Beauty for Ashes

Hello Sunday
On this date 30 years ago, I embarked upon a journey that would change my life forever. Never in a million years did I imagine I would join the military. Never! It was one of many spontaneous leaps I would make over the past 30 years. Y’all, I am beyond grateful that I took that leap.
Thirty years…
Today I feel as if I’m embarking on another journey. Not sure where the next 30 years will take me; however, I know they will be just as adventurous. Also, I would like to note that a few thing’s have changed since 1992. I’m finally at peace. I know who I am and Whose I am. And I’m no longer afraid. God is good.
Here’s to the next 30 years and beyond! Speaking nothing but blessings over my life. Amen
Y’all enjoy your day!

Wednesday Writings
Hello June! Oh how I’ve missed you.
Y’all, it’s my birthday month and the final year of my 40s. All I can say is, WHAT A RIDE! Y’all, if my 40s were a movie, it would win Oscars in multiple categories. Like.. for real! Talk about one wonderfully, crazy decade! If someone would have told me my 40s were going to be wild, I would’ve laughed my head off – “Quit playing!”
So, I always set a theme for my birthday year. This past year I focused on embracing my freedom. This next year it’s Smooth Sailing. I just want to lay back, relax, create and let the gentle waves take me wherever they please. Whatever blessings come my way, I’m grasping them without overthinking. And the troubles I encounter.. HA! I’m handing those over to God.
Yep.. Smooth Sailing.
Well, I still have a little over three weeks to build up to the big event. Today I’m celebrating with a road trip and lunch– both work related but I’m going to celebrate like this event was planned in my honor. Then tonight I’m going to chat with a few sistas as we watch our favorite show, Tyler Perry’s Sistas. Yep.. the second half of Season 4 returns tonight! What a way to kick off my celebration!
Anyhoo.. let me publish this so I can get on the road. Enjoy your Wednesday!

You Are Worthy
Affirmation on Repeat:
“I am worthy. Yes, ME. I am worthy of God’s best.”
Listen.. and hear me good.. YOU are worthy of God’s absolute best. You don’t have to settle for less. Be Blessed! ~ Shaun
Hello Sunday
Yesterday I shared the quote, “It WILL happen.” This morning I checked my Facebook memories and last year, on this very date (May 29, 2021), I posted the exact same thing. Not in blog or quote, but as a response to someone else’s dream/vision. Y’all, at this moment, I’m so overwhelmed with emotions. I can finally see my dreams coming to fruition. My life is nothing like I imagined at all – it’s better!
For years I did things afraid – if I did them at all – because I was always afraid of failure or being ridiculed. Now, the fear is gone and it’s been replaced with peace. I’m not sure how it happened or when. I’m just grateful it’s gone. Y’all, I’m really loving this space I’m in.
Thank you so much for reading. Wishing you a wonderful day and fabulous week!

It Will Happen
It will happen. (Repeat)
People say belief alone doesn’t make things happen. It also takes effort. And I completely agree! What I’ve discovered over the years (through observation– yes.. I’m a people watcher☺️) is the more a person truly believes something will happen, the more they begin to make it happen. And sometimes that something is negative. So be mindful of what you are believing in/for.
I encourage you to believe something wonderful will happen and IT WILL HAPPEN! ~ Shaun
Remain Hopeful
After experiencing tragedies, it’s so hard to remain hopeful. Yet we have to or the enemy wins. 🙏🏽❤️ ~ Shaun
Stay Focused
If you are not careful, distractions will steal, kill and destroy God’s purpose for your life. Block the noise and stay focused. Your purpose is too great!♥️ ~ Shaun
All Praise to God
In exactly one month from today, I will be 49 years old. As I think back over my life, I cannot think of a time where I actually believed I achieved things on my own. I have always known that everything I am and everything I have is owed to God. I also know that all blessings and accomplishments yet to come will be due to Him. Y’all, I’m so grateful for His love.🙏🏽♥️ ~ Shaun
