Hello Sunday

Woke up with Smokie Norful’s, “I Need A Word,” playing over and over in my head. Here are the lyrics courtesy of LyricFind and Capitol Christian Music Group.

I Need A Word

The noise of my day
The depression that steals my voice
The confusion that arrests my life
So I can’t even make a choice

Life seems so loud
I’ve been too proud
So Lord, what do I do?
I just need a word from You

Oh, I need a word
Tell me which way to turn
I need a word
Tell me which way I should go
I need a word
To tell me just what to do
Please send a word
God, I need to hear from You
Drown out the noise
Let me hear Your voice
I need a word from You

Ooh, oh, I just got bad news
Life just darkened my day
My family is in need
And I just cant seem to make a way, oh

Life seems so loud
I’ve been too proud
But I’m asking you now
Lord, send a word from You

I need a word
Tell me which way to turn
I need a word
Tell me which was I should go
I need a word
Tell me what should I do, Lord
I need a word
I need a word from You
Drown out the noise
Let me hear Your voice
Oh Lord, I know need a word from You

I hear You Lord, I hear You say

Stand still and know that You are God
Stand still and believe You’ll work it out
Stand still and see my victory walk right in
‘Cause with You, I will win

I need a word
Greater is He that’s in me than He that’s in the world
I need Your word
No weapon formed against me shall be able to prosper
Drown out the noise
Let me hear Your voice
I need a word
From You

It’s growing season. You are being pruned. Lean into God.

Praying you have a wonderfully, blessed week. Love you!♥️

Be Encouraged

I can hear William Becton singing –

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

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 all right,
But you gotta stay strong.

Know your labor is not in vain.♥️
Stay in prayer while waiting and listening for your next moves.

Y’all, politics is not my thing. I have never been interested in being involved in more than encouraging people to vote and showing my support by sharing information. Now I am doing things that are stretching me far beyond my comfort levels. I’m not sure what God is doing; however, I know from experience that whatever this is it’s preparing me for future endeavors. As Bishop Jakes says, you cannot have change without disruption, and boy has disruption come.

Here is what I have learned and am still learning – my job is to lean into God, allow Him to lead, move when He says move and be still when He says be still. AND I must do ALL of this while operating from a space of peace. Talk about challenging, but if He believes I am capable of doing it, then I can do it.

Step Into Your Calling

You already know what you have been called to do. You have seen the vision and it is very plain. However, you are hesitant to move forward because it will take you completely out of your comfort zone; you feel like there are too many uncertainties to take the risk. Believe me, I understand. I am right there with you. But now is the time for us to step into our callings. No more excuses. No more delays. Those who need what we have to offer need it now… TODAY. Let’s do this!♥️ ~Shaun

It’s time!

Side Note: This consecration time with God that Bishop Jakes suggested Sunday is THE TRUTH! Listen, I thought I was already spending time with God and following His guidance, but clearly I wasn’t. Over these past few days, things that I thought I had handled resurfaced and I had a choice to either bury them again or face them head on. Well, I decided to face them. Listen, if you want to KNOW about yourself, spend a little time with God, real time with God and I guarantee He will show you who you really are. Y’all, it was not easy, but it was so necessary.
