Obedience, That’s The Word

Shaun Bradford

I know I write a lot about obedience, but y’all, our obedience to God is sooooo important—so very important.

Obedience gets you through the though times. Obedience brings blessings you weren’t expecting. Obedience keeps you protected. God knows and sees things you don’t. Listen, be obedient to whatever He asks of you. You may not understand what He’s asking, or feel the need to follow through, but do. Trust Him. He’s looking out for you!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 22

Shaun Bradford

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

Life Is Interesting

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Today, I came across a quote by James Baldwin in my Facebook memories that made me think of a question I often ask myself– “How did I end up here?” Meaning, how did I end up in this space in time? Well, as James Baldwin’s quote suggests, all it takes is a millimeter of a shift, and our lives can change forever.

Although the James Baldwin quote refers to changes in the world, I can easily relate it to the personal changes that have happened to me over time. It only took one event, one experience, or one encounter for something inside me to shift. I can see it, now. I was no longer the person I was moments before that event occurred.

Y’all, life is interesting…

Side note: Just heard this, be careful of the spaces you enter and who you allow in your space. Some events and experiences are intentionally designed to alter your thoughts and behaviors. Whew!

Listen, we must stay prayed up and take God with us everywhere we go. Discernment and God’s covering are so necessary. If it doesn’t feel right, it’s not right—period, and we have to stop trying to make it feel right. There’s a distinct difference between fear or uncertainty about the unknown and feelings of unease. Uneasiness isn’t a good sign. RUN!!!

Okay… I had no idea this quote would lead me in this direction; however, here we are. Smile.

I believe I will end here. Thanks for reading. I pray you have an exceptionally blessed day.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
