Chapter 11 ~ A Candy For All Seasons

To Blessed to be stressed

God's ways not our ways, God's will not our wants.

When we lay aside the things we want and seek God’s will; God honors our hearts and sends us more blessings than we can contain. That is why we sing the song "So blessing I can't contain it." God's promises are yes and Amen.

Worrying, Wandering, or Waiting
A lot has happened since last November 2010 .. 
We willing accepted the challenge .. as we pressed into God ..
Concerning our Bridge Mix Ministries .. Which is a vision in my heart to build an orphanage for children who need to be rescued from abuse in their own homes .. 
Every child deserves to be loved, clothed, fed and disciplined correctly .. and raised up with the teaching of the Lord.. through His word.. found in the Holy Bible .. 
We just did not know at the time.. What the Lord was going to do .....
Jan 2011 we rescued 2 of our grandchildren (6 & 8yrs old) from a bad environment .. Their parents  lifestyles out of control .. We can report today.. their lives are stable.. We have full custody ... after going through all the legal proceedings ... What a lesson .. Truly the Lord was with us through all of this .. We are thankful for our Attorney for helping us to understand.. the process and was there to step up .. to help us make the needed changes.. And ..  the Judge with eyes wide open ..  seeing the situation for what it was..  We are still learning .. And walking it out ... In our home .. Today I can say We have peace.. the g-children are doing well .. both on A Honor Roll .. both loving and serving God .. both praying daily and studying God's word.. and applying it to their young lives.. understanding their environment changed.. and they have changed too... We pray for their parents daily .. 
We are not worrying or wandering.. just waiting on God to continue to show us the way .. as we wait upon Him.. Amen

One Day .. One Season at a time ... God's ways not ours .. His timing .. we will keep walking out our lives and see where it leads us ... 
In His Love

Chapter 10 In Disguise

Dem Bones
Ezekiel 37: 1-14

Speak life into your situations
No matter how dead it may seem
Look at Ezekiel
God raised a whole army for him
Out of dry bones
Ask, Seek, And Believe
Then Receive
God is the Only one who can do it

The Lord has given us the authority to speak to our situations, divorce, broken marriages, smoking, drinking, drug abuse, jobs, rebellious children, anything you can think of that needs healing and restoring. We can speak life or death to them. Today why don't you choose Life? Allow Jesus Christ to wash away your sins, and to make you whole.


Father God, teach us to speak with boldness over our situations like you did for Ezekiel. Thank you Lord that you have placed your Spirit within those who seek you. We praise you for life and that because of Jesus we are able to have it more abundantly. In Jesus Name, Amen!

Map Quest ~ Chapter 9

Who are you following .... 

Which way are you going? 
Do you need to turn your life around?
Need Directions?
Does your life need a few corrections?


The Bible is the best Map Quest ...

It not only leads... but also corrects .. 
If you are going in the wrong direction ..
We all have work
Ahead of us

 Read it for yourself
See that it is True
It can bring 
Eternal Life to You

Jesus is the way the Truth and the Life

Matthew 23:10 And don't let people maneuver you into taking charge of them. There is only one Life-Leader for you and them - Christ.
(Quoted from the Message bible)

Matthew 23:10 And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.
(Quoted from the NIV)

Matthew 23:10 And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.
(Quoted from the NKJV)

 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you. ~Psalm 12:8

Jesus is more than my best friend

God is my Everything ..
His son is my Savior ..
His spirit leads and guides me .. 

Through Faith I receive him ..
Through Grace I live and breath ..

His gospel carries me ..
His Joy surrounds me
Nothing can take
All this away from LisaMe!
Jesus is
More
Than
My Best Friend
He is My
Life 

Amen .. 
John 3:16-17  For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
 We need to Overcome Obstacles
Tough Family Situations
Spiritual Battles 
 The Bridge Mix Ministry is important to me .. 
Children need to be rescued from their own families
The insanity of child abuse needs to STOP
We need help here in America
Land of the Free
Needs to Free
Children from Child Abuse
Talk about Rough Roads ..

My thoughts are as deep as the ocean .. I am seeing all things in the waters .. 
Colorful fish swimming together ..

What path do you need to take... to get you to the pearly gate...


 MY heart still burns
With Passions fire
Wanting Only
 To follow
God's True Desire
All of my days
All of His ways
Each day
He brings my
Heart
Closer and Closer
To
His Purpose
Will you take
The Steps
And Follow
LisaMe!

 To bridge a gap
Left open wide
Where sin can
No longer hide
Children
Reaching
For our help
Little hearts that
Will truly melt
When 
They Feel Your Love
And 
Appreciate 
Your help
They have not had it anywhere
They have been
Abandoned
Abused
Confused
And
Forgotten
We must Remember them in Prayer
We Must Rescue them from unstable homes
We must Love them anyway
We must Teach them God's Love
We need Bible Study and Teaching on our grounds
We need more than  4=four walls
We must Give them 
Godly Homes to Live in
And
Safe playgrounds to play on
With House Parents
Who will guard their home
Throughout the day
And
Throughout the night
To make sure
They are safe and sound
Hearts touched by God
Learning How to Live Again
Brothers. Sisters
We must be their friends
Love LisaMe!
Doing what I see
The Heart of God
Going Before Me

Who is Your "Lifesaver"

July Chapter 7

Go Forth
A Real Life Saver

We are getting storms.. today .. This was yesterday's lesson for the children .. Sometimes we get .. little sprinkles of life's problems.. sometimes we get the rain showers the medium problems in life.. and sometimes we get Thunder, lighten and heavy rains the BIG problems in Life .. God is with us through them ALL when we put our Trust in Him .. July Chapter 7

Luke 8:22-25

22 Now it happened, on a certain day, that He got into a boat with His disciples. And He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side of the lake.” And they launched out. 23 But as they sailed He fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy. 24 And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!”
Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm. 25 But He said to them, “Where is your faith?”
And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, “Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!”

Jesus was with the disciples and He will be with you too! As you put your trust and faith in Him.. As you go through life's storms .. and life's problems ...

As I continue to walk out my life .. 
It is so Amazing 
To me .. that My book 
Continues to Speak so Loudly to me
As The Seasons
Continue 
To line up
As
I continue
To 
Surrender
My Life
To God's Ways
Not
My Ways
To 
God's Call
God's Will
For My Life

He has been 
My True
"Life Saver"
Going back as far as I can Remember 
I am not quite 3 years old in this picture
Jesus has ALWAYS
Been there for LisaMe!
Showing me His Love
Protecting me through the Seasons of Life
Teaching me Life Lessons
I would love to Share Jesus with You
He is the 
Only one
Who can Save 
Your Life
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
