My Journey With God, No. 99

Shaun Bradford

I didn’t know it at the time, but the Pause I took not too long ago, was necessary. I needed to be still and calm (that’s where the breathing helped—see my last post “Pause and Breathe) so I could hear God’s voice.

Several days ago, God gave me a message. I wrote it down because it was pretty good. However, I never considered He was giving me instructions to follow. Today, He sent the same message but in a different way. This time, I received it, but it was only after I was still enough to understand that His words were instructional.

Sometimes, God gives us instructions that seem so minute that we barely recognize their significance. I am so grateful that He loves us enough to send the message(s) multiple times and in multiple ways.

I’m listening God. I am forever grateful for you patience, love, and grace. I am truly blessed.♥️

The Time Is Now

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

How are you?

I pray all is well.🌸

Here’s a Facebook memory from June 4, 2022. The message is still the same but a little more pronounced nowadays. It seems like every week, someone I know or someone close to them has died. No lie, almost every week. I haven’t become numb to it, but it has made me live life a bit differently. Everything I thought was so urgent or concerning isn’t so anymore.

This memory is a message indeed. And before I continue, I must add that I’m not sad or depressed. I’m just beginning to view life differently and move in a manner that brings me the most fulfillment. Tomorrow isn’t promised, so the time is now!

I pray you have the most amazing day! May it be filled with lots of love, laughter, and joy.♥️

I love you much,

Shaun

**P.S. My posting schedule hasn’t changed. I was up late working on something and fell asleep, so I missed writing earlier. I guess my body needed the rest. It is my Wellness Wednesday.☺️ Maybe I’ll start scheduling all my posts to keep the time consistent. We shall see.😊

An Oddly Good Day

Shaun Bradford

Today has been a rather oddly good day. That’s about the only way I can explain it. So odd, yet good. I could see God’s hand in everything, even things I found strange, uncomfortable, and somewhat challenging. I could see God.

Feeling blessed. Yes, God’s hand is in everything, and everything is in God’s hands.

I’ve been singing “Worthy” by Elevation Worship all day. The song says, “Worthy is Your name, Jesus. You deserve all praise. Worthy is Your name.” Amen

I pray you had a wonderful day. You deserved it!♥️

Love you much,

Shaun

God’s Whispers

Shaun Bradford

God’s whispers have the power to quiet doubts and calm fears.

I don’t know about you, but just hearing this makes me breathe a little easier.

He’s so amazing!♥️

Love you,

The Encourager

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

How are you?

I pray you’re doing well.🌸

“The Encourager”

That was the name of my mom’s monthly newsletter. She used to send them to friends and family in the early 2000s. After she died, that was one of the things her friends remembered about her. Here’s a copy. She would’ve been a great blogger.💗

The Encourager (April 2003) written by Dorothy Bradford

“No matter what we suffer or have lack of, when we learn to put God first, to love Him, and to recognize His voice and obey, we have assurance that all things are working to our good.”

What a word! A word that she lived by.

This is a short week! I pray you have a beautiful day. May God make you feel extra special today. You deserve it!♥️

I love you,

Shaun
