As I stated six years ago, God has NEVER let me down! Choose faith.♥️ ~Shaun

Obedience Saves
I am so much stronger and better equipped because I listened and obeyed. –Shaun
Hey y’all! So, I had written several paragraphs—several long paragraphs—and when I finished, I heard not to share any of it. And I obeyed.
Obedience.
Growth.
I’m listening God.
Praying you have another beautiful day.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Value
Hello! So, according to my journal entry from July 30, 2022, I was deeply engaged in a conversation Jay Shetty and Lewis Howes were having on a podcast (will share the podcast if I can find it). It was about love, life, growth and relationships. Y’all, I took so many notes. I also jotted down important questions I needed to answer. One was about what I valued. I even wrote, “Shaun, what do you value?” Well, as I mentioned, their conversation was mainly about relationships/companionship so I answered accordingly. Today, I asked myself the same question but answered based on life in general.
Aside from my relationship with God, here are a few things I value:
Love, kindness, compassion, respect, optimism, peace, time with family, Me time, and people. Not necessarily in that order, but those are a few.
How about you? What are some things you value?

Found the podcast!! Smiling because Lewis is now engaged to his then girlfriend. Love is a beautiful thing.♥️
Focus On The Promise
Good Morning! Here’s today’s Facebook memories.
Facebook Memory: July 30, 2021 (with TikTok’s assistance☺️)
Focus on the promise. I repeat– FOCUS ON THE PROMISE. Because focusing on the process will only weigh you down. Be Blessed 🙏🏽❤️
Ha! The whole process of having to retrieve the screenshot is the perfect example of me focusing on the promise, not the process. Even creating that TikTok account was part of the process.
There’s a promise God’s given me, and no matter how daunting or tedious the process is at times, I am still focused on the promise. As you can see from the screenshot, my video didn’t get any likes and barely any views (143), but I kept posting anyway. And for those wondering, the promise isn’t to be seen or become “famous”, but to spread hope and love to every inch of the earth through everything I touch and do. That’s the promise I have been given. It will happen. Not necessarily directly through me, but through others. Y’all, we’re all connected. One day that harmony will happen. For those who don’t know, “I’d Like to Teach The World to Sing (in Perfect Harmony),” is the song that sparked it all. That and President Jimmy Carter. So, yeah, I am still focused on the promise, over 45 years later. I was just a baby when it all began.
Stay focused. Whatever dreams, visions , and promises God’s placed in you will happen. Maybe not the way you envision, but according to God’s plan (which is ultimately better than you’ve ever imagined — I truly believe this).
Well, that’s all for now. Praying you have a wonderfully, blessed day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
OAN: I haven’t posted much on TikTok lately because they started removing the music from my posts. Which is one of the reasons I created a YouTube channel.
Obedience and Peace
Hello! Praying you had a wonderful weekend. Today’s message is, “Obedience leads to peace.”
Lately, I have noticed how much more peaceful life has become since I decided to obey God the first time. Not the third or fourth time, or after I have asked for several confirmations, but the first time.
If peace is what you seek, be obedient. Love you.♥️ ~Shaun
Hello Sunday
Hello! I’m hoping you’re doing well. I realize I haven’t greeted you in ages, which is pretty rude of me. It’s like me walking into a room and not speaking, or waking up and not saying “Good Morning.” Please forgive me for not acknowledging you before sharing my thoughts. I promise to do better and not only let you know you are loved at the end, but that your presence is appreciated at the beginning.
So, while looking for inspiration for this post, I found this prayer in one of my “Wednesday Writings” (July 21, 2021). It is one I haven’t said in a while or been mindful of. Here it is —
“I pray that I recognize and accept the opportunities He [God] sends my way. I pray fear does not stop me from moving forward. I pray God gives me the strength– mentally, spiritually and physically– to endure this task.”
I ended it with —
“I know God’s got me, but do I have myself?”
Hmmm…
That was a great question. Did I have myself? Well, I thought I did, and to some extent I did. However, I was still working through a lot of stuff. One of which was learning to put myself first. To stop overlooking my needs, desires, and feelings to appease others. That was in 2021. Today, I can’t say I am 100% there; however, I am pretty close (95-98%). Had to get over the guilt of feeling selfish. The interesting part is the ones who mattered the most, my two hearts, were the ones urging me to take care of myself, first. Maybe they are actually the reason for my growth. I just love them and the way they love me. I guess I said all of that to say, “Yes, I got me!”
I also found another gem in the post (besides the prayer). I was celebrating my continual days of writing. Here’s what I wrote —
“I’m on my 67th day of continuous blogging and refuse to stop until I reach 100 days.”
100 days…
100 days was my goal…
Y’all, I’m in tears! Today makes 1170 days of continuous blogging. And to think I was only trying to make it to 100. Back then I was struggling to post once a day. Now, I’m posting at least twice a day, and not only on this platform but others. Yep… I’m crying. I had no idea of what I was capable of. It may not seem significant to you but it’s huge to me. These are my 1170 blue hearts.💙
I’m going to go ahead and end here because I’m crying (tears of praise and gratitude) too much to keep writing. Praying you have a wonderful Sunday. ♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
