Side Note: The song “Running Back to You” by Commissioned is playing over and over in my head, so you know I must share it. The message is—It’s time to stop running and find rest in God.♥️
Good Morning☀️

This morning, I asked God how I would know what His BEST was for me, and He assured me that I would know. He gave me an example of how I asked for something very specific—not asked in a prayer, just a random ask (nothing intentional)—and it happened. He said that’s how I will recognize the BEST. It’s not something I will have to seek, second guess, or question if it’s the BEST, I will just know.
I will know.
Deep, huh? Smile
That’s all for now. Praying you a wonderful day and blessed week!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Singing—
“I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Amen

Never forget the goodness of God. Always keep it close and dear to your heart, and allow it to surround and comfort you. ♥️

“Chess Not Checkers” —Pastor Touré Roberts’ Sunday message.
Filling FULL right now!!
One word— CONFIRMATION!
Chess not checkers. Strategy is everything!
When I tell you there is absolutely none like my God! Y’all, He’s sooooo amazing. So amazing. I am so blessed and honored to be His child.
Gotta stay focused!♥️

Good Morning☀️

Since Facebook grouped these two stories together, I decided to share the Facebook memories from each one.

Simple message, yet it is often difficult to do until all noise is blocked—both externally and internally.

All it takes is ONE decision for our entire life to change. What may seem like a small decision today could actually be one of the greatest decisions of our lifetime.
Message—
We must stay focused so when it’s time to make those life-changing decisions, we won’t hesitate to make them.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Re-reading Christy Nockels’ “The Life I Long For: Learning to Live from a Heart of Rest” has been more about revisiting my reflection notes at the end of each chapter than actually reading the book. Here’s one about me trying to maintain a balance between pursuing my dreams and staying present (February 2022)—
Balance. Is there such a thing as balance? Either you’re working towards something or you’re enjoying the moment. Seems as if doing both is impossible.
That was written three years ago, written before I finished the book. By the time I finished it, I had found that balance. I discovered I could do both—actively pursue my dreams and stay present. The catch was, and still is, God has to be the center of it all. I cannot live the life I desire without Him being so. When I place myself in the center and try to do things from my own efforts, that’s when I feel off balance. And that’s also when God gently reminds me that He’s in control. Yes, HE is in control. Smiling
Y’all, God is so good. I just can’t express it enough how grateful I am that He loves me. I am so blessed.
Anyhoo… Let me go to sleep.♥️ ~Shaun
I hate to admit this, but one of the first things I do when I wake up (after spending time with God) is look at X to see what national events happened while I was asleep. You know, if the country is still standing. Well, like clockwork, I did it this morning.
Y’all, sometimes I feel like I am the only one in my circle (besides my daughter) who’s paying attention to what’s happening in our country. For some reason, I feel the need to stay abreast of things so I can warn others if something’s about to kick off. Like I’m some kind of guardian or something. Most of my friends are in this state of, “We’re living in the last days, I’m preparing for heaven.” Um… I’m preparing for heaven too, but I’m also preparing to live. What if this isn’t it? I’m pretty sure people who survived wars believed the world was ending then, but guess what, it didn’t!
Well, after I closed X, I finally decided to check YouTube for some inspiration, and of course Pastor Joel Osteen had the message I needed, “Living At Rest.” I couldn’t help but smile when I read the title because God had been nudging me to re-read Christy Nockels’ book, “The Life You Long For: Learning to Live from a Heart of Rest.” I was reading her book during this same time three years ago (February 13, 2022). Here’s what I wrote in my notes:

I can’t say it enough, I love the way God loves me. Y’all, He’s just so good to me. In Joel’s message, he said to put a “Do Not Disturb” sign on things that disturb your peace. He said it’s not for others but a reminder for us to stay in peace.
Again, God is good, and I’m listening to Him. Going to be obedient and re-read Christy’s book—TODAY!
Here’s the link to Pastor Joel Osteen’s message:
I pray you have a wonderful day and a blessed weekend. I’m going to post today’s message on my social media platforms, then hang up my “Do Not Disturb” sign. There is absolutely nothing I can do at this moment besides pray, and I’ve done that and God’s heard me. Now it’s time for me to rest.♥️
Love you,

On this date ten years ago, I shared the following image about the meaning of fear—to forget everything and run or face everything and rise. So timely, right?!

I agree with the author. The meaning we associate with fear is our choice.
Will we Forget Everything And Run?
Or…
Will we Face Everything And Rise?
Again, the choice is ours.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Psalm 121:1–3
1. I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from?
2. My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
3. He will not let your foot slip— He who watches over you will not slumber.
Remain hopeful.
Stay focused on God.
He’s got us!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
