My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
In my previous post, I mentioned my journal entry from October 22, 2023. The first two sentences in that entry were—
“‘Not from my own strength but God’s’ is what I just heard. I need to start tapping into His strength.”
Tap into His strength. Let Him do the heavy lifting. He’s got you!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
That’s what I wrote in my journal on October 22, 2023. “Always keep God first.” Believe me, He will not lead you wrong.
Soooo…
Did anyone do anything different yesterday?
Well, I did! It wasn’t drastically different, but it was different.
Yesterday, I wrote about how I felt my spirit worshipping God while hearing Tamela Mann’s song, “Change Me,” repeatedly playing in my head. When I finally listened to it, I had it on repeat for well over an hour. Every time I went to stop playing it, I kept hearing, “One more time.” So I played it until another song popped into my head, which was John P. Kee’s “I Do Worship.” Y’all, my spirit was definitely in worship mode.
So, here’s where ‘different’ came in. After listening to my songs, I really felt the need to share what I was experiencing with the world. I had already written it here (see Mid-Afternoon Worship) but needed to get it out verbally without any interruptions. So, I made a short video and shared it on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. I also shared how I could feel a shift taking place. I’ve been feeling it for a while; however, now the feeling is becoming stronger. And it’s not a bad shift, but a good one.
When I tell you it must have been for me to share! Y’all, I had zero anxiety. None! That has never happened, before. Never! I know it may seem small to you, but it was huge for me.
So, that was my different.
Y’all, God is good. So good. There’s no way I could not keep Him first. As I said, I know it may not seem like a big deal, it was just a video. But it was big for me. What took me a few minutes to do yesterday, would have taken me hours to do before, and it was only a couple of minutes long.
Thank you for allowing me to share. I pray you have a beautifully blessed day.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
I guess my spirit feels like worshipping right now, so I’m going to let it do so. The song that’s been playing over and over in my mind for the past 30 minutes or so (that’s how I know there’s worshipping happening) is “Change Me” by Tamela Mann.
The song says—
Change me, oh God
Make me more like you
Change me, oh God
Wash me through and through
Create in me a clean heart
So that I may worship you
Y’all, God is working, from my spirit outwards. I feel it and I’m not ashamed to share it.
Forever grateful.
Forever blessed.
God is so good!
Amen
I’m sharing the video below in case you feel like worshiping too.☺️♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Here’s the link: Change Me.
Many journeys will be long and tedious. However, they are much more bearable when you find and hold on to moments of joy.♥️
Love you,

Be obedient. You never know who needs what you have access to.
Yesterday, I texted a friend during Sunday morning service to let her know the message Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts was preaching was about her. I’ve never really spoken to her about anything spiritual before other than saying, “I’m praying for you”, “God’s got you!”; you know, that sort of thing, but nothing more. Well, yesterday I heard as clear as day, you need to send her this message. Even after texting her that morning, I was still second guessing if I should send the link that evening. I had imagined she’d forgotten that I said I would. However, I didn’t wait. I was obedient and sent her the link when it was first available.
A few minutes ago, I opened Facebook and this was the first post on my timeline…
When God tells you to do something, just do it. Again, you don’t know who needs what you have access to.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
Today is a new day! In other words, it’s an opportunity for a new beginning. An opportunity to do something different. To want something different. To expect something different.
Soooo…
What will you do differently?
What do you want to be different?
What are you expecting to be different?
Just a few questions to ponder. Smile
I pray you have an amazing week that’s different and more wonderful than you expected.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
That’s the quote I shared on this date a year ago. Y’all, it feels so wonderful to be loved, and to be loved unconditionally.
Yesterday, I got to spend the day with my two hearts. Now that they’re grown and doing their own thing, it’s been a while—maybe since last Christmas—that we’ve spent more than an hour or two together. My son is usually working on the weekends, and my daughter no longer lives in Mississippi.
Well, yesterday, we were together almost the entire day. We sang, danced, laughed, and talked about nothingness (nothing too deep this time). It was just an overall wonderful day. One that I needed so badly. Then, last night they treated me to dinner at our favorite restaurant.
Yes, it feels absolutely wonderful to be loved.🥰
I pray you had a lovely weekend, and may today be even more beautiful. If no one’s told you in a while—like, since I told you yesterday☺️—you are loved.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Before you go to sleep, be sure to put all your cares and worries in God’s hands, and then, leave them there. They’re not worth carrying into tomorrow.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
Here’s my first message for today—
Your purpose is much too great for you to settle for what is, or where you are. As I said last year, “You’ve got purposes to fulfill and lives to touch. Get moving!”
Yes, get moving and keep showing up. Someone somewhere is counting on you to continue walking in your purpose so that they can walk in theirs.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Here’s the Facebook memory that actually prompted my last post about Colin Powell (the hashtag).🥰
Never give up. Keep striving for your dreams!♥️
