Stand Strong

Shaun Bradford

Unfortunately, life does not come with a blue print. If it did, most of us would modify areas to fit our desires. But no, life is one of those things that is constructed as we move through it. Sometimes we reach staircases that climb and some that descend. Sometimes we reach the end of hallways and have to turn around and take a different path. Some doors are opened, while others are locked. Some locked doors come with keys that we have to find before we can unlock them. Yes, it’s stressful and often frustrating. But it’s life. As so many wise ones have said, God will never put more on us than we can bear.

Stand strong. Stand in faith. Trust God. He’s making a way. Don’t worry about what will come next. Let God handle that. Remember, our steps are already ordered and things can change with each new step.♥️ ~Shaun

Be Encouraged: God is Working

Shaun Bradford

William Becton’s song, “Be Encouraged,” says:

I know right now it's impossible to see,
But God is gonna work it out if you just believe.
Remember this one thing while you're going through,
If God delivered Daniel, He'll do the same for you.

Be encouraged no matter what's going on,
He'll make it alright,
But you gotta stay strong.

God’s got you.♥️

Your Tears Will Not Be Wasted

Shaun Bradford
Hang in there! You are not the sacrifice.

You must believe that every setback you have had, every tear you have shed, and all of the pain you have endured has not been for nothing. God will not allow any of these things to break you or take you out. Instead, He will use all of it for your good. Just hang in there. I am praying for you!♥️

Don’t Limit God

Shaun Bradford

I have had this as my cover/header on several of my social media platforms for three years now. Three years! Three years and I still find myself placing limits on God. Shaking my head.

Don’t limit God

Do Not Limit God!

A couple of days ago, I went on a 24 hour adventure with a feisty, fearless 82 year old. When I tell you she’s not afraid to live! She kept saying, “Aww LaShaundra (not LaShaundrea), you’re a scaredy cat.” When I tell you she’s so spontaneous. Everything I once was. Probably everything I could still be if I would have stayed out of my head.

Now I am sitting here asking myself what would happen if I completely let go… like completely. What limits am I blocking? Hmmm…

In the words of one of my all time favorite people in the world, “Higher is waiting.” Y’all, I believe that’s my answer. That’s what I am blocking. I’m blocking something higher. Guess it’s time to take those limits off and soar! I can do this!!!

Wishing you a wonderful Thursday. Love you!♥️

Gotta love Year50. When I tell you I was not expecting my year to be anything like this. When I say God is pruning me for real. Y’all, it’s scary, uncomfortable, and somewhat painful; however, I am trusting God to take me somewhere wonderfully, unimaginable. Somewhere where my heart will sing again, the butterflies will flutter, and I will experience an overflow of joy, blessings and unconditional love, forever…
