Your Purpose

Stay strong.

Stay focused.

Your purpose is too important to allow distractions to stop you from moving forward.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

I’m listening.🙏🏽

Hmmm…

All I can say is “Hmmm…”

Life is interesting.

So much is happening.

Keep God first.

Allow Him to lead.

Stay prayed up at all times.

Stay covered.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Do not make a move without God. Don’t be fooled. All power is in God’s hands.

Chosen Vessel, Part 2

Y’all, I am still singing Marvin Sapp’s “Chosen Vessel.” Maybe this is the song of the month or the year. I’m not sure.


Hmmm…

I’m chosen.

You’re chosen.

We’re chosen for this season in time—definitely something we should not take lightly.

The message I’m getting is…

We have work to do!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

I shared the image above on this day six years ago. It’s true. Life doesn’t have to be perfect to be wonderful. Be sure to pause and discover wonders in every moment.♥️

It Will Happen: Never Stop Believing

Good Morning!☀️

Wrote the following on January 16, 2023 — “Never stop believing. In spite of the struggles, heartaches and setbacks, never stop believing that the dream God placed in your heart will happen. It may take days, months, years or even decades, but IT WILL HAPPEN. Just keep believing and leave the timing to God.”

Habakkuk 2:2 (NIV). Then the Lord replied: “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.”

A few years ago, I shared Matthew A. Cherry’s story about his desire to be nominated for an Oscar award. Eight years after he tweeted about it, he was nominated for one and won! Here’s what I shared:

Never stop believing. It will happen!♥️

Take The First Step

Good Morning☀️

As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “Faith is taking the first step when you don’t see the whole staircase.”

Have faith and take the first step.

Nearly four years ago, I took the first step to fully pursue my dreams. At that time, I couldn’t even see the next step ahead. However, as I moved forward, God revealed more steps.

Y’all… I’m so glad I took that first step. Soooo glad! Although I still can’t see the entire staircase, I can see more steps ahead. Today, I’m not as hesitant to make faith moves and I’ve become more confident with each move. I believe it’s because I’ve learned to trust God’s guidance. When He says wait, I wait—I’m not as impatient as I used to be to make things happen (timing is everything and others’ perceptions don’t matter)—and when He says move, you best believe, I move!

Again, have faith and take the first step. God’s got you!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

The Fruits Of The Spirit

I just watched another eulogy for President Jimmy Carter. Had no idea there was another one until it popped up on my YouTube feed. Y’all, this one had me bawling. He really was a great man. So selfless. His life’s mission was to make someone else’s life better and give them hope. Yeah… I’m crying!😭

Pastor Tony Lowden’s (Jimmy Carter’s pastor and friend) Eulogy

Pastor Lowden said President Carter’s life exemplified the Fruits of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:22-23):

Love
Joy
Peace
Patience
Kindness
Goodness
Faithfulness
Gentleness
& Self-control


Honestly, after seeing this eulogy, I really want to be a better person and continue his legacy. What a beautiful gift he left me, and he had no idea he was leaving me one. Yes, I am claiming it as mine.☺️ For real y’all, I am truly, truly blessed.♥️

My Journey With God, No. 49

It’s time.

Been feeling Trent Shelton’s message more and more lately. I guess you could say that’s what these past 30 years (since the knowledge of my firstborn’s conception) have been—me living in survival mode. Now, it’s time to thrive.♥️ ~Shaun
