Happy Birthday

Another year has passed
 Remembering my Dad on his birthday .. 
Living in heaven with my sweet little Liza Nicole ♥ ... 
I will be with you both one day .. 
I Love you .. Lisa Kay.



Today I am remembering my Dad.. today is his birthday .. I Praise God.. He found God in his life.. before he passed .. So I have that assurance he is in Heaven today .. Celebrating Eternal life ... I Love you Daddy ..

I did not like my dad growing up and was afraid of him most of the time .. My dad.. had a tender heart .. but a very hard life .. he did not have lots of encouragement ..and did not know how to express himself .. he drank to cover up his pains.. I did not understand as a child.. but at 26 made a trip to forgive him .. and to hear his side of the story .. Our relationship changed after that .. I was able to see him in a different light ... and not judge.. but love.. My dad never forgot my birthday .. He had love for his children .. that we just did not understand... until we were adults.. My dad loved his family ..

Amen .. there was a time.. in his life..when he did not know God (as a personal savior).. He visited me in Tusc.. and actually cursed.. at the churches we passed .. Sharing my faith and trust in God.. I believe.. helped him.. find his own way .. His life began to change .. I know he went to church.. and had conversations.. with his priest and the Bapt preacher.. He wanted that assurance.. that comes.. from knowing God and that you are His child..

My Dad Found an Angel on Earth
 Lois Loved him .. just how he was
I never heard her Ever say anything 
Negative about my dad

what a good looking man. i have never seen a picture of him.

we all go through things in our lives. it makes us who we are.

i think it's amazing that you were able to love him unconditionally, the way our Heavenly Father loves each one of us.

as i grow older and have become a parent myself, i more fully understand my own parents more and more, the love they had for me and why they did the things they did.

we are all doing the best we can. and praying in the process that He will make up the difference where we fall short.

Amen Brianna... It took me years to get to that place.. I was 26 when it started and 46 when he died ... the picture was taken when they first got married.. He looked like Elvis back then.. easy to see why my mother fell in love.. they were not equally yoked in Christ.. made a big difference in their lives.. and the lives of us as children ..

About Me

My photo
LisaMe! is an inspirational writer; Sharing the Word; as God gives it to me. I am willing to go where He leads me; When I was just a little girl; I began to hear about Jesus. I learned wonderful songs of how; He walks with me and talks with me along life's narrow way. And how to Trust and Obey for there is no other way. And a little light that was "mine"; I was supposed to let it shine. As I began to grow up I had many questions in my heart. I loved Jesus there was no question of that. But I never really understood how; He could walk with me and talk with me; or what it meant to truly trust and obey. And I was not sure at all about having a light that would shine. God used candy to help teach me the answers to many of these questions. He became real to me; through the years of seeking Him; Learning how to share Him with others; so they could truly know Him and experience His Love; without pretense. I pray as you read these inspirations you will be blessed.
