On July 9, 2022, I shared the following reel in my Facebook stories with the sticker “Good things take time.” This memory is a much needed reminder that good things do take time.

Nutrition with LaShaundreaB (NwLB) is still here! It’s gone through many phases of development over the past four years. I thought I would launch it and it would be an instant success. Laughing because my plans and timing were not aligned with God’s. I’m glad it didn’t take off then, because many things happened afterward that needed my focus. However, I now realize I had to start it, even if things didn’t go as planned. It was the seed being planted.
Over the years, I have continued to nurture NwLB—making changes here and there. It’s not where I want it to be, but it’s growing and one day it will be a display of God’s glory.😊
This is all for now. I pray you have a wonderful day today! You deserve it.♥️
I have been singing “Trust in God” by Elevation Worship since I woke up this morning. The song says—
I trust in God, my Savior The one who will never fail He will never fail I trust in God, my Savior The one who will never fail He will never fail
As long as you’re alive, never ever give up on your dreams. Keep pursuing them because so many never got the chance to do so before they died.
But YOU—you’re still here!
You’ve been blessed with another opportunity to see your dreams come true. Keep going as if you will see them happen tomorrow. If you can’t quite figure out where to begin, ask God for guidance and trust Him to lead the way.
Woke up feeling grateful and blessed. So many didn’t wake up this morning, but I did, and I don’t take this lightly. I’m so grateful for another opportunity to be a display of God’s glory. Y’all, I’m truly blessed.🌺
Stopped to take a quick birthday selfie before I headed home. I had a great weekend with my baby girl! I got to love on her, and she loved on me. Again, I’m so blessed.🥰
Today, if you find yourself wondering about what the future holds for you, I encourage you to trust God’s Guidance, Timing, and Process. He knows what your future holds because He already has it planned.
Now, breathe…
Wishing you a wonderful day and beautiful week. You deserve both!♥️
Why does God put so many desires and dreams in our hearts only for us to have to choose which ones to fulfill in our lifetime?
Long, long, long sigh…
If you’ve been following me for at least three years or more, you may have noticed that I don’t mind pivoting to follow wherever my passions take me. I truly don’t.
As I look back over my life, I have always followed some passion of mine. From the military to culinary to dietetics to research to advocacy—haven’t even mentioned my creative side—I’m forever following a passion. It’s like I can’t stop. Ugh…
This morning, I’m sitting here trying to figure out how to connect all of my passions. And y’all, I have MANY! Every single passion I’ve ever had still lies within me. I mean everysingle one.
I must find a way to connect them all.
Yesterday, my daughter’s fiancé took me to tour his new workplace. The last company he worked for had a phenomenal space—it was so nice. I loved the warm and inviting atmosphere. However, this new company has the kind of environment I always longed to work in. From the outdoor spaces to the break areas to the artwork and creative spaces, I was on cloud nine. It wasn’t just the space, but the technology aspects of it all. Y’all, I’m a low-key techie and their setup made my day.
Side note: Since eighth grade, I’ve been in love with coding and technology. Even before then, I was designing flying cars and preparing to live in outer space. I was so ready for this era. At least I thought I was.😅
During the tour, I took a moment to sit in that space, to be in that atmosphere, to take it all in.
There has to be a way for me to do everything I desire to do. I just know there is! God wouldn’t have put all of this in me just for it to remain inside of me. Laughing because He knows I love a challenge, and I believe this one is going to be my biggest yet. I have to create something that will incorporate all of my passions, desires, and dreams.
Here are a few pictures from my tour. I just loved the art. And they had Scrabble games, books, puzzles, and creative spaces everywhere. Y’all, I was on cloud nine, for real.
My kind of world…
Anyhoo… here’s today’s inspiration— In God’s Strength— “God’s strength will take you much further than your own.”
Today, I’m tapping into God’s strength for real because ain’t no way I’m leaving this world without doing every single thing I desire to do!!
This journey of mine is an adventure indeed, and I’m loving every moment of it.
Above is the post I made not to long ago. It’s my answer to one of the Daily Prompts. I’ve been awake for a couple of hours. Nothing’s wrong, just preparing for the day/week. I’ve finally learned to work with my internal clock not against it. I’m my most productive during the wee hours of the morning, so why keep fighting it? Smile
I’ve been thinking a lot about a theme for my 53rd birthday year (Year53). I always set one right before or on my birthday. However, I believe I’m not going to set one this year. I’m just going to let Year53 be what it will be.
Anyhoo…
I’m about to rollover and go back to sleep before my real day gets started. But before I do, I just want to thank God for life—for my life. I am truly blessed. Amen
Although life is like a roller coaster and has its ups and downs, always remain optimistic. As long as we live, there will be brighter days ahead—more brighter ones than not.♥️
No matter what comes or goes, stay with God. He will never give up on you, so don’t give up on Him.
Deuteronomy 31:8 “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
