Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning! Here’s what I shared on September 22, 2019, five years ago.

When I tell you this one post has had me crying for a few minutes now. So many emotions about this memory, about this particular “purse note.” It was the very first of my notes. When I wrote it ten years ago, I was told to keep it near and to reference it often. That I would need it. I had no idea what that meant, but I was obedient.

Over the years, I began to read it less and less often. At one point I was reading it almost daily. At times, I questioned some of the things I had written inside (nothing juicy, just things only I would eventually understand). This year, I’ve only read it twice. The crazy part is, it has actually taken ten years for me to fully grasp what I wrote. Hence, the reason I’m crying.

As I wrote a few blogs ago (had no idea it would tie into this one), be obedient. God really does know the outcome. He sees and knows all. Yes, I’m pretty emotional behind this one. Y’all, I just can’t believe I have kept this note in my purse for 10 years!! I am blown away by my compliance, my belief, my obedience (over the years), my willingness to follow God’s word and allow Him to lead (took a minute…well, almost 10 years to get here). Talk about mind blowing!

Whew! I’m going to end here and leave you with this. You never know what you can do until you do it. Allow God to lead. You may not understand the assignment, and half of the time you may even think you’re crazy. Just do what He asks. As I wrote on the back of the note, “God blessings are better than life.” I used to cringe every time I read it without the apostrophe (God’s). However, today, I see it differently. God blessings—meaning the size of the blessings—are better than life.

That’s all I have for you now. I pray you have a wonderfully, blessed Sunday.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Divine Connections Are Amazing

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning! On this date last year, I wrote:

Divine connections cannot be created, duplicated or forced. They just happen.

You never see the connections coming.

Y’all, I am so grateful for the divine connections I have made over the years. They’ve always come at the right time. While some connections have been brief, others have lasted much, much longer—both having a significant impact on my life.

Honestly, I am forever in awe of how God orchestrates these connections. It’s literally me minding my own business then BAM, out of the blue, the connection happens. It’s bumping into someone at a meeting; us responding to the same social media post; our kids attending school together; or some sort of weird thing that just happens out of nowhere—the kind that can’t be explained (the most interesting kind). As I said before, these connections just happen; and I must say, they’re pretty amazing!

As years come along, I am looking forward to even more divine connections. Y’all, there’s so much more for me to do, and I know I will not be able to do them on my own. Plus, for me, life is just more interesting and fun when God places the right people in my world. Smile

Well, that’s it for now. I pray you have a great weekend!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Just Be Obedient

Shaun Bradford

When I tell you God just checked me! Laughing. I heard to do something, something that made me somewhat uncomfortable. Basically, it was out of the norm. Well, as I often do when God asks me to do something that shakes my comfort level, I started second guessing if I heard correctly. Then, I wanted to know the outcome. “What would happen if I did it?” “What would happen if I didn’t?” Also, “Why?” Why did I need to do it? That’s when I was hit with the, “Because I said so.” HA!!

Me: “Okay, I hear You, God.” DONE!

Listen, if you consider yourself a vessel of God and claim He can use you as He pleases, get ready to have uncomfortable moments. From my experience, the moments are never detrimental, they’re just uncomfortable. You can do it. My advice, release control—yes, it’s a control thing—and be obedient. God knows the outcome, and He’s the only one who needs to know.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

In Sync With God

Good Morning! God is working. He’s moving. Make sure you’re working and moving with Him. Keep going until you see what He said. Then, await further instructions.

That’s the message!♥️
