My Fav

Shaun Bradford

Listen!! Let me brag on my fav, Mr. Tyler Perry!! Gotta give him his roses!🌹

I have watched every movie, show, and play he’s created (yes…I’m a fan—Lol), but this last movie, STRAW, has to be one of my favorite movies yet! I love his other movies, but this one pulled at my heartstrings. Whew! Y’all know I love my babies, and this one was about a mother’s love for her daughter. Didn’t know I would cry as much as I did. I felt Janiyah’s (Taraji P. Henson—the mother and main character) pain. It was the pain of a mother not being able to properly provide for her baby. It’s a pain I know all too well. Not only personally, but also from watching my mom struggle when we were kids.

And, that ending!

Whew!!!

Y’all, I lost it at the end!

Phenomenal acting by Taraji P. Henson, Sherri Shepherd, and Teyana Taylor. They did their thing!! Queens!

And while watching Straw, I was also watching clips from the red carpet premiere of his new BET+ series that’s coming out next week, “Divorced Sistas.” Y’all already know I’m watching it!!

Listen, besides watching God work, I absolutely love watching Tyler Perry work. Y’all, he’s making dreams come true. To me, it’s his way of giving back, and I’m here for it!

I guess I’ll go to sleep now, but honestly, I’m too hyped to go to sleep.

God is good.

Good night, y’all!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Strength vs God’s Strength

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

How are you?

I hope and pray you’re doing well.🌸

Philippians 4:12–13

12. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

13. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

The song I’m hearing as I write is Whitney Houston’s “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength.” The song says—

I thought I’d never make it through
I had no hope to hold on to, I
I thought I would break

I didn’t know my own strength
And I crashed down, and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn’t know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour
My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up
Hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn’t know my own strength

I thought I’d never find my way
I thought I’d never lift that weight
I thought I would break

I didn’t know my own strength…

Lyrics: LyricFind

You know how sometimes you need a release and don’t know you need one. Well, I guess that time is now because the tears are flowing. I have no idea where they’re coming from. At this moment, I’m exhaling and leaning on God’s strength. I’ve been leaning on my strength for much too long and I’m tired. It’s funny because I hadn’t realized that I was doing it. I thought I was relying on God’s strength, but for a while it’s been mine. Today, I’m letting go. I’m releasing everything into God’s hands. Amen

Whose strength are you relying on? Yours or God’s?

I pray it’s God’s. Rest in Him and let Him be your strength.

I pray you have an exceptionally blessed day. May God grant you peace, love, and joy.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

The quote is true. Grace will take you places hustling can’t. I’m so grateful to be covered by God’s grace. So grateful for the doors God’s grace has opened and is opening.
