If God said it, believe it!♥️ ~Shaun

My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
If God said it, believe it!♥️ ~Shaun

God is still in control. Trust Him to lead, even when you know think you can do things faster or better. Believe me you can’t. What I have learned from experience, and I am still learning, my interference never helps the situation. It just prolongs it. My advice (and you best believe this is a word for me too) step back, stand still, and watch God work.
Praying you have a wonderfully, blessed day. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

You have been blessed with many gifts that are meant to be shared. Don’t hold on to them. Give someone what you wish someone would have given you.
Blessings flow when we pour into others.♥️

Our blessing and talents were meant to be shared, not held on to.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Two years ago, I shared a “Hello Sunday” blog about manifestation. It was based on film director, Matthew Cherry, winning his first Oscar. Eight years before he won it, or was even well known, he tweeted, “I’m gonna be nominated for an Oscar one day. Already claiming it.” And he was nominated and won!
Last night, I watched a once “YouTuber,” Quinta Brunson, win her first Emmy award for best comedic actress. I was so happy for her! She didn’t say it, but I am pretty sure the thought of “what if” crossed her mind at some point. Watching her evolve into the person she was always meant to become has been wonderful to witness. I remember watching her YouTube videos. Loved the “He got money!” videos. She kept me laughing. Watching her on Abbott Elementary has been a joy as well.
Side note: For those who know me, know I love watching God work! Y’all, it makes my heart smile. The journey and evolution is everything.
Anyhoo… Trying not to get sidetracked.
In the “Hello Sunday” below, I wrote about some of my own moments. Yesterday, or the day before, I wrote about not taking any leaps in a while. Well, as I wrote in 2022, I believe I am already living in what I manifested. Not completely living in it, but living in the journey of becoming and achieving everything I dreamed and imagined as a kid. Perhaps my manifestation is not a destination but living within my experiences.
I wrote about writing in my journal how I wished I could live far away. Then, within six months, I had joined the Air Force and was living in Germany. I also gave a few more examples; however, those weren’t all, there are plenty more! As I said, I believe my manifestations are played out in my journey. I love the details of the smaller manifestations. The things that cross my mind then just happen. The small things that make me smile. Don’t get me wrong, I have greater ambitions and so many more big dreams waiting to come to fruition; however, I am choosing to live in every experience now.
Here is what I have learned about manifestations:
1) You will never see it coming until you are in it. It’s all about God’s timing, not ours.
2) Nothing ever happens as we imagined or dreamed. It’s always better.
Remember, God is always working. Do not give up on your dreams, and enjoy the journey along the way. Be careful not to miss out on the small experiences. They are leading you to the bigger ones. Love you!♥️ ~ Shaun
Woke up with the song, “Don’t Cry,” by Kirk Franklin blaring in my head. Had to listen to it. Listen, Jesus is not dead. He’s very much alive. We are truly, truly blessed. Keep believing!♥️ ~Shaun
Don’t Cry by Kirk Franklin
Lyrics: AZLyrics.com
Why do you cry?
He has risen
Why are you weeping?
He’s not dead
Why do you cry?
He has risen
Why are you weeping?
He’s not dead
He paid it all on that lonely highway (hey)
And his anointing I can feel
He shed his blood (oh oh oh)
For my transgressions (oh oh oh)
And by his stripes
We are healed
Why do you cry?
He has risen
Why are you weeping?
He’s not dead
So as you go through life’s journey (journey)
Don’t you worry, lift up your head
Don’t you cry
(oh oh oh)
Stop your weeping
(oh oh oh)
He has risen
He’s not dead
Don’t cry
Wipe your eyes
He’s not dead
(oh oh oh oh)
Don’t weep
He’s not asleep
Jehovah
He’s not dead
(oh oh oh oh)
Don’t cry
Wipe your eyes
He’s not dead
(oh oh oh oh)
Don’t cry
Wipe your eyes
He’s not dead
(oh oh oh oh)
Don’t cry
Wipe your eyes
He’s not dead
(oh oh oh oh)
Don’t cry
Wipe your eyes
He’s not dead
(oh oh oh oh)
Don’t cry
Wipe your eyes
He’s not dead
Since it’s after midnight and I am wide awake I thought I would go ahead and post my first blog for today.

Great things take time. Be patient with yourself and trust the process. Your time is coming.
Note: Always remember that your greatness is defined by you [and God] not by others.

Wishing you a peaceful night and a wonderful week. Stay safe. Stay warm (it’s cold, y’all). And be blessed. Love you!♥️

What if I fall? Oh, but my darling, what if you fly?
E. H.
That was a quote I shared five years ago—January 14, 2019. Next is the caption that accompanied it:
Happy Monday! Wishing you a blessed week! Here’s today’s social media find. Take the leap. Yes, there’s a possibility that things won’t go as planned (been there); however, there’s also a possibility that they might AND exceed your expectations (been there, too). You’ll never know, if you never leap. You already know God is going to catch you– FLY!
During my adulthood, I have taken numerous leaps—mostly spontaneously. As I mentioned above, some things went as I hoped and/or exceeded my expectations, while others didn’t. Either way, I never fell or failed. Somehow I always managed to fly. All praises to God.
Lately, I have not taken any leaps (it’s been three years). I guess you could say I have been living a pretty quiet, unadventurous life—been playing it safe. Honestly, I am not sure if I am just tired or if the adventures have ceased. Hopefully, it’s not the latter. There just has to be more adventures and leaps in my future. Y’all, I’m too young to stop leaping now. Sighing
Why am I hearing Donald Lawrence singing, “The Best Is Yet To Come”? Shaking my head. My thoughts and their theme music. Even my subconscious mind has a sense of humor. My life… Laughing
Well, that’s all for now. I pray you have a wonderful day!
Be Blessed♥️

Passions come and passions go. However, I believe true passions never leave. If you have had the same core passions from childhood, they never truly leave, even when you try to suppress them to fit into your adult narrative. Nope, they stick around and peek through every now and then. Listen, life is too short to keep suppressing what you love. Let your passions shine. Be who you are. Love who you are. You are your passions. Embrace them.
Live your truth.
Follow your passions.
Be who God created you to be.
Oh…and forget what others may think or say. They are going to talk either way so let them talk. Just do you!
Love you!♥️

Today’s Facebook memory basically falls in line with the pruning I experienced several months ago, and the decluttering I wrote about before the new year. When we really start growing—especially mentally, emotionally and spiritually—we begin to discover we have to let a few things go (sometimes people). We have to let go of things that trigger and/or hinder our growth or progression.
From experience, I know this is not easy thing to do. I still struggle with it. I believe it’s difficult because some things have been with us for years if not our entire lives (certain mindsets, behaviors, and beliefs). Believe me, it takes a lot of discernment and a good relationship with God to know what to let go of and what to hold on to because if we are not careful, we could toss what we need and hold on to what we don’t. Yes, discernment is very important. Also, being still so we can clearly hear God’s voice is utmost important. I know…sounds like a brutal task, doesn’t it? But it’s not. Smile…
Listen, God will never steer us wrong or leave us without. If we accidentally let go of things (opportunities, relationships, etc.) we should have held on to, we will receive them again. Believe me, whatever is meant to stay in our lives, will stay. It’s called God’s mercy, grace, and favor. For those who know, know there’s nothing like it! Amen
Okay… I’m done rambling. Just know that in the end everything always works out because God’s got us!♥️
Here’s today’s memory.
Facebook Memory: January 13, 2022
Walking away from things that no longer serve us is often difficult and sometimes painful, yet it is so necessary for growth. I pray God gives you the strength to walk away from things that no longer serve you so that you are able to move forward freely.

Sending blessings and love your way. Have a wonderful weekend!♥️

The song, “I Love You Lord Today,” has been playing over and over in my head since I opened my eyes. I guess you can say my spirit is setting the mood for the day.
The song says–
I love you, I love you
I love you Lord today
Because you care for me in such special way
That’s why I praise you
I lift you up and I magnify your name
That’s why my heart is filled with praise

Praying you have a wonderful day and beautiful weekend.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
