The Waves of Life

Facebook Memory: September 9, 2022

Life happens in waves. Ups and downs. Ins and Outs. Joys and sorrows. Breathe.

No matter where the waves take you, know that God has you in His arms. He will never abandon or leave you. Again.. Breathe.♥️ ~ Shaun

God is with you.

God is Good

Facebook Memory: September 8, 2022

Smile.
God is good.

I have already said enough this week. The only thing that matters and what I must always remember is God is good and He does love me.

Have a blessed weekend! Love you.♥️

Your Tears Will Not Be Wasted

Hang in there! You are not the sacrifice.

You must believe that every setback you have had, every tear you have shed, and all of the pain you have endured has not been for nothing. God will not allow any of these things to break you or take you out. Instead, He will use all of it for your good. Just hang in there. I am praying for you!♥️

Surrender And Be Obedient

Today’s a new day! Time to get up and get moving. So grateful I am still here and blessed. Amen

Here’s a quote from last year’s journal entry. Y’all, God’s word is always on time. Always! Trust where He’s guiding you.

Shaun’s Journal Entry: September 5, 2022

“Trust that the One who created us knows us best because He’s the one who created us. When we surrender and be obedient, God is lining us up for so much greater. The walk of obedience leads to a life unimaginable. Even though it seems hard at the moment it will be worth it.” Alex Seeley (TBN’s Better Together Series)

Surrender and be obedient. God has something greater planned. Love you!♥️

Yes it does. Trusting God.

Hello Sunday

Hello! Hello! Hello! I pray you are having a wonderful weekend. Here’s today’s message and a few verses from Matthew Chapter 6:

Keep standing. God’s got you!

Matthew 6:30-34 NIV
30. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?

31. So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

32. For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

33. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

34. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

That’s all I have for now. Please enjoy the rest of your day. Love you!♥️

Allowing God to Shepherd

Here’s today’s YouTube message, “What If?”, by Pastor Stephanie Ike Okafor. When I tell you it was exactly what I needed. Y’all, I have been trying to shepherd my life instead of allowing God to do so. I realize it’s a control thing. Accepting that I am just a sheep makes so much more sense, and it alleviates the pressure of trying to figure everything out. God already has that under control. Even when I feel like I have deviated from His plan, I must trust that He will guide me back to where I am meant to be. No mistake is beyond God’s repair. Amen

Allowing God to shepherd.

I pray that this message blesses you as much as it did me.♥️

This is Year50

Your Future is Waiting

Your future is waiting for you to…

Love yourself unconditionally.

Embrace the love that’s flowing your way.

Tune out the noise of unworthiness.

Let go of things that no longer serve you.

Never forget that you are God’s child and deserve His absolute best.♥️ ~ Shaun

Yes, YOU (I’m talking to you!) deserve God’s best. Love you!♥️

Happy September!

It’s a new month and a brand new day. Let’s give God the glory and LIVE!♥️ ~ Shaun

Expect the unexpected. Blessings are on the way!

Don’t Limit God

I have had this as my cover/header on several of my social media platforms for three years now. Three years! Three years and I still find myself placing limits on God. Shaking my head.

Don’t limit God

Do Not Limit God!

A couple of days ago, I went on a 24 hour adventure with a feisty, fearless 82 year old. When I tell you she’s not afraid to live! She kept saying, “Aww LaShaundra (not LaShaundrea), you’re a scaredy cat.” When I tell you she’s so spontaneous. Everything I once was. Probably everything I could still be if I would have stayed out of my head.

Now I am sitting here asking myself what would happen if I completely let go… like completely. What limits am I blocking? Hmmm…

In the words of one of my all time favorite people in the world, “Higher is waiting.” Y’all, I believe that’s my answer. That’s what I am blocking. I’m blocking something higher. Guess it’s time to take those limits off and soar! I can do this!!!

Wishing you a wonderful Thursday. Love you!♥️

Gotta love Year50. When I tell you I was not expecting my year to be anything like this. When I say God is pruning me for real. Y’all, it’s scary, uncomfortable, and somewhat painful; however, I am trusting God to take me somewhere wonderfully, unimaginable. Somewhere where my heart will sing again, the butterflies will flutter, and I will experience an overflow of joy, blessings and unconditional love, forever…
