The Life of a little seed


I have sent seeds
To many .. of you
Who have had a Birthday..
That is because I am a sower .....
God is the ultimate grower
Happy Birthday Blessings...
Sharing my best gift .. a seed ...
Only you and God..
Knows what it will bloom....
As you water, weed and wait ..
Love LisaMe!

I would love to hear... what you grow..
It is important to ask.. and important to know..
How does your Garden Grow

Mine grows..
With words of encouragement
That the Lord .. fills in my heart
It bubbles up to my fingertips
Hits this keyboard .. and the words fly by
Then I stand In Awe when it gets to my lips ...
Sometimes I can not believe it is me speaking..
Then I remember it is not..
It is His Holy Spirit speaking through me ..

To share with you ...
I love what my Garden Grew
Because I knew it would touch you!
Love LisaMe!
I know how I want my garden to grow..
What you plant is what you will grow..
It is important to ask and important to know...
 Pulling up weeds.. is important too! ..
Even if they silently grew ..
It is time they go ..
And they already knew ..

My Hat’s Off To You!

Sending you Butterfly Kisses
And Watering cans
Angels with wings holding flowers in their hands
I saw this card and thought of you
Of all the crops you planted and grew
And of how your life is slowing down
Such a laborer no one has found

You have worked hard your whole life through
Always putting others in front of you
Never a task did you delay
Always willing to work when others would play

Now it is time
To sit back and see
The Harvest the Lord has given to thee..

The Beautiful Garden
Of Life’s Great Reward
Your Children are grown
Some of your grand children too
And God has Blessed you
With Great Grandchildren Too

Enjoy your Family
On this Mother’s Day
And know that you are loved
In a very Special Way

I Love you
Your Daughter
LisaMe!

Note: My Mother's Day poem to my Mother .. Sent with a bird house .. the poem was written on pink and white butterfly paper .. the card.. had gardening tools, a straw hat, a watering can and packages of seeds.. with flowers in bloom.. It reminded me of her..
For her birthday I had written the Love on your Tree ... 11-27-08 ..
Note to self: Just more Gardening thoughts from LisaMe! How does your Garden Grow... more and more healing dont ya know...
Thoughts from another day ... 10/21/2010 .. when I wrote "The Heart Matters"  these are are connected together .. because of how the garden grows....
How does your Garden Grow ...
It is important to ask
And Important to know..
Today..
I planted some heart felt seeds
I pray it grows hearts...
...And not any weeds ...
Love LisaMe!

What you plant is what you sow... 
It is important to ask and important to know...

Peace Be Still

"Jesus rebuked the wind and said to the sea, 'Hush, be still.' And it became perfectly calm."
(Mark 4:39)

As we wait upon the Father's will
In all we say
and all we do

I check my heart..
Right here with you
Trusting God with all I do
And all my thoughts
concerning you

Note:
(checking my own heart with the Lord while reading His word)
(Psalms 115:1 All Honor Glory and Praise belongs to the Lord.. along with all things of this world)
(my thoughts concerning.. family/friends)

Note to Self: Received this scripture.. (Mark 4:39) with the following.. comment..( How to Keep Your Faith in a World of Chaos) from Breaking News.. this is how it speaks to me..
Your sister friend... LisaMe!

Life is a Journey

God is with you 
and 
Has not strayed

I understand 
How lonely 
Life can feel
When going through 
Things that are so surreal
We do not always understand the reasons
Why

But know that God .. is not sitting idly by 
He hears each prayer
And 
Hears every cry 
He allows us weakness
To depend 
More on Him

It's ok 
To cry my friend

We never truly understand 
Until 
The battle's end 

How our weakness 
Turns into strength
Because 
We learn 
How to trust 
In Him 

I can say this 
Because 
I have been 
Where you are

Know 
That I am praying for you
Love LisaMe, 
Your sister friend

Note: 12/5/2014 .. This was written 5 yrs ago Just before our grandchildren came to live with us.. Who could have know the Journey .. this would be ..5 is the number for Grace.. Father God thank you for all of the Grace you have given unto to me .. And allowed me to give it to others .. You are my precious gift in 
This Journey of Life

Thank you, Tois Talyor.. Because  Many years ago, (1994) Because of you I learned how to clean out my spiritual closet .. And to know that it would be a huge mess.. but once reorganized .. my life would be neatly organized and prioritized and put in boxes with labels back on the shelf .. It gets easier each time going through life's little messes.. Even the Big ones .. knowing I can throw out bad decisions.. and start fresh and new .. Knowing God gives us Grace .. His free gift for all of you .. Praying is a lot of what I do .. while writing inspirations to me and to you .. Praying you have a Beautiful Blessed Day while considering what you need to throw out today .. Remember we can never out give God.. offer up a pray for others.. Give fforgiveness where it is do .. And Remember it all starts with YOU ... Love .. LisaMe!

Intertwined

Oh how this life of mine
Is so intertwined
With my word and my rhymes

I love the things I’ve said
The words so trapped within my head

That at times
I get up out of bed

The moment I write them down
I began to hear the sound

Of it forming in my mind
That’s when my world is Intertwined

With its rhythms and its rhymes
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Oh how this life of mine
Is intertwined
At times

The words get trapped within my head
As I am laying in my bed
Speaking softly in my mind
With its rhythms and its rhymes
That’s when my world is Intertwined

As It’s forming in my head
I get myself up out of bed
Speedily I write them down
Hearing how the words do sound

Oh How I love the things I’ve heard it say
I wouldn’t have it any Other way

Note: One of my favorite scriptures
.. A tree Intertwined ..
Revelations 22:2 In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yeilding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

Tomorrow

None of us are promised tomorrow
But we can face .. each day..
Without sorrow of situations
That may happen tomorrow ..
Life needs to be lived
And not kept in a box
Although some moments
We tend to relive
Are safely kept under lock
Sorrow comes to us all one day
But it comes to pass
And not to stay
All of my sorrows
Have made me stronger
for a better tomorrow
Love LisaMe!
Note: 11-15-2008 written thinking about Stacey and the gift he gave me .. I know tomorrow will come

The Love on Your Tree


I wanted to say
Happy Birthday
From Me

I wanted a gift
That would say
All the right things

I wanted it to bring
A
Smile to your face

To bring love to your Heart

To bring you Great Joy

To share with you how many years of your life others have enjoyed

I could not find all the words I wanted to say
For all the things you have done for me
On all of my yesterdays

But I found this Beautiful Tree
Filled with lots of hearts

Inside each heart Filled with all the memories
Of your life lived and shared
With the ones God has planted there

And As I looked upon this tree
I saw your love for me

My heart was so filled with Joy
I knew this was the perfect gift

Because what Mother would want more than Love

When our lives are filled with love
That is where the true blessing are

Happy Birthday Mother
I Love You
LisaMe!

I am a fruit on your Tree

Note: 11-25-2008

I wrote this today for my Mother.. for her birthday.. I wanted something special I loved the picture of this tree with the hearts.. I had my heart set on using it to write something for her .. After I wrote .. and re-read it .. I sat and cried .. realizing that my Mother.. does love me ..

And how Awesome is God .. for giving me the right inspiration .. to get to the root .. that has been burrying me .. Joy has been replaced .. by the rejection that I had been feeling for years ..

I sent it over to Target .. having it printed on a 5x7 photo .. and will put it in a frame .. I know she will Love it.. What can I say.. it was in the Tree ... lol .. Praising God.. LisaMe!

A Lump of Clay


Outside walking in the break of day
I know I am just a lump of clay
Talking to the Lord.. I had much to say
I am trusting in Him to show me the way

Open my ears so I can hear
Open my eye so I can see
Sometimes we get blinded by Humanity

Remove the junk that makes me blind
Renew my spirit and my mind

Speaking to God while I am on my way
All I want is for you to have your way
Mold me make me day by day
Lord I am Willing, show me the way
Love, LisaMe!

Leap Frog




Here’s a Frog to go in your Garden may it be a reminder to where we have been and where we are going. This leapfrog is to remind you that there are times when we are to carry. And times when we are to be carried. The idea of the leapfrog was to help advance one another to the next level; it was not intended to squash each other, or to take advantage of the other. The idea was to help one another to the next level. If we can learn a lesson from the leapfrog, we could learn a lot. Not looking back, but looking forward. In order to truly get to the next level we have to leave where we have come from behind us forgiving looking forward. God has a lot of Great plans for us. With the leapfrog plan we could go far. So how about it? Want to jump ahead to see the Plans God has for us. The only other alternative is to drown in the pond of un-forgiveness. I like God’s plan better he died for our sins and gave us a sea of forgetfulness. Where all the frogs’ both young and old jump higher and live longer. And with that thought forgive me and let me leap over to help carry you and not be a burden to you. Have a wonderful birthday! . I pray that you live longer and Jump Higher!

Happy Birthday!
With Much Love LisaMe!

Note: Written for my mother for her birthday 2003

2003 .. given with leap frog planters
2014 Brought Mother a Kissing frog ..
 

Friendship Flowers ..


Dear Friends
New friendship is like flowers growing in a garden.
They started out as little seeds,
That grew a mists the soil and weeds,
The more they are watered they more they grow.
Sometimes we plant and don't even know.
The "JOY" we bring to all who are there
In mists of God's garden with love and care
It is for His pleasure it is the reason we are there.
Each one of different each one of us rare
As the flowers grow from beneath the soil
We continue to labor and continue to toil
With labor of love to remove all the weeds
As new growth comes up from within the seeds
We tenderly nurture the tiny plants
Whose leaves sometimes look as though they dance
Maybe it’s their way of showing their Praise
To the Father of Heaven with their leaves raised
For the one who created their beauty and grace
For all who behold the love on their face
It is the purpose of the friendship to bring love.
It is just like the garden
 it needs watering, weeding and waiting,
patiently as it grows.
Just like garden it will not grow without the "Son",
or the watering of the Holy Spirit.
The Father created within us an eternal purpose.
He commanded us to Love one another.
It becomes a pure "JOY" when friends are like you.
Your courage stands out; you are a strong branch in God's Garden.
No branch becomes strong without being tested to make sure
it can hold its place in the vine.
God has a purpose and plan for us all.
The garden is His creation and He knew when He planted it
what would grow and what would be weeds.
Thank you for using your branches and reaching out to me.
As you have for so many others.
Be encouraged to remain willing and God will continue to use you.
A garden is a lot like God's creation
He created us for His enjoyment.
We are like seeds planted around, and throughout the earth.
He waters us with His Holy Spirit.
We nurture and feed off of each others love
that comes from the Father given to us by the Son.
That is God's purpose that is why it begun.
Who gets more enjoyment
the Gardner who planted the seeds,
The flowers who beautifully grow,
or the ones who look upon the garden.
With much Love, LisaMe

..
How does my Garden Grow?
With beautiful sister friends..
the Lord wants me to know
you were planted in my life ..
hand picked by Him.. Amen!
Love LisaMe!
What you plant is what you will grow..
It is important to ask and important to know...
Pulling up weeds.. is important too! ..
Even if they silently grew ..
It is time they go ..
And they already knew ..
More from the Garden of LisaMe!♥



Note: Written the morning that I was going to meet VickyD for coffee .. I did not know her very well this day.. in fact I had just recently met her ..It was April 2003 .. I had just found a pumpkin watering can at a garage sale .. we had just had cell at my home.. Ms Dottie had brought some brown mums .. I put them in that little pumpkin watering can .. that is when Friendship Flowers was birthed .. I sat and wrote it quickly on my computer ..  We have been friends since 2003.. I have been inspired to write her many things .. She was always willing to hear my writings ....I have watched her life.. be rearranged ..

All in the life of the garden ...plucked and planted .. Father knows best ... we all have to face life's test ..... big or little .. we must do what we can.. to keep the bugs out .. to cultivate our fruit .. The fruits of the Spirit  make it very clear to see ...
But the fruit of the Spirit 
is love, joy, peace, forbearance, 
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 
gentleness and self-control. 
Galatians 5:22 

Gods Blessings (In the Winter Season of our Lives)

Praise God from whom ALL Blessings flow
Even in the winter season
When the grass is covered with snow
When the things of life have no rhyme or reason
There is one thing
That I know that I know
God's Blessings will
Eventually flow
God's greatest gifts are just before us
It is not what is seen that is eternal
But those things that are unseen
We are to keep our eyes on the Father above
Who in His time brings all things to pass?
Just like when the snow melts
And beneath is the green grass
That has been protected
And nourished from the snow
God's plans may be hidden for a while
But in His time His blessings will shower down
With His unfailing love
He was never far from us
Only covering us with protection in the
Winter season of our life
Love LisaMe!

The Dandelion

Like the seeds on this Dandelion
We are to allow God to send us

Where He wants us
Allowing His word
To go forth from our mouths freely
Sharing the Word of God
And even more importantly
Sharing His love
For what is His word without love

And even already when I think I am finished
I am still receiving more about the Dandelion
Remember even as the Dandelion is blown
And its seeds are blown in all directions
It is like our love and ministry from God
Not always knowing if the seeds took root
God sends some to plant and some to water
And even when we are empty of seeds
And we feel like we have nothing else to give
God replenishes and refreshes us
With a never ending flow of His mercy and grace
To continue loving his people

The harvest is plentiful
But the workers are few
We are workers in His fields
Laboring in His love
Until His kingdom comes
May God Bless you LisaMe!
 Which direction
Will your influence flow ..
With your God
 Given seeds..
There are things
 That are important to know....
Before you plant and sow...
Especially if you want
Something good to grow
While you scatter your seed
You must know what it needs
To know..
How they will grow
Like how much sun ..
And how much water it needs
Today..
I planted some heart felt seeds
I pray it grows hearts...
...And not any weeds ...
Love LisaMe!
