You Can Handle It

Found in my saved photos—May 4, 2019. Photo Credit: Unknown

As we know, life will always be lifeing. Just know that you can handle any and everything thrown your way. And when things become a bit too much for you to handle, release control and pass them on to God. He’s got your back. You’re covered!♥️

Love you much,

Phenomenal, Is Who I Am

Found this beautiful reminder by Dr. Maya Angelou in my in my saved photos (April 30, 2020). “I’m a woman. Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, that’s me.”

“Phenomenal Woman” by Dr. Maya Angelou

Such a beautiful find!💎

And timely!

I’m currently reading Dr. Angelou’s book, “A Song Flung Up To Heaven.” I read it ages ago and recently found it after my mom passed. It was packed away with her things. When I read it the first time, I read it without stopping to soak in her stories. Now that I’m older and in the process of finding my space in this over-50 community and the work that I’m finding myself drawn to, her stories are hitting differently. I see her.

Mother. Daughter. Sister. Friend.

Advocacy. Politics. Equality. Human Rights. Freedom.

Love. Life. Being.

Art.

Music.

Rhythm.

I feel this.

It’s who I am.

Yes…

A phenomenal woman.

That’s me.♥️

Praise And Worship: April 30, 2025

I’ve been singing worship songs a lot lately. Sometimes I feel as though I’m singing and worshipping for others, not only for myself. So if you need this, I’m singing the following for you—

There’s nothing God can’t do, hallelujah. There’s nothing God, can’t do.

He’ll wipe the tears from your eyes. He’ll make a way out of no way—out of no way—out of no way. He’s the answer, hallelujah. There’s nothing God can’t do.

Now, I don’t know if that’s how the song actually goes, but that’s how I’m singing it this morning. Know that God’s got you! Whatever you’re going through, turn it over to Him. Place everything in His hands and at His feet. You may not see it, but He’s working behind the scenes making every crooked road straight. He’s got YOU!!

Love you!♥️

God’s Smile

Good Morning☀️

Singing—

“God has smiled on me, He has set me free. Oh, God has smiled on me, He’s been good to me.”

Thankful for God’s smile—God’s favor. I am truly blessed.

I pray that you have a wonderful day!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

God’s Patience

I am so very grateful for God’s patience with me. This journey has been long, tedious, and exhausting. I can’t even begin to count the number of times I have wanted to give up—BUT GOD!

God, thank You for being patient with me.🙏🏽

Shaun♥️
