Blessings Await You

Shaun Bradford

You’ve made it this far. Don’t stop now. Open the door.

Open The Door

Happy Thursday!☀️

Today’s song of the day is “Blessings” by Theresa Phondo. The song says—

Blessings on blessings on me
Blessings on blessings on me
Everywhere I go they’ll be
Everywhere I go they’ll be
Blessings on blessings on me

“Blessings” by Theresa Phondo

Blessings surround us both, and even more awaits us. Be sure to stay present. You don’t want to miss the blessings that are coming your way.♥️

I love you,

Believe Me, He’s Real

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

This morning I woke up singing Kirk Franklin’s “Let Me Touch You.” The song says—

Sometimes to me You seem so far away, and I wonder how to make it through the day. But if I can touch the hem of Your garment, Your power, I know, You can heal. Jesus let me touch You and see if You are real.

Let Me Touch You by Kirk Franklin

Listen, Jesus [God] is so very real, and He’s always near. When you don’t feel Him, just call His name. Never hesitate to call Him.

As you can see, my day has started off with worship. I pray that you’ve experienced God’s goodness as I have. No, life hasn’t been all roses. Sometimes it’s been very hard, so hard that at times I didn’t know if I would make it. But God never left my side. Y’all, I’m so blessed—so very blessed.

This is all for now. Wishing you a wonderful day! May you experience God’s goodness in real time. Yeah… I want you to feel it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Praise God In Advance

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

I’m still singing Marvin Sapp’s “Praise Him In Advance.” I guess it’s the song of the week. Smile. The song says—

That’s why I praise Him with my hands. That’s why I praise Him with a dance. He’s given me a second chance. Come on, let’s praise Him in advance.

This morning I’m thanking God for a hundred second chances. Yes, a hundred—plus some. There are some things God has been working with me on for years and now I’m finally getting around to doing them. He’s given me so many chances to get things right.

Honestly, I believe I needed all of those chances because each time I didn’t follow through with whatever I was supposed to do, I learned something new about myself. I also gained more knowledge about what was asked of me, and God gave me room (grace) to improve. I am so loving this over 50 version of Shaun/LaShaundrea.🥰

Listen, no matter how many times you have to start over, know that every restart is an expression of God’s grace allowing you the opportunity to do better and become a better version of YOU.

I pray you have a lovely day!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Not on God’s Watch!

Shaun Bradford

You Will Not Fail.

Not on God’s watch!

Originally shared on Shaun’s Daily Inspiration

Stay covered.

God’s got you.

The question is…

Do you have yourself?

Listen, trust yourself to do what God already knows you’re capable of doing. He wouldn’t have given you the desire to do the thing if He thought you’d fail.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Being Present And At Peace

Shaun Bradford

One of my themes for my fiftieth birthday year was, “Present and At Peace.” I shared the following on this day in 2023—

That was two years ago. Here’s what I’ve discovered since—

Yes, this is peace.♥️

Love you,

God’s Hugs and Kisses

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

I pray you’re doing well.🌸

I slept in this morning. Then, just as I was about to reprimand myself for slacking, God reminded me of His gift—His peace and blessings. This is the life He’s blessed me with. He’s given me this time and space to move as I please—time to shamelessly focus on me and only me.

And you are. YOU, my friend, are blessed.

As I mentioned last year, God’s blessings are like His hugs and kisses reminding us that we are His children. And I am taking it all in. I’m surrounding myself with His love, peace, and blessings.

I needed the extra sleep. I needed to wake up to the sunlight, not before it appeared. Usually, I would apologize for the late post, but not anymore. No more apologies. No more over explaining. I’m finally living in the space God’s graced me to be in, and I’m loving it.

This is Year52.🥰

I pray that you’ve allowed God’s hugs and kisses to find you. There’s nothing like being graced with His blessings.

This is all for now. Wishing you a magnificent day!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 105

Shaun Bradford

Facebook Memory: June 19, 2019

During my adulthood, I have taken quite a few leaps of faith, some small and some life-changing. With each leap came challenges; however, all were so worth taking.

Six years ago, I mentioned that I took leaps while afraid. Well, baby, on this side of 50, nothing seems to frighten me—not sure if that’s a good or bad thing😅—I’m just out here going with the flow. I’m not sure what my next leap will be, but I do know that whatever it is, I’m doing it fearlessly because I know from years of experience that God will always be with me.♥️

I’m Blessed, Yes

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

I pray you’re doing well.🌸

Blessed!🥰

I woke up this morning singing Charlie Wilson’s song, “I’m Blessed.” The song says—

“Ask me how I’m doing, I’m blessed, yes. Living every moment, no regrets. Smile upon my face, I’m like, oh yes, I’m blessed, yes. I’m blessed, yes. I’m blessed!”

Yesss… I am so very blessed. I am so grateful for God’s love, mercy, and grace. There’s nothing like it. Amen

Y’all, only FIVE days until my birthday!!🎉😄 I’m so excited! I’m even more excited because I get to see my baby girl today!!😆 Let the festivities begin! Year52 is loading!

I pray you have the greatest day yet! May it be filled with love, joy, peace, and laughter. You deserve it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun

**Fun fact: Many, many moons ago, when I was a little girl living in Kansas, we belonged to the same church as Charlie Wilson’s sister, Loretta. She had four or five boys and I had a crush on one. Those were the days. Good memories!
