Be Grateful

Singing Walter Hawkins’ “Be Grateful.” The song says (Lyrics: MusixMatch)—

God has not promised me sunshine
That’s not the way it’s supposed to be
But a little rain mixed with God’s sunshine
A little pain, makes me appreciate the good times

Be grateful, be grateful

God desires to feel your longings
Every pain that you feel, He feels them
Just like you, but He can’t afford to make you feel only good
Then you can’t appreciate the good times

Be grateful, be grateful, be grateful
Because there’s someone else who’s worser than you, be grateful
Because there’s someone else who’d love to be in your shoes
Be grateful, God said it would never, never forsake you
Be grateful


The rain definitely makes me appreciate the sunshine.

Grateful and blessed.♥️

Happy Feelings

On this date eight years ago, I was listening to “Happy Feelin’s” by Frankie Beverly and MAZE—

Happy feelin’s in the air
Touching people everywhere
Plenty love and everything
Listen to the people sing, ooh

Singing—“Feel that happy feelin’”

God is good.

Praying your day has been good thus far. Enjoy the rest!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Blessings Flow When We Pour

Good Morning!☀️

Our gifts were never meant for us to keep to ourselves. They were always meant to be shared with others.

Blessings flow our way and to others when we pour into others. Keep pouring.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Joy Comes In The Morning Time

The song of the hour is “Cry On” by Commissioned. The song says (Lyrics: Genius.com)—

When your burdens seem to weigh you down
Or the road, it seems too far to carry on
Just look to the hills, you will find your help
Whence cometh from the Lord, hold on
Even when you feel you can’t go on
(Even if you have to moan)
Let your soul cry out to the Lord

Cry on
God understands your tears
He knows how much that you can bear
Faintest cry He’ll hear
Cry on
When there’s nothing else to say
Soon He’ll wipe all your tears away

It ends with…

Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning time
(The comfort in knowing)
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning time
Joy comes in the morning time

Amen.

God is good.


Just had to get the song out of my head and into the atmosphere. Wishing you a wonderful evening.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

This Is Peace

Peace is—

Trusting God.
Allowing God to lead.
Knowing God always keeps His promises.
Resting in God’s love.

Yes… This is peace.♥️

This Morning’s Song

Conquerors” by Kirk Franklin is the song that’s currently playing in my head. Y’all, we are conquerors! God did not create us to live defeated.

The song says—

“We ran the race. We kept the fight. We shed our blood for what was right. We carried our cross through storm and rain. Because of Christ now we can say—We are conquerors, conquerors.”

Listen, hold your head up and keep pushing forward. YOU are a conqueror!♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 49

It’s time.

Been feeling Trent Shelton’s message more and more lately. I guess you could say that’s what these past 30 years (since the knowledge of my firstborn’s conception) have been—me living in survival mode. Now, it’s time to thrive.♥️ ~Shaun

It’s Who You Are

You are blessed, chosen, and loved. There’s no way around it, and you can’t run from it. It’s who you are.

You’re God’s child!

God chose to bless and love you. Yes…YOU. So, let Him.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
