Social Media… Hmmm

How do you use social media?

I guess you can say I have a love-hate relationship with social media. I have several accounts on different platforms—personal, business/professional, and a few I manage. The information that floods those accounts can sometimes become a bit overwhelming, so I disconnect from time to time to protect my peace.

Unfortunately, I cannot disconnect forever. My business, professional, and the accounts I manage are primarily used as hubs for information and resources for others. My personal accounts allow me to stay in touch with family and friends and to receive and share inspirational messages.

So, that somewhat answers how I typically use social media.

And y’all, let’s not talk about those crazy algorithms… UGH!!😩

My Journey With God, No. 86

Found the following in one of my journal entries from 2015. I wrote that it was a Facebook post I had made in 2008.

“I’m here! God made me the person I am. However, the person I am today will not be the person I am tomorrow. God is so wonderful that He allows us to grow each day. I know that in everyday ahead of me there will be learning experiences and teachable moments. Can’t say it enough, God is awesome!”


That was 17 years ago!

Today, I’m saying the same—I’m here, and God made me the person I am. And I absolutely LOVE who He created.🥰

Thank You, Lord, for loving me. You are an AMAZING God.♥️

Hello Sunday

Happy Easter!☀️

Today is Resurrection Sunday!

Matthew 28:5–7 NIV

5. The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

6. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

7. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”


The fact that Jesus conquered death gives me hope. Not even death can stop God’s greatness! Amen

I pray you have a wonderfully blessed and relaxing day. You deserve it.♥️

I love you always,

Shaun

Hope

Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind.

Hope is the first thing that comes to mind. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I can bring a little more hope into the world.

Remaining Hopeful✨

Second Chances

The song of the hour—or the day—because I have been singing it for a few hours now is “Second Chance” by Hezekiah Walker. The song says—

Show me
All of my wrongs
Forgive me
And make strong
Oh Save me
Restore my song 
For You’re the God of a second chance

You gave me
A second chance
You forgave me like only You can 
You gave me 
A second chance

Lyrics: LyricFind


Y’all, God is so good. I’m so thankful for second, third, fourth, and even 100 chances. Sometimes, He gives me more chances than I can count to get things right. I can’t express enough how grateful and blessed I am that He loves me.

By the way, nothing major is going on. It’s the little things He’s been working with me on that I don’t always get right. Most of the time, I don’t pay much attention to them until He says, “Look, you’re going to keep going through this cycle until you get this right.” Today, I had one of those moments. Sometimes, it’s not the things we consider significant that keep us from moving ahead. Often, it’s the small things we keep ignoring that are most important. We must remember that those small things are always connected to something greater.

I am forever grateful for God’s love, mercy, kindness, patience (boy, is He patient☺️), and grace. I am blessed.♥️
