Quietness Is Necessary

Resting in God’s peace.

I believe we could all use a bit of quietness right now. There’s a lot of noise going on. I’m going to unplug for a minute…just a minute. I thought about scheduling my posts for a few days, but that ain’t gonna happen. I can barely schedule them hours in advance because sometimes I change my mind about what I want to share. So…yeah…only a minute. If it’s in the Lord’s will, I’ll talk to y’all tomorrow.

Love you!♥️

Shaun

P.S. Keep the prayers going.🙏🏽♥️

Drown Out The Noise

The song of the hour is Smokie Norful’s “I Need A Word.” The song says (Lyrics: Musixmatch)—

Life seems so loud
I’ve been too proud
So, Lord, what do I do?
I just need a word from You

Oh, I need a word
Tell me which way to turn
I need a word
Tell me which way I should go
I need a word

To tell me just what to do
Please, send a word
God, I need to hear from You
Drown out the noise
Let me hear Your voice
I need a word from You

Drown out the noise so you can hear God’s voice—which is what I’m finally doing because there’s absolutely nothing I can do at the moment.

Yes, drown out the noise. God is speaking.

Guess what He’s saying?

Trust Me.

I got you.

Smile.♥️


Love you always,

Shaun

An On Time Word

Good Morning.☀️

I must remember that I am God’s child.

This memory made me smile. It’s so timely. So many can use a little encouragement at the moment, including myself.

Over the past few days, I have watched my lifelong dream of a kinder, healthier, and safer world crumble before my eyes. First, the president withdrew us from the Paris Climate Agreement, and then the World Health Organization (this one hurt!). Now, there is uncertainty regarding the future of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Institutes of Health. If another outbreak, of any kind, were to occur, no one would know about it. This means we will be unable to prevent avoidable deaths. And then there’s everything else that moved us forward as a nation that’s now setting us back. So, yeah… this has been one tough week.

Soooo….

Seeing the words “Be Encouraged” made me smile and momentarily gave me a sense of hope.

I know God is with us. I know God is in control. I also know that certain things have to happen for better to come. Since the beginning of time, there hasn’t been an era without conflict, a great disaster, or some form of devastation. Well, now it’s our time.

I’m staying in prayer and trusting God. I won’t say too much, but God had already prepared me for this right before my 50th birthday. At the time, I didn’t understand what He was saying, but now I do.

Y’all, I know God’s got us. I don’t doubt that at all. However, I am still human, and my heart hurts.


This is all I have at the moment. I pray you have an amazing day!

Stay encouraged.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Thankful

Thanking God for His love, mercy, and grace. For His covering and guidance. For protecting me from hurts and harm. For keeping my family safe and healthy.

God, I thank you.🙏🏽

Beyond Blessed


There’s so much happening at the moment. We must remember that what affects one affects all.

I pray you’re having a wonderful day. May God continue to bless and keep you in his care. Stay covered.♥️
