My Journey With God, No. 53

Good Morning☀️

Woke up this morning singing Kirk Franklin’s “Conquerors”. Then, I came across these two messages in my Facebook memories.

Whew! This message is right here. This is exactly what God’s been telling me to do. I keep saying, “I’m listening, God; I hear you, God.” However, as we’ve all experienced (and I know I’m not alone in this), doing so becomes difficult at times when the facts seem overpowering. But I’m holding on. The crazy thing is God has never not taken care of me. He’s always been faithful. So why is it difficult to stay focused on His instructions?

I guess I’m beginning to sound like Joel because I ended last year with this exact message—I’m taking the limits off God and myself. Y’all, why do I want to say, “This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. …” IYKYK😁

I needed both messages this morning. Thank You, God.♥️

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

Use What You Have

Use what you already have to do what you have always wanted to do and become who you want to be. The world is yours!♥️

Love you!

Shared this several months ago. Feeling it more than ever this morning.

My Journey With God, No. 52

Made A Way” by Travis Greene is the song of the hour. The song says—

You made a way
When our backs were against the wall
And it looked as if it was over
You made a way
And we’re standing here
Only because you made a way
You made a way

July 2021

I shared the statement above a few months after I became a full-time entrepreneur. God had my back then, and He still has it today—I needed the reminder I received earlier while in shopping (see “Often, Easier Said Than Done”).

This morning, I felt myself falling into the trap of just because I couldn’t see anything happening, nothing was happening. Y’all, I had done all I could in my power and had moved on. The last thing I expected was to receive that particular call and on a holiday. I guess that was God’s way of letting me know He still has my back. All I need to do is rest in Him, be still, and move when He instructs me to do so.

I’m listening, God.♥️

Often, Easier Said Than Done

Here’s what a shared on January 20, 2023:

In tears right now because I am experiencing a moment of God working in real time. While in the middle of writing this post—while in Walmart trying to buy things for the snow and freezing temps headed my way—thinking about “often, easier said than done,” I received a phone call from a client to schedule an appointment. Here I am trying to figure things out and God is already working things out.

The message—When God says He’s got you and to be still, He means He’s got you! Be still!! ♥️

Now, I’m in here crying… Let me hurry up and leave.

Love you,

Shaun
