Trust The Process

Facebook Memory: July 1, 2022

Life is interesting. We never know where it’s taking us. One minute we think we’re headed in one direction and the next, we’re headed somewhere completely different. Thankfully, in the end, we always land where we are meant to be. Trust the process.

Wishing you a wonderful first day of July! Speaking new opportunities and blessings over your month. Praying God blocks everything against you and whatever is meant for harm will instead work out in your favor.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Get Up

You have been down for much too long. Now, it’s time for you to get up! Whatever storm(s) you have been experiencing is (are) over!!

Now, GET UP!

In case you forgot, God’s got you. He’s always had you.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Hello Sunday

Wonderfully blessed. Grateful.🌸

Hello Sunday! Not sure what I should write about this morning. I scrolled through my Facebook memories and read past journal entries from this date and nothing popped out. Maybe I will have something to share by the time I write my second post.

Well, these three things/phrases just came to mind. Hesitant to write them. Perhaps they will mean something to you.

Illusions
Trust God
Be prepared

That’s it! Very random.

Maybe I should have shared one of my Facebook memories instead. Lol. We shall see what I post next. Until then, please enjoy your Sunday!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Side note: I really hate feeling like the weird person every time I share things like this or random prayers. I promise y’all I am not crazy. What I am going to do is trust God, even if I sound crazy.🙏🏽

**Had to come back and add this part.**

After I published this post and stopped trying to figure out what those random words/phrases meant, I heard “Confidence.” My confidence. I must be confident in what I know God has for me to share. I focus too much on not wanting to sound weird or being called crazy. It’s not about me. It’s about God and His glory (which I shared yesterday).

Obedience
Acceptance

I hear You, God.♥️

The Transition

Five years ago today, I wrote, “Transitioning to something new,” and now I can’t help but laugh at how naive I was. I used to think that I would become the person I wanted to be overnight and that I would live the next 25 to 50 years as the finished product. HA! Little did I know that transition is an ongoing process and it takes time. You have to go through challenges, learn from them, and then go through even more. If you want to keep growing and reaching your full potential, the process of evolving never stops. Don’t know about you, but I want to keep evolving until my final breath.

Here’s what I shared on June 29, 2019:

Still excited by the transition. I am forever in awe of God’s work. Loving the woman I have become and looking forward to meeting the woman I am becoming.♥️

For God’s Glory, Part 2

While I was writing my previous post, “For God’s Glory,” I kept hearing Tasha Cobbs Leonard singing, “For Your Glory.” So, I added her song to my Instagram and YouTube posts. I guess you can say it’s my praise and worship song for today. Everything I do is all for God’s glory, not mine. He’s my reason. Amen.

Wishing you a wonderfully, blessed day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Y’all, I’m 51!

Y’all, I still cannot believe that I am over 50! Seems like a dream. I was just 21, yesterday. Lol! Not sure what I thought 50 would be like or how I would feel. Honestly, as I have said before, I really didn’t put too much thought into life beyond 50. It was just an age on my timeline. An age that I had decided would mark the second half of my life where I would do anything I pleased. The first half was the test run for trial and error. HA!!! Another “Aha” moment. I guess you could say I manifested this too. Wow! I just love my life, and I just love how God loves me. Definitely blessed.♥️

Beyond blessed. Loving me!! Loving this side of 50.🥰

Divinely Created

Have you ever wondered why you are not like others? Why you think and act differently?

The answer: You were divinely created to be different. You were never made to fit in. Everything that makes you you was done purposefully. Embrace who you are—all of you—and SHINE!✨♥️ ~Shaun

I really do love you!! Be who you were created to be and own it!

God Is Love

Keeping it simple.

Spread love, not hate.

Wishing you a blessed weekend.

Love you!♥️

Surrender Your All

Wanted to share this message with you. It blessed me earlier today, and it is still on my mind after several hours. It’s about surrendering to God. Not surrendering in a few areas of your life, but in all areas. Here is what I wrote when I reshared Joy’s reel. By the way, Joy Bradford, is my cousin’s beautiful wife. She is a purpose coach and co-pastor (along with my cousin) of New Vision Fellowship Church in Brandon, MS.

My response/caption:

THIS word right here!!! I remember when I used to pick and choose which areas I wanted God to handle. The others, I just knew I could handle them best. Boy, was I wrong! Not sure how many times I had to bump my head before completely surrendering my ALL to God. Y’all, it was the BEST decision I made. Can’t believe I was so afraid to do so. Listen, when I tell you God’s got you, believe me, He’s got you! #BeyondBlessed ♥️

Honestly, it wasn’t until I began to completely trust God that I was able to surrender my all. It wasn’t until I said and truly meant, “Any way You bless me Lord, I will be satisfied.” And y’all, I mean this wholeheartedly. I know His plans are not always aligned with mine. However, I do know—which was why I was so hesitant to fully surrender—He’s not going to bless me with anything less than His best. I now know this, and I trust Him. Amen

That’s all. Just wanted to share. Hope it blesses you as much as it has blessed me. It’s another point in my life that I never imagined reaching.

Please enjoy the rest of your day.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
