My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
This isn’t going to be long. Just watched this message by Pastor Steven Furtick. When I tell you it’s confirmation that I cannot give up. Y’all, I am not too late or too old to achieve my goals and dreams. Everything will happen according to God’s plan and timing.
I just love the way God loves me. This message was just for me.♥️
Here’s Pastor Furtick’s message: The Limp Won’t Make You Late.

This is another gem from November 5, 2022 that has reminded me of my “why”. I must have been looking for something important that day and found my first passport. I was 17 years old when I got it. Seventeen and ready to take on the world. Y’all, I just knew I was going to change the world. Then life happened. As I told my daughter this morning, everything I thought was working against me, I now see it was working for me. God knew I wasn’t ready. That I needed to experience life and work on a few things before I could move forward. It really is true, life does not happen to us, it happens for us.
As I said in today’s Hello Sunday, I must stay focused. This dream has been following me most of my life. So many times I tried to shake it but couldn’t. So, I must keep going until it comes to fruition!♥️

Happy Sunday! I know I have been sharing a lot of Facebook memories lately instead of actually writing. I have exactly one week left in this term. Afterwards, I will begin drawing and sharing new writings again. Until then, please enjoy my memories.
Facebook Memory: November 5, 2022
Today, I encourage you to stay focused on the bigger picture. The goal. The dream. The mission. The purpose.
I also found this gem from the same day.
It definitely takes a while to build a dream. Seems like I have been building most of my life. My dreams may not have come to fruition yet, but I know they’re coming. I can feel it! I cannot stop working towards them.
It’s reminders like Tyler’s posts; meeting Dr. David Satcher and Chefs Leah Chase and Marcus Samuelsson; seeing Carol Moseley Braun pop up in my Facebook memories; and endless inspirational and motivational YouTube videos from too many people to name, that keep me going. They remind me of my “why”. There is so much more I am meant to do. So many more lives I am meant to touch. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am meant to help those in need. Not on a local, state or national level, but on a global level. Last night I dreamed I was somewhere helping a group of people and I was speaking French. Y’all I have to stay focused and push through this process. I must see this thing through.
Listen, I love y’all! Thank you so much for supporting me and reading my blogs. I really do appreciate you. As I mentioned above, soon I will be back with new content. Praying you have a fabulous Sunday.
Be Blessed!♥️

You will never experience the peace you rightfully deserve if you continue to say “yes” to any and everything. “No” is a complete sentence. No explanation needed.♥️ ~Shaun
Facebook Memory: November 4, 2022
Be patient. Everything will happen at its appointed time.♥️
No matter how long you have waited, keep waiting. It is better to wait for God’s best than settle for less and then try to mold what you settled for into God’s best. It doesn’t work that way. I don’t know about you, but I would rather wait for God’s best knowing that everything He has for me is only for me. Yes… ONLY for me.
My advice—be patient and wait on God. Allow Him to lead. He hasn’t forgotten about you. Remember, He is always working and everything will happen when it is time. Believe me, nothing or no one can stop it.
Love you!♥️

The song, “God’s Grace,” by Trin-I-Tee 5:7, often comes to mind when I think of grace. The song says–
Everything you need is right here
All of your problems, yes I’m aware
And when you’re down, I’ll be right there
You can call on me ’cause
I hear your prayer
No other name can put joy where there is pain
He will do it for you but first you gotta know that it’s by God
… It’s by God’s grace
All things through Christ Jesus
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
I’m so glad to know (So glad)
It’s by God’s grace
All things through Christ Jesus
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Lyrics: MusixMatch
So grateful for God’s grace.♥️ ~Shaun
Facebook Memory: November 3, 2016
In 1992, my goal was to help end world poverty. Carol Moseley Braun was my inspiration. I had so many goals. When you’re young you tend believe that you have all the answers. Well, poverty is still here and will always be here. My goal is to help improve the quality of life of those living in poverty. I may not be able to save them, but I can help them.
Oh, I also wanted to be the Surgeon General of the United States. Boy did I have goals!😊
Transparent moment…
My decision to return to school was not one that I made rashly. I know myself, and I know that this would have been something that would have hung over my head for years. I would have been okay with not finishing; however, I also would have wondered what would have been had I finished.
Today, I have a little over one week left in this term. I am mentally drained and a little discouraged. I am doing well, but not my best (yeah… I know this). I needed to see this memory today. I needed to be reminded of my “why.” I can do this!
That’s all for today. I may or may not make a second post today. Praying you have a wonderful weekend.
Be Blessed!♥️

Singing–
Hold on, just a little while longer
Hold on, just a little while longer
Hold on, just a little while longer
Everything is going to be alright
Pray on, just a little while longer
Pray on, just a little while longer
Pray on, just a little while longer
Everything is going to be alright
Love you!♥️

Feeling stumped, unheard, unmotivated, overwhelmed, sad, confused, defeated, heartbroken, or discouraged?
Seek God. He’s the answer.
Yes… God is the answer.♥️ ~ Shaun
