actually left), I asked them not to tell her that she was leaving if they were not 100 percent sure. Well, they ignored my request and told her she would be transferred to the rehab facility (which was over an hour away) by noon. When I tell you she was watching that clock! Noon came and went. Two, three, four, and five o’clock came and went. Y’all, I can still remember how I felt that day. She was yelling and screaming at everyone, including me. I just wanted it all to be over. I prayed and made calls to everyone trying to get her moved. Around 8:00 PM that evening, the administrator of the receiving facility told me that they would accept her if she could make it there before midnight. The thing was, because she was bedridden and could not sit up, an ambulance had to transport her to the facility. I still remember her crying because 10:00 PM had come and she was still there. And I was crying right along with her. I felt so defeated. Around 11:00 PM I heard that still small voice say to dry my eyes and pack up my cellphone charger to leave. I felt too defeated to even second guess what I heard. I did as I was instructed. And as I wrote, not even five minutes later they were there to transport her to the rehab facility. They told me that they had been in touch with the rehab facility and were told they would admit her after midnight.
Anyhoo… I wrote all of this to say God confirmed my original message—
“When you take one step, God takes 10. You may not see anything happening but it is.”
Final word. Even though you don’t see anything happening, keep the faith; and when God instructs you to move, do it. Believe me, He has everything all planned out. He just needs you to trust Him and move.
Be blessed.♥️
