Just a friendly reminder. You are not behind. No, you’re right where you should be at this moment in time. Remember, everything happens according to God’s timing, not ours.
While waiting, your/our (yes, myself included☺️) job is to continue following God’s instructions and guidance until whatever we dreamed comes to fruition. And you know those instructions I’m referring to. Yeah…the ones you keep putting off like God doesn’t see you. Smile. Well, follow those instructions first, and everything else will fall into place. Before you know it, you’ll be standing in your dream.♥️
Decided to stick with the trend and share the same post I shared last year and the year before.
Originally shared on October 2, 2022 with a simple caption, “Wishing you love, peace and prosperity.”
Today, I am wishing you love, light (to guide you through the tough times), peace, joy (you deserve it), and prosperity. May God continue to bless you and keep you under His care. Always keep God first, and stay covered.♥️
Not only is today a new day, but it’s the beginning of a new month. Meaning, it’s the perfect time to start afresh and refreshed. Remember, yesterday is gone. You can only move forward from here.
Praying you have a wonderful day and a beautifully, blessed month. May God bless everything you touch and set out to do.♥️
Several posts ago, I mentioned a conversation with Dr. Cheryl Wood (motivational speaker) about taking a leap into the entrepreneurial world. Well, until I saw this Facebook memory (screenshot below) this morning, I had forgotten that a few years earlier I had become a sole proprietor, which became my side hustle for a few years. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not knocking it because it—The Research Diva–RD—eventually became LaShaundreaB, Registered Dietitian and Research Consultant, the hub for all of my projects. I started with what I had.
Facebook Memory: September 30, 2017
I shared Jennifer Hudson’s song, “I Am Changing,” with the post.
As I said in my previous post, “Make It Happen, Today!”, if it’s something you really want to do, don’t put it off. Start with what you have and God will do the rest. After creating The Research Diva–RD, not even a year later, my confidence took the biggest blow. Y’all, knocked it down to ZERO. In all of the conferences and workshops I had attended, no one had prepared me for the hits. Every speaker made them seem like a small hiccup in the process. You know, “It’s just something you have to go through to get to the other side.” And to their credit, I will say, the pain or disappointment isn’t something easy to describe. All I can say is, it hurt! Had me second guessing my dreams and purpose. Didn’t even know if I wanted to remain a dietitian or in research. It was a terrible time for me, but eventually, like everyone else who’d experienced setbacks, I found my way back.
Listen, life is going to happen, and sometimes it will literally knock the life out of you. If or when it happens, please be kind to yourself, and give yourself grace and time to find your way back. Just don’t give up on your dreams. God put them in you for a purpose that’s much greater than yourself.
Well, that’s all for now. Just saw that post and thought I’d share it with you. Listen, don’t wait, make your dreams happen, now!♥️
Everything you thought you lost, including time, is being restored or made new.
That’s what I heard when I came across this Facebook memory from September 29, 2022.
On that day, I wrote, “God will make ALL things new.”
Been feeling this lately, especially since my son turned 21. Yeah… since last week. Smile. Yesterday it hit me that at 51 I’ve been given a second chance at everything in life. Somewhat like a rebirth. However, this time around, I’m much wiser. Most of the decisions I’ll make this time will be based on personal experiences, good and bad (lessons learned).
Y’all, I’m pretty excited about this new stage of life! Looking forward to the new.♥️
Happy Sunday! I pray your weekend is going well. Mine has been pretty great so far. I can’t complain.☺️
Today’s Hello Sunday is a reminder that the person people see you as today has been years in the making, even decades. Meaning, you did not become who you are overnight. It’s also a reminder to be gentle, kind, and patient with yourself as God continues—because the process is never ending—to shape and mold you into the person you know you’re meant to be. Remember, who you are today is only a glimpse of who you’re becoming. Smile♥️
Love you,
Shaun
