Life Lessons Have A Purpose

Shaun Bradford

The saying is true, “You live and you learn.” Although it may sound a bit harsh, life lessons serve a purpose. They are not meant to break you, but to shape and mold the person you are becoming—that bolder, wiser, more resilient person you are meant to be. Life lessons also prepare you for future blessings. Embrace them. Learn from them. And grow!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Question…

Shaun Bradford

Are you doing what God asked you to do?

Or…

Are you doing everything except what He asked?

OR…

Are you doing what God asked, but worried about others’ opinions, so you’re not following through as you should?

Hmmm…

In other words, are you being completely obedient?

Just asking!♥️

When we move, He moves.

I love you always,

Shaun

Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford

Happy Sunday!☀️

I pray you’ve had a lovely weekend.🌺 I had the pleasure of spending time with my daughter, so mine was quite lovely.🥰

Here’s a friendly reminder from last year—Stay in the fight. Keep fighting for what you believe in. Keep fighting for your dreams. Things may appear to be going any which way but up; however, I promise you—because God’s promised me, as well as shown me through past experiences—that if you just hold on a little while longer, things will work out in your favor.

Stay in the ring.

You will win!

That’s all I have for you this morning. I pray you have a ridiculously blessed day! May it be filled with love, joy, peace and laughter.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 107

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

How are you?

I’m hoping all is well.🌺

**After reading what I wrote, I decided to leave it unedited. I don’t want to edit it. These are my current thoughts and feelings. This is how it all spilled out.**♥️

When I woke up this morning, I heard, “Remember your ‘Why’.” Then, as I was scrolling through my Facebook memories I saw this picture of myself from a few years ago, and I remembered my ‘Why.’

She is my why. Her purpose, passion, goals, and dreams are my Why. I told her that I’d always have her. In good times and bad. No matter what came or went. In high moments and lows. She could always count on me.

Yesterday, that “Big Beautiful” ugly, disgusting bill passed the senate and it hurt me to my core. Food security, nutritional wellness, and health equity, just a few things I’m passionate about, were all stripped away with a vote. I did my part. I contacted my U.S. senators and representative, even though I already knew how they’d vote. Yes, I contacted them anyway.

So, today, I must remember my ‘Why.’ I must continue trusting God to have even the smallest and most vulnerable of us—the ones who have a voice but don’t realize they have one. I must continue to believe for them, to work for them. They are also my ‘Why.’ My colleagues are also my ‘Why.’ Many of their positions have already been cut, and they are struggling to move forward.

Hurt.

Heart broken.

However, today is a new day, and I cannot lose hope. Today, the bill goes back to the House of Representatives for revisions and a final vote. No matter the outcome, I must remember my ‘Why’ and keep going.

At the moment, I’m hearing Louis Armstrong singing “What A Wonderful World.” I can see those skies of blue—for everyone. I see every baby, every child, every adult and elder with access to healthy foods and the best of health care. I can see it. No matter what, I must not lose sight of this.

Don’t get me wrong, my faith in God is still strong. It’s my faith in humanity that’s a bit faulty.

Which means… I must lean on God even more, not only for myself but for those who have lost faith or are losing faith.

That’s all I have for now. I pray your day is just as lovely as you are.

Sending lots of love your way!♥️
