When Mercy meets Grace

When thinking of You

All I see

Is God’s Grace

Abounding over thee

I feel your Grace Abound

It is in the echo of the sound

It is His love that will set you free

To be the woman of God

You were made to be

Reach past the hurt

That has had you bound

As you lay all your burdens down

It is His love in me

That I give this word to thee

I am his child – LisaMe!

I feel your Grace abound

When in my life I have found

When Mercy meets Grace

Note: 2008...Today while at our ladies cell meeting.. during Praise and Worship .. I got this word for my sister and friend Ashley .. God loves you so much.. it is our healing that He desires .. Receive His Mercy and His Grace..

Be Blessed ..

Your sister friend .. LisaMe!

Psalm 68:1-3 

"Let God arise. Let His enemies be scattered. 

Let those also who hate Him flee before Him; 

as smoke is driven away, so drive them away. 

As wax melts before the fire, so let the wicked perish 

at the presence of God. But let the righteous be glad." 

Note:
Written to one of my Cafemom friends.. in response to a poem written ..
encouraging women to Arise Prayer is a powerful thing ..

The Rarest of All Gifts

Majestic is the word

The Lord has given me

You came
To my remembrance

From a distant memory

He showed me of your beauty

Yes so delicate and rare

Hidden
Deeply
Down
Within

Beneath
Your skin and hair

He showed me of His favor

That He has
Concerning you

In things that
He has planned

That only you can do

So do not be afraid

For what He plans
Will come

These are things
That have been promised

Just like the returning of His Son

You have been
So very faithful

He is absolutely pleased

And
When the time does come

It will happen
With such ease

Royal is your color; Purple is the hue

One thing God can count on,
Is you always will be true

And
For you my dear, dear sister

Perfect are the facets
That have been chosen for your crown

For when God desired a willing heart

It was you that He has found

Continuing
Walking as
A Woman of God

God sees your heart

You are so very
Special to Him

May all His blessings
Rest upon you

Because one day soon ALL of your dreams will come true

Note:10/18/2014 Even today .. I find myself wanting to bless others .. I have been blessing friends.. on Facebook.. with the gift of flowers.. because Sherry Smith a girl from High School that I did not know well .. put flowers on my wall .. one of the pay it forward .. kind of post .. so for each person that likes your post.. you pick a flower and post it on their wall .. I love these type of challenges.. because it allows me to write an encouraging word .. to go along with the flowers .. I have saved the words.. in word document .. for future reference .. because it blesses me to be a blessing .. We can Never out Give God .. True encouragement never dies.. but continues to live and breathe .. Amen I strive to be an encouragement and inspiration to and from the Lord ..

 Note: 12/11/2010 Day 31 in my heart devotion God's Heart Your Destiny .. this reminded me.. not only of my gift of encouragement .. but the gift that I see in others.. as we look at our own hearts.. we need to see them through the eyes of Jesus... This way we see.. what He sees.. the gift perfected ...  rare and beautiful .. maybe not always ready enough to share .. but just like the diamond in the rough .. that is how I see myself .. I know I have gifts.. many that God has given me.. and through the years .. looking back I can see how He is perfecting them :) Oh How I love Jesus.. and what He is doing in and through me ..LisaMe!

Note: This is where this began .. Written summer of 2007 while staying at Tiffin's... for her friend Anita .. whom I had only met in passing years before.. I gave her a gift of purple earring's..learning from Tiffin that purple was her favorite color ...
to go with the poem..

His Gift ~ The Best Gift of All

The best gift of all

you can't find it in a Mall

or under any tree

And most importantly of all

it is absolutely free

It was rare and yet so perfect

Well thought out and planned

In the form of a small baby

who grew to be a man

Fore told of by the prophets

His day was sure to come

to cleanse the world and

set us free from all that we had done

His life was sent to save us and in the end it did

you ask me how could this be so

He died so we could live

He gave us life eternally upon a cruel cross
And even when all hope was gone
we were not left for loss

The message was so very clear

right from the very start

this child who grew to be a Man

He had the purest heart

People came from everywhere just to hear Him talk

His stories were so wonderful

for miles and miles they'd walk

Crowds had gathered all through towns

on hillsides and on shores

with every message that he gave

they always wanted more

Along with His fine speaking

something else had happened too

The lame could walk, the blind could see,

the sick became well too

Even some who though were dead

were raised for us to see

that nothing is impossible for those who just believe

Believe in what you just might ask

as this story continues on

Who is this Son this special child

And where was he born

The angels told the night he came
He is the Son of God

He came to free the world from sin

And peace on earth to bring

Angels sang and shouted
"Glory to Our King"

shepherds came, wise men too

Bearing special gifts to see

The Son the angels said was laying in a manager

This tiny little baby

was not in a pretty bed

Nor did he have lace blankets

wrapped about his head

He was lying in a manager

just as the angels said

His crib was just a trough with hay

that lay beneath his head

Now this is how the story goes

there is so much more that's true

this is just a little of the gift

as told from me to you

You to can have this special gift

Just close your eyes in prayer

Ask the Lord into your heart
to wash away your cares

This special little baby that grew to be a man ..

You see his name is Jesus Christ

He died so that all may understand

Eternal life was his perfect plan
Love LisaMe!
My Prayer
Would
Be
That You would
Bow your head
With me
And
Accept
Jesus As you Personal Savior

This Year Accept Jesus As Your Lord and Savior

Don't

Wait

Another

Year

You

May

Not

Live Another Year

Note: This poem was written by LisaMe in 1999
The Lord gave it to me while preparing for a Children Church Message
As Everything that comes to me .. it was written and shared ..
I share it with whom ever will listen

Psalms 115 .. All Honor and Glory to Him alone ..
 John 3:16 For God so loved the World
that he gave his only begotten Son,  that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.

John 3:17 For God did not send His Son
to condemn the world, but that the world  through Him might be saved.

Reading the bible helps teach us Bible Truths
Matthew 1:18-25
Luke 2:1-20

 We have all done, thought or said bad things, which the Bible calls "sin." The Bible says, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" in Romans 3:23 You can't earn salvation;

The result of sin is death, spiritual separation from God Romans 6:23
The good news?

Jesus died in our place so we could have a relationship with God and be with Him forever. "God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8 But it didn't end with His death on the cross. He rose again and still lives! "Christ died for our sins. ... He was buried. ... He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures" 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 Jesus is the only way to God. Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me" John 14:6

You are saved by God's grace when we have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ.
All you have to do is believe you are a sinner, that Jesus Christ died for your sins, and ask His forgiveness. Then turn from your sins-that's called repentance. Jesus Christ knows you and loves you. What matters to Him is the attitude of your heart, your honesty.
My Prayer
Would be that
You
Would bow
Your heart
In prayer with
LisaMe!

Will you pray the following Prayer to accept Christ as your Savior:

Dear Lord Jesus,
I know I am a sinner,
and I ask for your forgiveness.
 I believe you died for my sins and rose from the dead.
I trust and follow you as my Lord and Savior. 

Guide my life and help me to do your will.
In your Jesus name, Amen.

Note:2021 .. "
Life is a Journey Not a Race We must all Travel at our own Pace." 

 I am so excited for you ..

Psalm 119:105

Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

Matthew 22:37

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.

Am I a Word Weaver



Stitching and sewing
Would be just fine
If I knew how and had the time

Funny how it is said…
That I use words instead of thread ..

I love the thoughts that come to me
It frees my soul and sets me free

Yes.. this is just LisaMe!

Note to self:
Am I a Word Weaver
.. I love the sound..
I love what I think it represents..
Some have said I am a psalmists ..
I did not feel worthy of the name..
 I have called it poetry because I did not know what else to call it
 .. but Word Weaver ..
I think
.. represents me ..
 and the words that I share
.. piercing though the air
with encouragement, thoughts and prayers ...

Thank You Mary Diane
 .. you are a Blessing
 .. You ..
have encouraged me ...
My sister friend Mary Diane .. went on to be with the Lord .. Oh how I miss her

2019 Reference link update ... Walking in a New Season .. God has reasons for every season .. Trust That

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!

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!

Just Believe

Daddy dodo
I believe in you

God is your God
And I know this is true
He is doing a deep-rooted work in you

Give in to His love
It is His gift from above
He will not let you down or fall beneath the ground

The devil, he cannot win
He only wishes that God were his twin
He is deceived, he lives a lie and in the end he knows he will die.

But not you my dear husband my Mr. Man
God is doing all that He can
To open your eyes and show you His love

While you live in this land

There are too many friends who care about you
They are praying to God, to help guide you through
Warring in the Spiritual Realm standing in battle for you

So Believe in yourself
You are not alone
There are multitudes of Angeles surrounding God’s throne

Rejoicing with God Singing in Heaven
Because they already know
You will make it home

I Love You

Your LisaMe!

Note: One of the many poems of encouragement written to my husband.. Stacey ..

Lady Diana

You are truly a Creation
That brings forth a sensation

To all who know you

May your always grow close to the vine
Releasing your pollen to those in need
As you allow Jesus to be your wings

You are a beautiful flower
That brings beauty and light

To all who are touched by your lightness of ways
Encouragement comes in so many ways
It strengthens our hearts and lengthens our days

I am encouraged
By the things that I can see God do
Because of the Beauty
That He has placed in you

And here Today

We come to Celebrate

The journey of your Life

Beautiful Pages of your life
As a sister, a friend
A mother and a wife

Happy Birthday
Love LisaMe!

Note: Recently one of the Ladies in our Womens prayer group had her 60th Birthday .. I was not able to go to the celebration.. A friend bought a card for me.. a brought it over to my house.. while I was signing.. her card.. which happen to have lots of butterflies, flowers, feathers, and leaves this is what came about.. on the card.. I wrote in circles and .... dots ..lol

Whispering prayers

In the Father’s ears
We know He is listening
Even through all of our fears

These little earrings
With glistening drops
Is our way of saying
Please do not stop

May they be a reminder to you
Of all of the special things
That you say and do

Of the prayers you have whispered
And the tears you have shed
The witness you have been
And the life you have led

Prayers you have lifted up on our behalf
Especially for your brother to pick up his staff

You are a blessing this much is true
And it is our pleasure to
Bestow gifts onto you

Love, Lisa & Stacey

Note: Written to my sister in law.. with a bag of gifts I picked up for her .. that included a beautiful pair of dangling earrings.. I am so appreciative for the prayers I know she offers up for her brother..

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!

Intercession

Thank you for your intercession

Your compassion and your prayers

I Thank God that He will meet them

With His love and with His care
Your friendship has already

Become Special to me

You are a gift unto the Lord

Yes, this is what I see
In Love and friendship

Your sister in the Lord, LisaMe!

Note: written to a friend.. after hearing that she was in prayer for our family.. over the loss of Dusty ..

Gawking and Talking

Thoughts that are rolling around in my head..
As I wander off headed for bed
Is not any animal at all
But Women who are Spiritually Tall
Not wandering around or shopping at the Mall

But talking and praying over spiritual things
That would make most peoples ears tingle and ring
Deep is a word that comes to my mind
I have found most people are just spiritually blind

But you have been very refreshing
Listening to your words
Is like having salad with a wonderful dressing

And yes my dear friend I do love to rhyme
Gawking and Talking most of the time ..
When listening to God in a spiritual rhyme
He tickles my soul most of the time

Joy is the word that I leave you with
As you open your heart
Instead of your head

This little rhyme
Is simply to pass the time
of a Gawking and Talking
In a Spiritual Rhyme
Love, LisaMe!

Note:
Written to a new friend.. silly chatter .. lol
I do not always write just for fun ..
but this one.. was a MOST enjoyable one.. lol ..
It shows how my heart is being freed and healed ...Amen!

One day.. this will go on the road .. sharing it for all to see ..
Just How much Fun Gawking and Talking can be ...
Look for ..... LisaMe!

LisaMe!

Smile!

Life is full of all kinds of trials

But when faced with a friend

It is easier to smile!

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 ..

 

Amazing thoughts from.. LisaMe!

A Miracle in His hand

Jesus did it with dirt in his hand..
What did he do with the old blind man..
Jesus put spit into his hand
mixing it with sand..
Then touching his eyes, what a surprise..
He opened his eyes! ..
If he did it for him he can do it for me ...
What does Jesus have to do in order for us to see ...

Amazing thoughts from.. LisaMe!

Distance Between Friends

You are a friend who is always there
sight unseen I know you care,
When there is a need I know you'll pray
and I pray for you it just works that way.

There is not a friend more true than you
who picks me up when I am blue.
No matter the distance between us two
I know with God I can count on you.

Love LisaMe!

Note: To my prayer partners and special sister friends .. who are always willing to pray for me when I call .. I Love you ..

For All God's People

Life is precious
Life is sweet

We must take time

to stop and speak

To share our heart

to say a prayer

to just let people

know we care

It pleases God

to see us Love

He's watching

Us from up above

So be that friend

take time to pray

For all God's people

Everyday!

Lisa Me!

Note: This was one of my first poems written..
Before blogger; Before 2003

I wrote while thinking of Daniel Dardar
Who had invited me to write for him at Louisiana Good News
A non profit ~ Christian Newspaper ..Thank you for your encouragement
I had not really written before .. because of you; Because of Peggy P
I have continued to write .. expressing my deep inspirations

(My blogger was started in 2008 needing what I felt at the time was a safe place to share
My writings (it was not safe) Ending in 2019 because of their constraints not allowing me to share the link freely through facebook. twitter and goolgle ..
Learning where All the lies and spies really are Dec 2018
It is still very much still unraveling)

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
