Let God Lead

Shaun Bradford

As I was scrolling through my Facebook memories, I saw a post from ten years ago that prompted me to see what I had written in my journal on February 26, 2015. Here’s how my entry began—

February 26, 2015, Shaun’s Journal Entry

“Lord please help me allow you to lead. Help me let you have total control over my life. I must admit giving up control is scary, but at this moment- tired, broke, and confused, I have no other choice.

Letting go and letting God! Lord please guide my footsteps today.”

I also wrote that I was listening to “Something About the Name Jesus.” Smiling. Smiling because I’m not where I used to be. Smiling because I made it through, and I definitely couldn’t have done it without reverencing Jesus. I’m truly blessed.

Allow God to guide your footsteps. He won’t lead you wrong.♥️

I love you always,

Shaun

Never Give Up On Your Dreams

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Never give up on your dreams!

One good thing about social media is being able to witness God’s greatness through testimonies of growth, success, and manifested dreams. It’s the testimonies of others overcoming obstacles and hardships to finally succeeding and excelling that keep me believing. If God can do it for them, He most certainly can do it for me because I know He loves me. So, I cannot and will not give up on my dreams.

And YOU cannot afford to give up on yours, either. No matter how long it takes, never, ever give up on your dreams!♥️

I love you always,

Shaun

With God ALL things are possible.

Today’s A New Day

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Today’s a new day! Be sure to leave yesterday’s worries, fears, hurts, and disappointments behind. Start today with a fresh mind and open heart, expecting great things to happen. Remember, God is still in control.

I pray this week brings you peace and clarity. May God’s love and grace surround you. Remain open to new ideas and opportunities that align with God’s divine purpose for your life. Remember, more of God and less of you. It’s all about God and His glory, not ours.♥️

I love you always,

Shaun

I Still Believe

Shaun Bradford

Being reminded of my “Why” keeps me hopeful.

I hadn’t looked at all of my Facebook memories until moments ago. Six years ago, I created my social media platform, “Mississippi Thriving.” I posted my official welcome message in December of that year, so you may see me celebrate milestones in February and December.

Here’s what I wrote on this date in 2019 and 2020.

My nephews. Only two of my other babies. I have a lot of them.🥰

In the past six years, I have connected with so many wonderful people who share my same vision for a healthier, brighter, and thriving Mississippi. Although it may feel as if we’ll never see it happen in our lifetimes, I still believe it’s possible.

I must keep hope alive.♥️

Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford

Happy Sunday!☀️

Psalm 118:21–24 (NIV)

21. I will give You thanks, for You answered me; You have become my salvation.

22. The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;

23. the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24. The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad.

Rejoice!

Today’s a new day, which means there’s still hope for something miraculously wonderful to happen. Never give up hope.

I love you,

Shaun
