Keep Showing Up

Laughing because I really didn’t want to show up this morning. Just being honest. I fell asleep before I could schedule my first post, then I woke up at 4:29 AM—a minute before my post usually publishes—and said I was going to just let today slide. I didn’t feel like writing anything, and after seeing my Facebook memories, I didn’t want to share any of them either. So I decided to journal. Well, while journaling, I was reminded of one of the Facebook memories I didn’t want to share. The one that I needed at the moment—to keep showing up. So, here I am showing up.

Facebook Memory: July 16, 2022

Keep showing up. No matter how uncomfortable or out of place you may feel, continue to show up. You may not quite understand where God’s leading you, but trust Him, He has a plan. All you have to do is show up.♥️

Even when I don’t feel like showing up, God shows up and nudges me forward.
I’m so grateful He loves me.♥️

Listen, God won’t let you fail. Whatever you are meant to do, or purpose you are meant to fulfill, it will be done, and done by YOU!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

THE Source

While we are so focused on what this or that leader will or will not do, God is trying to get our attention. Y’all, He’s our Source, not them. We must stay focused on Him. Whatever comes or goes, it’s God’s presence, love, peace, and provisions that will sustain us. He is the ultimate provider and miracle worker.♥️ ~ Shaun

Remember, God is love. Complete love. Not selective or conditional love.

It’s Working

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 KJV

It’s all working together for our good. It may not feel like it; and we may not see it today or tomorrow, but it is. Our job is to trust God. To completely trust Him.

Praying you have a wonderful week.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Old Habits | New Spaces

I was reading a journal entry from July 2017 where I had written, “Old habits do not belong in new spaces.” I was preparing for something new, and I heard God say I needed to change a few habits before I could move forward. Well, I did just that. I changed what I was doing at the time and God did the rest.

Be careful not to take old habits into new spaces. They don’t belong where God’s taking you. Love you!♥️ ~ Shaun

Move, so He can move.

Hello Sunday

Perceptions…

Facebook Memory: July 14, 2022

Perceptions can be very deceptive and lead to unwarranted mistrust. We must be mindful not to confuse what we perceive to be true with the actual truth.

Trust God.

This was written two years ago and is so relevant today. Perceptions can be deceptive.

Praying you have a blessed day.♥️

Love you,

Keep Hope Alive, Part 2

When I scheduled my first post to be shared, I didn’t share any of the other captions I wrote last year. I usually share the same message on multiple pages with a similar or different message. Little did I know I would actually need one of the other messages this morning.

This morning, I received a text that left me in tears, and also with a long overdue matter I should have addressed a long time ago. It was something I had been hesitant to acknowledge or address for fear of an unfavorable outcome. A million scenarios have played over and over in my mind. But this reminder has given me the strength and courage needed to do what I need to do. Here’s the caption I shared last year—

Life is good, and my God is SO AMAZING! No matter how grim things may appear, or how discouraged you may become, know that God is still on the throne and is working behind the scenes. You will SMILE again. You will LAUGH again. You will LOVE again. You will LIVE a long prosperous (in ALL areas of life) life. Stay connected to God. I promise you, He will not fail you.♥️

♥️

God is still on the throne and I know He has my back and I am covered. I got this!

Praying you have a fabulous day! Also, no matter how crazy things may seem at the moment, know that this isn’t the end. You will smile, laugh, love, and live again. He’s got you. Just make sure you don’t keep putting off things that you need to deal with. It will not only free you but it could potentially free others. Love you!♥️

Keep Hope Alive

There isn’t too much to add to last year’s Facebook memory. Just remain optimistic. Good things do happen, and dreams do come true. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Facebook Memory: July 13, 2023

Good things DO happen.

Dreams DO come true.

It is possible to love and be loved unconditionally.

Beauty can be found in even the darkest moments.

Do not allow anyone to convince you otherwise.

Keep hope alive by remaining optimistic.♥️

Life

Authentically You

There is no one as captivating as you are when you show up as your authentic self. Always show up as YOU. Love you!♥️ ~ Shaun

There’s only one you, with one life. Be sure to show up as YOU because I am definitely showing up as ME.♥️

Treasures Along Your Journey

Be careful not to miss the treasures along your journey because you are so focused on where you desire to be. Take time to breathe and take them all in. The treasures you value today are preparing you for tomorrow’s blessings.

Facebook Memory: July 12, 2022

It WILL happen when it happens. Listen, enjoy the journey while you wait. Believe me, there are so many treasures attached to your journey. You will miss them if you’re not careful.♥️

Enjoy the journey!

♥️

Love you,

Shaun
