As the night ends, I want to leave you with this…
When God says, “Be still.” Be still.
When God says, “Move.” Move.
Don’t hesitate to do either.
Obedience matters.♥️
Love you,

Hello Sunday
Good Morning! Here’s what I shared on September 22, 2019, five years ago.
When I tell you this one post has had me crying for a few minutes now. So many emotions about this memory, about this particular “purse note.” It was the very first of my notes. When I wrote it ten years ago, I was told to keep it near and to reference it often. That I would need it. I had no idea what that meant, but I was obedient.
Over the years, I began to read it less and less often. At one point I was reading it almost daily. At times, I questioned some of the things I had written inside (nothing juicy, just things only I would eventually understand). This year, I’ve only read it twice. The crazy part is, it has actually taken ten years for me to fully grasp what I wrote. Hence, the reason I’m crying.
As I wrote a few blogs ago (had no idea it would tie into this one), be obedient. God really does know the outcome. He sees and knows all. Yes, I’m pretty emotional behind this one. Y’all, I just can’t believe I have kept this note in my purse for 10 years!! I am blown away by my compliance, my belief, my obedience (over the years), my willingness to follow God’s word and allow Him to lead (took a minute…well, almost 10 years to get here). Talk about mind blowing!
Whew! I’m going to end here and leave you with this. You never know what you can do until you do it. Allow God to lead. You may not understand the assignment, and half of the time you may even think you’re crazy. Just do what He asks. As I wrote on the back of the note, “God blessings are better than life.” I used to cringe every time I read it without the apostrophe (God’s). However, today, I see it differently. God blessings—meaning the size of the blessings—are better than life.
That’s all I have for you now. I pray you have a wonderfully, blessed Sunday.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Indescribable
I just love the gems I find in past journal entries. Here’s a snippet of what I wrote on September 21, 2017.
I’m listening to “Indescribable.” God’s so AMAZING. This is how I’m feeling. He loves me despite my mess or how many times I mess up.
On this particular day, after trying to do things on my own, and basically making matters worse, I had finally stopped and asked God for help. And, according to my entry, He worked everything out instantly, and it was better than what I was attempting to do myself. I had written that I didn’t know why I continued to do things on my own, and I heard God say it was because I didn’t believe He could or would do it. I had made mess after mess and then was too ashamed to ask Him for help. But despite how many times I made a mess of things, He so graciously and lovingly cleaned them up.
I am forever grateful God allowed me multiple opportunities to get things right. Because, y’all, in some areas I kept failing the test. However, He didn’t give up on me. Sitting here in tears because the following year, after passing multiple tests, I began to see the fruits of my obedience and willingness to allow Him to lead. Whew!
Listen, Indescribable, that’s Who He is!
As Kierra Sheard sings (Indescribable)—
Indescribable, uncontainable You place the stars in the sky and You know them by name, You are amazing God. All powerful, untamable, awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim, You are amazing God.
Y’all, He’s so amazing!
Be Blessed♥️

Just Be Obedient
When I tell you God just checked me! Laughing. I heard to do something, something that made me somewhat uncomfortable. Basically, it was out of the norm. Well, as I often do when God asks me to do something that shakes my comfort level, I started second guessing if I heard correctly. Then, I wanted to know the outcome. “What would happen if I did it?” “What would happen if I didn’t?” Also, “Why?” Why did I need to do it? That’s when I was hit with the, “Because I said so.” HA!!
Me: “Okay, I hear You, God.” DONE!
Listen, if you consider yourself a vessel of God and claim He can use you as He pleases, get ready to have uncomfortable moments. From my experience, the moments are never detrimental, they’re just uncomfortable. You can do it. My advice, release control—yes, it’s a control thing—and be obedient. God knows the outcome, and He’s the only one who needs to know.♥️
Love you,

In Sync With God
Good Morning! God is working. He’s moving. Make sure you’re working and moving with Him. Keep going until you see what He said. Then, await further instructions.
That’s the message!♥️
Love you,
