My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Good Morning! Not sure if you realize this but every day you’re changing. You’re not the same person you were a decade ago, a year, not even a month ago. No, you are evolving and growing. You’re becoming that person God created you to be. So, whenever you feel like life is at a standstill or isn’t going as planned, remember where you used to be compared to where you are now. You’re so much stronger and wiser, and it’s beautiful.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Good Morning! Today’s message is quite simple. Desire more — remove the limits. Remove the limits so God can work freely. Yes… Allow Him to do what He does.
Praying you have a wonderful weekend!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Today is turning out to be one of those days where I am just going with the flow. There’s no rush to do anything. No set schedule. I’m just letting life flow. I’m allowing both goodness and love to flow freely through me, as well as surround me.♥️ ~Shaun
Nothing that you have gone through or are currently going through will be wasted. NOTHING! Not one thing!! How wonderful is that!
Here’s a word from my cousin, Joy. I pray it blesses you as much as it’s blessed me. Love you.♥️ ~Shaun
Good Morning! I don’t know about you but I am so grateful for God’s protection. For His protection from things I often don’t know I need protecting from. Also, I am forever grateful for His love, mercy, grace, and favor. I am beyond blessed.♥️ ~Shaun

“Just because your intentions are pure doesn’t mean everyone else’s are. Stay true to who you are and keep doing what you do. Use your God-given discernment to stay protected. In other words, if it doesn’t feel right, it’s not right.♥️”
Protect your heart, but let love in. Not necessarily the romantic kind of love, but love in general. Don’t be so closed off from past hurts that you do not allow yourself to experience true love. The kind of love that’s joyous, patient, and kind. Let it in. You deserve it. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun
Good Morning! While I was reading my journal entry from August 10, 2017, this particular statement stood out—
“I let it all go. I actually just gave up on it, and a peace came over me.”
This statement reminded me of the scripture I have on a note that’s been in my wallet since September 2014 (shared several blogs ago).
Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:7 NLT
At the time, I was going through a difficult time, financially. According to my journal entry, several bills were due and I didn’t have any money for gas; didn’t know how I would commute back and forth to work that week. When I tell you I was going through it! Just reading what I was going through seems surreal, as do so many other difficult times. When I write about gratitude and feeling truly blessed, it’s because I am no longer where I used to be. Y’all, I made it through. Didn’t think I would, but I did.
When I decided to release the stress and stop trying to solve everything, a sense of peace came over me. After a while, everything worked out, and I was able to move past the situation. A few months later, I started my first consulting business, and a few months after that, I received a promotion.
Over time, I have learned to let go of things that are beyond my control, things that only God can do. When I do, I always experience this indescribable peace. Not only is it a peace of mind, but my entire space becomes peaceful. It’s a peace that I can only describe as the peace of God.
I pray that you have a peaceful day. My daughter is coming to visit so I’m excited. Can’t wait to give her a hug and love on her for a while.🥰
Love you,
Shaun
Funny side note — Just thought of this as I wrote, “Love you.” A few days ago, I saw a post that said there’s a significant difference between saying “I love you” and “Love you.” It said “I love you” is like the Eiffel Tower and “Love you” is like a rundown power structure. Well, know this, my “Love you” is the finest of all structures in existence. It’s from the heart and comes with hugs, prayers, love, and a sprinkle of hope. Now, “I love you,” is only reserved for a select few. That’s the crème of the crème. Lol
Here’s another gem from my Facebook memories. Y’all, when I wrote it, I had no idea I would ask God to make this side of 50 different. Thought I only needed to tweak a few things. Yeah, that was before the Year50 purge. (Now I can laugh.) But God knew!
As Bishop T. D. Jakes said—please read the blog below for the full impact—“You cannot be who you’re going to be and who you used to be, at the same time.”

I cannot become who I’m meant to be and be the same person I used to be, at the same time. Wouldn’t be honoring God if I did.
Maturing
Growing
Evolving
Becoming Me
Y’all, if I wanted this side of 50 to be different, I had to intentionally make it different. And that last sentence in my caption. Whew! I would not have been honoring God had I remained the same. Loving this space I am in.♥️

Side note: I am torn between sticking to my schedule of sharing my second post ~ 10:30 AM and posting right after I write. What do you think? Should I stick to my schedule or ditch it and post freely? Today, I’m ditching the schedule because it’s my birthday month!☺️🎉
Listen, this final month of Year50 I am intentionally living it to my fullest. Today, I am letting my hair down and letting Charlene (I also named my hair years ago—Donna inspired) do her thing!! Charlene, do you because you’re 50 too! Yes, I am intentionally enjoying this last month. Blocking any and everything that tries to stop it.
This is Year50!♥️

In last year’s blog post I wrote— “You do not have to know where God is taking you; just trust Him to lead.”
Listen, God is the Master of plot twists. For years, you can think your life is headed in one direction only to have it shift in another. I have finally learned to stop trying to guess where He’s taking me—which I now realize was a form of control on my end—and just allow Him to move as He sees fit. All I do now is say, “I see You, God,” and keep on moving. I know He has me in His hands; and wherever He’s taking me is somewhere wonderfully beautiful because He loves me and I trust Him.
My advice. Trust God to lead. Release control and let Him take you wherever He’s taking you—because He’s going to do it anyway. Smile. Resisting only causes unnecessary stress and anxiety. As they say, “Let go and let God.” He knows what’s best and He’s got you! Love you!♥️
