Put It In God’s Hands
I found the quote above in my photos. Not sure who wrote it or if I ever shared it. However, that’s not the point. The message is the point. Stop stressing by trying to do and make everything happen yourself. Give it all to God. I’m talking about everything! I mean, He is the one in control, right? Let Him have it.🥰
Love you,
Shaun
Joyfully Following God
Every year, I share this memory of where Shaun’s Daily Inspiration began. In 2018, I didn’t know it would evolve into what it has become. I didn’t even have a name for it then. Today, I use my drawings as backgrounds for about 95% of my quotes, and most of my quotes are original. I don’t know where God is taking me with this or It’s Shaun’s World, but I am joyfully following along. This is what I love doing.♥️🌺
Don’t Give Up – Keep Going!
Good Morning!☀️
Listen, DO NOT give up! I know it seems like you’ve been working towards your dreams for ages, and the closer you get to them, the farther you have to go. Believe me, I get it. I am right there with you. But guess what we’re not going to do? We are not going to give up or settle for less than God’s best for our lives. Instead, we are going to keep going. Yes, we are going to keep going until we see our dreams come true.
Here are two posts that just gave me the boost I needed this morning. I hope they inspire and motivate you.
Facebook Memory: January 6, 2019
A Facebook post that randomly showed up on my feed this morning.☺️
When I tell you God’s messages are always on time. This is why I allow Him to lead.
My Facebook memory reminded me of how far I’ve come in ten years. Y’all, 2015 was a beast! My entire life fell apart that year, and I nearly lost everything (I still had my babies) however, I made it! I’m still here and much further along than before things fell apart. Yes, life is so much better. Also, randomly seeing Mel Robbins’ post on my feed was all God—ALL God.
Y’all, I am so grateful God loves me enough to keep me motivated and encouraged. That He won’t let me give up on my dreams or settle where I am, even when I want to.🥰
By the way, I’m going to go back and follow Mel. I have been listening to her podcasts for over a year or so now but haven’t followed her on social media.
Well, this is all I have at the moment. Thank you for reading. I really do appreciate you. Sending prayers your way for a wonderful day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 47
Good Morning!☀️
God is moving. He’s moving in a way I don’t always understand, but He’s moving.
I was reading a journal entry from this date a few years ago and found an excerpt attached from January 3, 2015. This basically sums up what I struggle with at times—both needing encouragement and motivation and people not thinking I do.
It just baffles me how people think I don’t have the same needs as everyone else. Like I’m some kind of superhuman or something. As I mentioned back then, I do and handle things like I do because I have to, not always out of choice. But they were both right, it’s made me who I am today. Not sure if that’s always a good thing though.
Anyhoo…
As I said, God is moving. It’s so ironic that I am seeing this today. Yesterday, I revived something (yeah…learning not to over share) I began in 2022. Seeing the snippet of those two conversations confirms I’m moving in the right direction.
Y’all, I’m so grateful and thankful for God’s love. I am truly blessed.🥰
This is all for now. I’m looking forward to spending time with my bonus mom today. She already has a lot planned (tasks) for us to do.🤦🏽♀️☺️ I pray you have a wonderful day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Five Years with Mississippi Thriving
Whew! When I tell you God knows how to keep the tears of gratitude flowing. I hadn’t expected to see this memory today.
Five years ago, I created the social media platform Mississippi Thriving to help individuals, agencies, and organizations share helpful and healthful information with Mississippians. I also wanted it to serve as a resource hub for our communities and a place where people outside Mississippi could visit to see the positive things happening in our state. Statistically and politically, Mississippi looks pretty bad; however, in reality, we’re moving and making progress—slow progress, but progress. Maybe it’s not noteworthy to the world, but it means everything to us.
Y’all, God is so good. Only He knew how much I needed to see this memory today. I just love how He loves me.🥰
Forever grateful and blessed.♥️

Stay Covered
Good Morning!☀️
I shared the same image (Stay Humble) for two years with the same caption— “2023/2024 is loading… Stay Humble.”
Well, this year I have decided to switch it up. This year’s caption will read—
2025 is loading…
Stay Covered.
Listen, 2025 is not the year to venture out without God covering your every move—from your words to your relationships to new endeavors. God knows and sees everything, including the thoughts, intentions, and hearts of others. So, please stay covered. Use your discernment. If it doesn’t feel right, it’s not right. Period. With that said, when God places an opportunity before you, and He says, “Take it, it’s yours,” don’t ask a million questions—take it!
I don’t know about you, but I can already tell that 2025 is going to be one eventful year—the roller coaster ride is loading. My plans are to follow the advice I gave above. I’m staying covered, using my discernment, seizing opportunities, and allowing God to lead.
Thank you for reading. I pray you have a wonderfully blessed day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Remember Your Why and Your Purpose
Remember your “Why” and your purpose, and never stop pursuing them. You have the Greatest of greats—the Almighty God—backing you, AND YOU are His child. Don’t let anything stop you, not even you. Smile
Keep going!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Be Kind To Yourself
A little bit of kindness goes a long way. Have you been kind to yourself lately?
Remember to be kind and gentle with yourself. Nothing in life ever remains the same. You are growing and evolving like everyone else and deserve just as much grace. So please, be kind to yourself.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
The World Needs You
Please keep showing up. I know sometimes it’s easier said than done because, on some days, it’s hard showing up for yourself. But please, keep showing up. The world needs you.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
