Happy Sunday! I pray your weekend is going well. Mine has been pretty great so far. I can’t complain.☺️
Today’s Hello Sunday is a reminder that the person people see you as today has been years in the making, even decades. Meaning, you did not become who you are overnight. It’s also a reminder to be gentle, kind, and patient with yourself as God continues—because the process is never ending—to shape and mold you into the person you know you’re meant to be. Remember, who you are today is only a glimpse of who you’re becoming. Smile♥️
Love you,
Shaun

Life is beautiful. Forever looking up. It’s the only way to look!
While reading one of my fellow bloggers’ posts—Wynne Leon (Surprised by Joy)—I saw this quote and it spoke to my soul. If you know me, just about everything speaks to my heart, soul, and/or spirit. Smile. Well, I felt this one. For me, it captures the way I feel about peace, joy, love, and freedom. Once you’ve tasted them, you’ll forever want more. It’s where I am in life, today; and I am so loving this space.♥️
Good Morning! Have you ever been frustrated, disappointed, down, or even hurt because things in life just haven’t gone as planned? Well, according to your plans.
If so…
Let It Go!
Release every expectation you had for your plan because God has something better in store.
Here’s a quote from the late Bruce Van Horn along with the post I shared six years ago.
I shared this a couple of weeks after I had basically given up on my plans of finding a new home. After losing my house (due to divorce), I had promised my kids that the place we had moved into was only temporary. Well, eventually our “temporary” home began to look more like a long term stay.
After three years of searching for a place and things not working out, one day everything just fell into place. I found a house, secured the lease, and moved in the day before my son’s birthday.
You see, the year before, I had promised my son we’d be in a new place before his next birthday (no lie). So, I was really trying to make good on my promise. Well, by the time September of the following year rolled around, I still hadn’t found a place. Talk about being frustrated and disappointed. Then, one day I just let it go. I was tired. And that’s when it all happened. What I hadn’t been able to do in three years, God did in less than three weeks. To this day, it still amazes me how things happened. As I mentioned, we moved in the day before my son’s birthday.
Y’all, that’s only one of many examples of things happening according to God’s plan. As Bruce Van Horn put in his message from God, trust God’s love for you. Never doubt that He’s got you, completely!♥️
When I tell you God just checked me! Laughing. I heard to do something, something that made me somewhat uncomfortable. Basically, it was out of the norm. Well, as I often do when God asks me to do something that shakes my comfort level, I started second guessing if I heard correctly. Then, I wanted to know the outcome. “What would happen if I did it?” “What would happen if I didn’t?” Also, “Why?” Why did I need to do it? That’s when I was hit with the, “Because I said so.” HA!!
Me: “Okay, I hear You, God.” DONE!
Listen, if you consider yourself a vessel of God and claim He can use you as He pleases, get ready to have uncomfortable moments. From my experience, the moments are never detrimental, they’re just uncomfortable. You can do it. My advice, release control—yes, it’s a control thing—and be obedient. God knows the outcome, and He’s the only one who needs to know.♥️
