Happy Thanksgiving

Special Delivery


I wanted to find a way
To Say Happy Thanksgiving Day

And not miss reaching out to one
Of my family members or special friends

Although I could sit here and write all day
I still would not be able
To say
All that I .. would want to say
To each and everyone of you

Individually

How you have touched my life in some way

Because of you
I am who I am

Your life has touched my life

Good or bad
Happy or sad

We have shared memories
Some Old ~ Some New
I have shared my life with you

I am thankful to have this life
That I am in
To have you as my family
And to have you as my special friends

I would not want to change a single thing
Because of this life
I am who I am

Trusting God
With each moment of each day

I am blessed to be-able
To be on my computer
To write, to pray and yes to even play

Sharing God's word on my way

Life is what we make of it
Even when it is not what we want
Or how we had planned

When we walk with God
It is easier
Because He knows us from beginning to end
He excepts our failures
And flaws
He truly understands

All the good times
And sad times

That we will cross...through our journey

Like a dessert with it's ingredients
Once put all together
We all have our good pieces we share

No one wants the burnt spots
Or the ones that end up not
Turning out just right

But today we can be Thankful

That Jesus ~ Loves us
With all of our imperfections
We do not need to deal with human rejection

Because He died for our sin
Which is every thought of ugly that we have

Even if we look perfect on the outside
Like that well baked and decorated cake
If it taste bad no one wants it
What is on the inside
Is what really counts

So when you are enjoying your
Thanksgiving Feast
I pray that you will
 Remember

To surrender that little piece
Of rottenness
We all have on the inside
To God
And allow Him to take it
And make you what ... He has created you to be

Wonderfully and fearfully made

We are whole because of Him
Healed because of Him
And can enjoy
Blessings
Because of Him

So Today
Take just a moment
And Be Thankful
Because of Him
Amen
I Love you .. your sister friend.. LisaMe!

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.
