This is your season to reap what you have sown. Can’t y’all hear William Murphy’s “ItsWorking”? I sure can!
It’s a new season. Everything is working together for your good—even when it doesn’t feel like it. Hang in there. Love you!♥️

Found the quote below in my journal entry dated May 16, 2019. It’s definitely a much needed reminder that we may be surrounded by stressors; however, we do not have to be stressed.
In that entry, I mentioned that I had shared the quote the day before (May 15, 2019), but I do not remember seeing it under yesterday’s Facebook memories. Or… maybe it was there but wasn’t meant to be shared until today. Hmmm… Only God knows. Smile♥️
It’s not the things around you that causes stress but your thoughts about them that causes the stress.
Repeat after me—
“I refuse to be stressed. God has everything under control.”
Love you,
Shaun
This is my prayer today and always—“Lord, please guide me. Amen”
Praying you have a blessed day!♥️

Before my mom passed, my siblings and I gave her her roses, especially during her last few months of life. During that time, we were intentional about letting her know she was so very loved and appreciated. Y’all, there was no way we were going to let her leave this world wondering. Now, don’t get me wrong, we loved on her before then, but it was nothing like those last few months. Everything was different. Maybe because she was different. It was almost as if it had finally resonated with her that she was actually loved and appreciated. Imagine going through life never truly knowing if you were loved or appreciated. Hmmm… Another topic for another day.
Well, unlike Momma, I don’t have to wonder. I know my two love me. I feel it through their actions. Not through receiving material things like physical roses or gifts, but through their affection and words of appreciation, affirmation and gratitude. Yes, I am one loved mother. Smiling
Not only am I grateful for my roses from them, but also from others. I am so grateful for those who pour into me and let me know that I am appreciated and loved. I receive, accept, and appreciate my roses.
Hmmm… Maybe that’s the key. Roses must be accepted after received. Again, another topic for another day because I haven’t always accepted my roses, either.
Anyhoo… If you are reading this, please accept your roses. Please know that you are truly appreciated and loved. Thank you so much for taking time from your day to drop in and visit my world. In Tupac’s words, you are appreciated. Sending you virtual hugs. Praying God blesses you many, many times over. Love you!♥️

When was the last time you were still long enough to hear God’s voice?
Facebook Memory: May 14, 2022
STOP
Listen
What do you hear?
Sometimes I find myself moving a mile a minute – busy with this, thinking about that, trying to figure things out on my own. Then, after I’m good and frustrated, I hear, “STOP. Listen.” Ha! That’s when I hear God’s voice.
Thanks for reading. Enjoy your day!♥️

If more kindness, love, light, peace, humility, compassion, empathy, hope and so forth is what I seek, I must be intentional about putting it into the atmosphere. I have to do more to make sure it is seen and shared, whether I am the one creating the content or sharing someone else’s. I know I won’t always get it right. However, I am willing to try. I refuse to believe there are more bad things happening in the world than good. The good just are not being highlighted enough.
Here is a quote from another fav of mine, President Barack Obama.
Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
President Barack Obama
I have to be intentional about promoting the change I am seeking.
Wishing you a lovely week!♥️
Be Blessed,
Shaun

Encourage someone today. Even if that someone happens to be yourself.🌼
I promise this is the last post for today. My daughter is headed back home, my son is at work, and I am left alone deep in thought. I have absolutely no idea what is going on this year, especially during my Jubilee year, but it’s a lot. Confusion, chaos, hatred, you name it. Much more negative energy in the atmosphere than positive. I see it. I feel it. As much as I would love the kumbaya moments to happen and last, they seem far and few in between.
This past year I have witnessed people do things out of pure spite just to be noticed. No one thinks about the consequences of their actions. They can care less who they harm. It’s all about Me, Me, Me, and trending. And most of the time the true victims aren’t the people they intend to hurt but those connected to them. Y’all, people will literally sell their souls and relationships just for momentary satisfaction. Then when the feeling and fame wears off they search for more ways to become relevant, even if it does more harm. What is this world coming to?
I guess this means I need to do more to spread light and love. I know people are better than this. I think it’s time I become more intentional about finding like minded people who would rather build bridges than tear them down. People who, when hurt or angered, do not lash out, but instead extend kindness, mercy, and grace. Y’all, love must win!
My heart is breaking for humanity right now. I have to remain hopeful that things will get better soon.🙏🏽♥️

God always gives us a glimpse of what destiny spaces may look like—the people, the places, the mindsets, the atmosphere. Sometimes He even allows a test run just to see if it is something we are sure we want, or to get a feel of the environment. As I wrote yesterday, it’s our “yes” that actually sets things in motion.
I am 12 days shy of entering the final month of my Jubilee year. Thanking God for the test run. So grateful He didn’t let me give up. So grateful He kept pushing me forward. I’m blessed.♥️ ~Shaun

Can you see it?
Can you feel it?
Are you already living it even though you’re nowhere near it?
You can believe until you’re blue in the face. If you can’t see it, you’ll never have it. Just sharing God’s message to me. Thought you could use it too.🤷🏽♀️
Keeping this one simple…♥️ ~Shaun
