Five Years with Mississippi Thriving

Shaun Bradford

Whew! When I tell you God knows how to keep the tears of gratitude flowing. I hadn’t expected to see this memory today.

Just thought I’d include the picture too.☺️

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

Shaun Bradford

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

Be Kind To Yourself

Shaun Bradford

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,

The World Needs You

Shaun Bradford

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

God’s got you. Show up and He will do the rest.

Never Lose Sight Of Your Purpose

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Be careful not to let your current situation (good or bad), emotions, lack of support, or other people cause you to lose sight of your purpose. Always keep your purpose in sight.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
