Push

Push yourself beyond your limits. Each day push a little more. Even if it’s only an inch at a time, keep pushing. Push until you achieve your dreams and goals, then push even more. There are blessings waiting for you!

As the saying goes:

Pray

Until

Something

Happens

Then continue praying.♥️

Love you,

Leap, You Won’t Regret It

Good Morning! For the past few years, I’ve been sharing the same message on September 16th—Take the leap!

This past weekend we celebrated one of my sister-friends’ big leap. It was a leap she had been toying with for years, and Friday she did it! We’re so proud of her. It’s her time to shine!

Here’s what I shared last year.

Facebook Memory: September 16, 2023

“How badly do you want it?! Listen, take that leap and go after it! Remember, you only have ONE life.”

In 2021, I wrote, “Take the leap. Then, keep leaping.”

Listen, taking major leaps takes courage. Not only do you have to deal with fear, but you have to be mentally prepared. From my experience, the decision to leap usually happens when what you want—the “how badly do you want it?”—outweighs your fear. It’s in that moment that you ask yourself “What do I have to lose?”, and you leap. I’m not going to lie, it’s an amazing feeling, almost euphoric. As I told my friend, bask in that feeling. Give yourself time to soak it all in. Then, give yourself grace and time to adjust. Because, believe me, when reality sets in, it sets in! That’s when you exhale and allow life to flow.

Thinking back to all the major leaps I’ve taken in life, I have yet to regret one. Every last one was necessary. I wouldn’t be where I am or who I am today had I not leaped. Y’all, God is so good.


That’s it for now. I pray you have a wonderful day and week. May they be filled with love, peace, joy and blessings.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Forgiveness

Good Morning! Are you still holding on to past hurts or disappointments? You say you’ve forgiven everyone who has hurt you, but have you? It’s one thing to say you forgive them with your mouth and another to mean it with your heart. Speaking from experience.

Short story (making it very short)…

For years I had said I’d forgiven my daughter’s father for the lies, abandonment, and heartbreak he caused me. However, in reality, I had only packed the hurt away and covered it with things that looked and felt good—one of them was my marriage. Well, sixteen years after I ended things with my daughter’s father (close to nine years into my marriage), we briefly reconnected. Nothing romantic. He reached out to connect with my daughter. He also apologized for the things he did and put me through while we were together (and afterwards).

Well, after he finished his spill, I told him I forgave him. Y’all, when I tell you I felt like the shackles had been released! I said I forgave him and actually meant it. It wasn’t all talk. Unfortunately and fortunately, that act of forgiveness opened my eyes to decisions and choices I had made while I was hurt. Which meant I had to clean up a few messes, beginning with letting my ex go (details about my decision can be found in past posts).

Listen.

Forgive.

Forgive with your whole heart.

I know it’s easier said than done.

Ask God for help—He’s got you!

True forgiveness sets great things in motion.

Try it!


Well, that’s all for now. Thanks for reading. I pray you have a wonderful day and an amazing week!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Everything Is Falling Into Place

Hello! It may not look or feel like it, but everything is falling into place. Resist the urge to step out on your own and do things your way or settle.

Instead…

Be patient.

Trust God.

Trust His timing.

Love you!♥️

Trust The Process

Facebook Memory: July 1, 2022

Life is interesting. We never know where it’s taking us. One minute we think we’re headed in one direction and the next, we’re headed somewhere completely different. Thankfully, in the end, we always land where we are meant to be. Trust the process.

Wishing you a wonderful first day of July! Speaking new opportunities and blessings over your month. Praying God blocks everything against you and whatever is meant for harm will instead work out in your favor.♥️

Love you,

Only One Week Away

Hey Y’all! I am only one week away from one of the greatest dates of my life… MY BIRTHDAY!!!🎉🎉🎉

Almost 51! God is soooo amazing! Never, ever imagined being 50. I’m in awe. Grateful and blessed.🌺

Year51 is right around the corner. Smiling because this year, Year50, my Jubilee year, has probably been one of my most interesting years yet—spiritually. Never knew I needed the spiritual awakening I received. This awakening has been the driving force behind so many life changing experiences—mentally, emotionally, financially, physically, etc. Y’all, I am not sure what Year51, or this side of 50, holds; however, I do know this past year was preparation for the rest.

Grateful

Cheers to the final week of my Jubilee year. It’s been real… for real!

Praying you have a beautifully, blessed week as we celebrate this last week of my Jubilee year. Yes, we. I am inviting you along. Let’s celebrate!🎉

Love you always,

Shaun

If you haven’t noticed by now, I create my own excitement. Always have and always will. Smile♥️

Do You Believe?

Belief is more than a thought. It has action behind it. As I asked last year (was really asking myself this question)—Do you believe what you are believing for?

Facebook Memory: June 10, 2023

“Just believe!” We say it all the time in passing. However, most of us never put too much thought into it, we just say it. As we all know, the action of believing is so much more than a thought.

Question–Do you believe what you are believing for?

Just believe! Believe until you know it will happen.

Wishing you a wonderful week!♥️

Love you,

Shaun
