Respect God’s Timing

Shaun Bradford

How often have you tried to rush things or make something happen and it didn’t work? Could it possibly be because the timing wasn’t right? Some things take time. Yep.. sometimes YEARS! Did you just cringe, too?! (Laughing) Good news is, everything always works out better when we respect God’s timing.

Last night, I witnessed someone’s wait finally come to fruition. Sheryl Lee Ralph has been a performer and actress for decades and this year she was finally nominated for an Emmy award… and she WON!!!! Y’all, I was so excited for her and her babies. Her son and daughter – kinda like mine – have always been her biggest supporters and fans and they were there to witness this magnificent occasion. It was so beautiful!

On another note– I would like to see the same for Tyler Perry. He’s also been in the game for decades and it’s time for him to receive the writer/producer/director and film credit he deserves. Yep.. It’s time for him to receive an Oscar for his work. His latest film is called A Jazzman’s Blues. According to Tyler, it’s been in the works for 27 years. Now, that’s a long time! From what I can tell from the trailer, it’s Oscar worthy. Okay.. maybe I’m a little biased. Y’all know I love me some Tyler Perry. But honestly, it really is his time.

A Jazzman’s Blues comes out on September 23, 2022 on Netflix. Check it out!

Remember, God’s timing is always best. The look on Sheryl’s face last night proved it was so worth the wait. God is so amazing!♥️

Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford

It’s almost 4:00 AM and my mom is finally aware of the date and time (still kind of off about the time of day even though it’s dark outside). She knows that certain bills have to be paid by a certain date. I told her we would worry about those things on Monday. That I would handle it all.

Yeah.. it’s almost 4:00 AM and now I’m trying not to worry about everything I have to do on Monday, or tomorrow. Shoot.. I barely remembered to pay my own bills that weren’t automatically drafted. Life. Gotta love it.

Right now, she’s falling back to sleep. I believe I’ll do the same. Tomorrow, I’ll handle whatever needs to be done then. However, today.. right now.. I’m going to stay present, get some sleep and deal with whatever Sunday brings.

Staying present.

One task and day at a time.

Going back to sleep.

Y’all have a blessed day.

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday and last night, things were really rough. My mom was in so much pain and nothing helped. Around 4:00 AM the pain medicine finally kicked in and she was finally able to fall asleep. When she woke up around 8:00 AM, she was all smiles– the pain had subsided. By mid-afternoon, she had regained some of her hearing in her right ear. Not sure if I even mentioned this in previous blogs, but my mom had lost her hearing in both ears between waking up in ICU and making it to her hospital room. Y’all, when I tell you God is sooo good!

Sitting here eating and happened to look out the window. I know it’s God’s way of letting me know everything is going to be alright. Amen
