My Journey With God, No. 31

“The joy of the Lord is my strength.”

That phrase seems to be on repeat in my mind at the moment.

“The joy of the Lord is my strength.”

Y’all, I am so grateful for God’s love, mercy, and grace.


“The joy of the Lord is my strength.”

God’s Plan

On this day last year, I shared the following on Facebook—

“Everything always works according to God’s plan, and it always works out better than you imagined. Trust His plan.”

Shared on December 4, 2023

If you’re like me, you have absolutely no idea of what God’s plan entails. So, all you can do is trust Him. With that being said, I do and always will believe that His plans for our lives are greater than anything we’ve ever imagined. I believe this.

Now, let go and trust Him. He’s got you!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Change

Good Morning☀️

I shared the following image as a Facebook story three years ago (December 4, 2021).

“It is in the midst of change we often discover wings we never knew we had.” –Author Unknown

I believe this to be true. We never fully know what we can do until we experience some form of change. Although many assume we discover our wings during unfavorable conditions, it’s also possible to find them when conditions are favorable. I pray that whatever state of change you are in—if you are moving, you are changing—you discover your wings and SOAR!

Wishing you a wonderful day. May God shower you with love and blessings.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Listening Ears On

Keep your listening ears on! Sometimes, God’s voice is almost faint. So faint that you must be tuned in to hear it.

Earlier, I was ready to post something different. I had created a graphic for it and everything. Then, I heard not to share it, so I didn’t. After thinking about what I was going to share, I understood why I was told not to share it. It wasn’t anything terrible. Honestly, I thought it was quite inspiring. However, some could’ve misinterpreted it. I’m so glad I listened.


Questions—

Do you have your listening ears on?

If so…

Are you prepared to be obedient?


That’s all for now. I pray you’re having a wonderful day thus far.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

My Journey With God, No. 30

Was feeling some kind of way for not feeling bad about a situation. Was beginning to think I was being heartless. Even stopped what I was doing to check myself. Decided to read a past journal entry written on this day and the message I needed was right there as plain as day!

Here’s what I wrote on December 2, 2017—

“The lesson I learned is never fight more for someone than they are willing to fight for themselves. NEVER!”

On that particular day, I was putting my career on the line for someone who didn’t even want to work with us. I assumed he was being treated unfairly. Come to find out he was doing the bare minimum and couldn’t wait to leave.

Sometimes when people aren’t fighting for themselves it’s not because they don’t know how, sometimes it’s because they don’t want to. Do what you can, then step back and let them continue on their own. If they want to succeed, believe me, they will.♥️

God’s Presence

When I tell you Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts delivered a word this morning!!! Listen, God’s presence is everything!!! I know what God has promised me, but I don’t want the promise without God’s presence. Me and God are in this together for life. For life. I can’t move without Him. I refuse to move without Him. ♥️

I refuse to move without God’s presence.

My Journey With God, No. 29

Singing, “You made a way. Don’t know how but You did it.”

God has come through for me so many times. Too many times to name. I don’t know how He does it, but He does it every time. Every single time. Y’all, I am so grateful He loves me.

I am truly blessed.♥️ ~Shaun

Hello Sunday

Good Morning & Happy December!☃️

I can’t believe the end of the year is already here! I pray this month brings us more love, peace, joy, and blessings than we have received all year. May they set the precedents for 2025 and the years ahead.♥️

Love you,

My Journey With God, No. 28

Earlier today, God had to check me on the way I showed up…or didn’t show up…for myself. He let me know that even when I don’t feel like showing up, I still have to show up. It wasn’t anything significant that happened. Actually, it was something small. So small that I didn’t feel like the way I showed up even mattered. However, it did.

From here on, I must be intentional about how I treat myself in all situations, not only the ones I believe are important.

It’s self-love Saturday, and loving myself has to always be done thoroughly.

I’m listening, God.♥️
