My Journey With God, No. 28

Earlier today, God had to check me on the way I showed up…or didn’t show up…for myself. He let me know that even when I don’t feel like showing up, I still have to show up. It wasn’t anything significant that happened. Actually, it was something small. So small that I didn’t feel like the way I showed up even mattered. However, it did.

From here on, I must be intentional about how I treat myself in all situations, not only the ones I believe are important.

It’s self-love Saturday, and loving myself has to always be done thoroughly.

I’m listening, God.♥️

The Plan

You may not be able to see it, but God has a plan. All you need to do is sit back, relax, and go with the flow. He’ll guide you when it’s time to move. Believe me when I say, He’s got you!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

There’s no better or safer place to be than in God’s hands.

Smiling

Good Morning☀️
It’s Self-love Saturday!

Two years ago, I wrote the following in one of my Wednesday Writings post—

“Progression is the name of the game, right? Smiling. Looking forward to meeting the woman I’m becoming.” – Wednesday Writings, November 30, 2022

That statement has me smiling a huge smile. Cheeks hurt because my smile is so big.

Y’all, I can see the woman I am becoming. I see her, and she’s emerging unafraid and unapologetically. Yes, I see her, and I love her.

Real talk, though. I am so glad I didn’t give up on myself and didn’t settle for things as they were. I can only imagine what my life would be like right now had I settled. I knew the path I was headed down, and it wasn’t a good one. At one point, it was one of suppression, depression, and hopelessness. I also think about my children’s lives and what they would be like today. I am so proud of myself for making decisions that helped me take my life back. Y’all, God is so good. As I have said many times before, I am beyond blessed.♥️

Guess What?!

You will WIN!🙌🏽


Since I’m wide awake, I thought I’d go ahead and post some good news for you to wake up to.

The message is, “You will win!” Yes, YOU! As I said a year ago, you always do. Smile♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Thought I’d go ahead and share since I’m wide awake. My two just got home and they are very talkative.
