Still Learning and Growing

Shaun Bradford

So, I am not sure if I was supposed to share that last blog. After publishing it, I felt the urge to pull it. Felt like that message was just for me, for my eyes only. I left it because anyone who received it by email got it so there was no sense in deleting it. Yesterday, there was a video I watched that I really wanted to share with y’all but I kept hearing it was just for me. The only person I was meant to share it with was my daughter. Sometimes I get so excited about the things God does and shows me that I just want to share them with the world. Ugh…I’m learning.

Anyhoo… I have to let it go. What’s done is done. And to be honest, God knew I was going to post it, right? Smile

Gotta love life…

Here’s another post that was shared on this date:

Listening and Learning

Shaun Bradford

I don’t know about you, but it seems as if I am forever a student of this thing called life. Once I believe I have mastered one area, I discover I still have a long ways to go in another. Nothing is ever perfect.

Here’s a Facebook post that I shared a year ago:

Not giving up.

This is all I have for you today. Praying you have a wonderful Wednesday.♥️

Be Blessed,

I’m Learning

Shaun Bradford

Listening to God and following His lead is fairly easy when we are in agreement. However, when I don’t completely agree with where He is leading me, or unsure of the outcome, it is quite difficult. But I’m learning. Yes, slowly but surely, I am learning.

I often reference journal entries and Facebook memories because they give me a picture of where I was mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Sometimes I find that I have grown a lot. However, sometimes I find I haven’t grown at all. That I have only gotten older. Just being transparent.

This brings me to the point of giving God total control to lead. Which means I have to listen and obey without having a hand in the outcome. I am not going to lie, sometimes I do not like following God’s lead because His guidance can result in loss, disappointment, and heartache. Just keeping it real! However, in the end, things always seem to work out for the best. Hmmm… funny how that happens.

Well, what led me to write this blog was a journal entry from September 18, 2017. In the entry, I mentioned two individuals I was dead set on helping even though God kept telling me to cut ties. Y’all, I couldn’t do it. God sent so many signs, but I had other plans. I wrote how it was not about me but the “bigger picture.” But whose bigger picture? Mine or God’s? Honestly, not letting go caused more damage than it would have if I had listened and let go when I was instructed to do so. It took me a minute to be obedient. However, once I was, I began to grow.

As I said, I am still learning. God sees and knows all things. He knows our heart and intentions as well as others. He knows what keeps us stagnant and what promotes growth. Slowly, but surely, I am learning. Anxious to see what God has in store.
