Candy Heart Hugs

Sending Candy Messages from LisaMe! ...
It is what is inside..
That I want you to see ..
The Heart of the Matter...
The Jesus in Me
Hugs & Candy Kisses
Your sister friend LisaMe!

Note to self: Time to stop playing around and get back to work.. proof reading the book so it can be approved today ... Oh how I would rather.. write and play ... This picture was taken yesterday! 9-21-09

I made the deadline ..all material is submitted

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, in how to share Him with others, so they could truly know Him and experience Him, without pretence. I invite you into the world of A Candy Ministry where candy becomes the focal point. (Candy is a non-threatening (focal point/subject) to begin sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with others). Where candy is coded not coated so it melts in your heart not your hands. You will experience messages that will speak to the nature of the heart of the child inside of you, no matter your age. This touch, taste, and feel ministry is brought to you with the hope that you will have a better understanding of God and His love for you. I pray as you read this book that you will experience “life changes”. We experience trials of many kinds and need support and encouragement as we go through them. Candy messages offer a new way to look at things based on God’s word.

Note.. they did not used the picture on the back cover... But it still looks great ....

There is no price we can pay for Wisdom

The wise men .. traveled so far .. seeking the Messiah .. 

They searched until they found Him .. 

using the stars in the sky to help them find their way

They brought gifts from all over and throughout the earth .. 

Minerals .. that we can not even imagine.. 

Than in that day and time.. were priceless.. 

To bring healing and protection to the Christ Child .. 

Today I am using many 

Minerals and Supplements

Shungite stones to purify water and bring healing

Ormus .. from Hawaii

BIM A and BIM E yes both have brought healing to me

Garcinia .. is Amazing .. pain cream.. and Gold shape Lotion

Update:
August 19th 2010...
It has been a year already.. so many things I wanted to do..
still not done..
All I can say is I am trusting the son ...
I am in God's hands..
Nothing is delayed.. this is His plan ..

The book.. was released Sept 2009.. so far as I know 99 books have been purchased ..
Seeds are out there ..
I have heard back from a handful of great folks.. who love the book
To date I have not received anything negative concerning the book ...
I had hoped to have my 501c paperwork completed ..
(waiting on funds to pay for this)
I had hoped to do some book signings

(I did sign lots of books but not at a bookstore/or Church)
I had hoped to do some traveling
(I traveled to my daughters a lot this summer :) enjoying the grands
I have to Trust it ALL to God knowing His timing is Best ..
and so I rest and just keep doing what I do best .. writing..
preparing and being prepared
For the time when .. :)

August 17th 2009
I finally did it .. I made the commitment to publish .. I paid.. the price.. for self-publishing .. from Xulon Press .. my book "A Candy For All Seasons" will be out .. for Christmas purchases .. Last year .. I made Henry a Christmas book ... This year.. God is gifting me.. my book.. I am so excited .. and yet scared.. at the same time .. What a thrill.. to know.. I am in the Center of God's will .. making that commitment.. came from the prompting of the Lord.. I am not sure I could have done it otherwise.. I am not sharing.. with everyone.. because not everyone.. can understand .. the Awesome responsibility that has been placed in my hands .. I need no distractions .. I need to stay focused.. on the work that is at hand... I will be meeting with a local artist.. on Thursday.. which is in just a few days.. to discuss.. her illustrating.. my book for me.. And several other projects.. that have just been waiting.. an artist touch...

Lord.. I am stepping in the river... I know it will part .. and I will walk into the deep.. that you are calling me into .. I trust you to "Show Me.. the way .. For I know in you O'Lord.. there is No other way ..

If you happen upon this.. please do pray ... that LisaMe.. will accomplish "All" that the Lord has for her .. the publishers.. did not question.. my use of the name LisaMe... I know I am in my right place.. at my right time .. I am not here to answer questions.. about the why's or how-comes .. I am simply here.. to share what the Lord.. has given to Me.. LisaMe.. in this last 10 yrs of my life ..

Note to self: written as the thoughts of the last few days..pressed upon me.. looking and feeling a mess on the outside.. but on the inside.. I know who I am in Christ.. Nothing else matters ..Amen!

I am not dressed
And
My hair is a mess

But that is when
My writing is best
Who can say
I am not blessed ... lol

My spirit is open
To
Receive from the Lord
He comforts my soul ..
He is my Reward

So
What can I say
To those
Who would think
Me not-blessed

While they
Wander around ..
With their lives
In a mess
And
So totally stressed

Maybe
They need
To mess up their hair..
Life is not perfect
No
Not anywhere ..

This earth will pass away
With all of it's
Imperfections ..
Why add
To the mess ... of the day
Look to the Lord..
And
Let Him
Have
His way ..

I Love You

In

Christ

Anyway

LisaMe!

Sowing Seeds of Love

Up Up and away
I am going to see my friends today!
Thank you Lord for making a way
For me to have time
For fellowship and play
And most of All
To Minister today
{{Hugs}} to LisaMe
From the Father today

Friends are friends forever
When the Lord is the Lord of them
Committing my time to the Lord
And He has made room for them
I Love you My friends

The words keep coming

The Lord is doing a new work in me

And it is so wonderful to see

The resurrection of Life

it is producing in me

All things come to death

We must be willing to die

To suffer the Loss

Sometimes not knowing why

We must understand

The Father has already consider the cost

Because it was He ..

Who first sent His precious gift as death on the cross

He was not mean to stay in His suffering and death

But through His suffering and death

He was perfecting 

 Life 

For us

So as it is in our own mortal lives

We must be willing to let that death of our flesh

Work itself out

So that the true abundance of life

Can Spring Forth

And

Live within us

Which is God's will 

For our lives

With Much Love ... LisaMe!

Heart Attack

My mother had a heart attack..
it sure does set you back..
It makes you think
growing old stinks ..

When facing illness that comes suddenly it makes you think a little more clearly about your life... and how you are living it. I received a phone call from my sister .. My mother was in the hospital .. later that day it was confirmed she .. had a Heart Attack .. along with several blockages.. the Dr.'s went in and did what is now days pretty routine repair ..

How is your Heart ... Any hard places? Let Jesus come in .. and do the needed repairs..

Scripture References:
Ezekiel 36:26-27 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

Ezekiel 11:19 Then I will give them one heart and I will put a new spirit within them and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh.

Joel 2:12 “Even now,” declares the Lord, “ return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.”

In December I wrote about the healing of me.. I visited with my mother.. God did a work in me.. in my heart.. I will continue to push through and not abort ... I believe God gives us stints.. to help us get through some of the hardness of our hearts.. He is in the repair/restoration business... He said He would take a heart of stone and turn it into a heart of flesh then fill it with his Holy Spirit ..

Chapter 2 – February

A Season of Love

February is known as the month of Love. As we enter into the season of February many of us are thinking about “Love” as tradition has it. So let’s go with tradition and see just what Love is, and how Love can change our lives. Go ahead get your candy ready and let’s see “what’s love” got to do with it!

And then moving on in Chapter 3 .... The Battle is the Lord's .. it is not you and me ..

Chapter 3 – March

The Battle is on!

It’s not by might

Not by power

But by my Spirit says the Lord!

So whose team are you on? Ever feel like you are on the wrong side. In this season we will take a closer look, you just may find you have been in the wrong battle, on the wrong side, or just being worn out by your own sin.

Note: It continues to amaze me how my book "A Candy For All Seasons" continues to speak to me.. Life is a Journey .. and along the Journey of life.. many seasons.. that come around.. each year.. when you begin to see it.. it becomes quite clear ... When the season will change and which one is near .. Walking in Him.. LisaMe!

Break-downs that cause Break-through's

Everything that we go through.. brings us to the place .. Where God wants us.. our break-downs bring us to our break-through's .. We do not always see it for what it is .. when it is happening ..

This morning .. while reflecting back.. After recently being under attack.. I can see.. God's hand a little more clearly.. As I continue to crusify my own flesh.. my own wants and needs.. and allow the power of the cross.. to take control for me .. others are rendered powerless.. when we give all power to the one who died on the cross.. He is the one and only Lord .. No one else can lord over us.. when we are under the power of the cross.. remembering He is the only Boss...

Faith remains to be faith.. the subatance of things hoped for .. these are things.. we wait upon the Lord for.. If we rush out ahead of God.. then we received it out of false power/control and not faith ..

So for today.. I feel Blessed to be where I am.. waiting on the Lord.. leaving Him in Control of my day .. This is the place.. I hope to stay .. To be happy in Jesus.. we need to Trust and Obey!

I am preparing to publish my book after years of writing and waiting .. like bread that is set to rise.. it still needs.. to be kneaded .. and allowed to rise again.. and again.. until finally it is ready to bake to perfection .. I am waiting on God's perfect time .. it is very near ...

We are also preparing to purchase a house.. a home not only for my husband and me .. but also a home for his mother.. our mother in love... A home where she can find the love, peace and joy she needs .. She is 84 soon to be 85.. We share the same birthday... I am planning to have a party for her.. Because I think she deserves it.. To celebrate 85 years of life... This will not be a shared party but one to Honor her alone.. I will celebrate next year.. lol when I each 50 .. yes.. I am almost a half a century old.. lol

So as I take one day at a time..
Trusting in the Lord to show me the Way..
I have peace for this day..
Knowing my blessings are on the way..
The trials for the day.. have come to pass not to stay..
I am growing from the knowing.. that comes.. with each one..
Because I know it is no secret from the Father or Son ...

I pray that you will learn your lessons too... Because God has something Special for you!

I write in love.. and in release.. it is what brings my heart to peace.. LisaMe

Note to self: Today is 03-03-09 tomorrow is 03-04 .. Liza's Birthday
She would be 29 it is ok.. I am not sad .. I just look to God each day Praising Him.. because He has made a way.. for me to always trust in Him.. Because of her.. my relationship with Him.. became solid .. What will it take.. for you to learn to totally Trust in Him.. If you need my help.. just ask me friend.. Love your LisaMe sister friend!

Up-date .. My book was published.. 9/2009 ... Today is 9/21/2010 .. over 100 books have sold ... I wish more could have gotten out there.. but self-publishing is different than having an agent.. and someone to market for you .. Self publishing books.. do not always make it to the bookstores.. unless you order them .. But my book can be ordered.. in the local book store.. and online .. God is placing the book in the hand of those.. He has hand picked ... I am pleased with what He is doing ... with it .. I was obiedent to write it .. God is in control .. He is moving in my life.. so many changes.. still ahead... I love you Lord..

A Candy For All Seasons : By LisaMe!

http://www.xulonpress.com/bookstore/bookdetail.php?PB_ISBN=9781615792733

In the stillness

There are times
in the stillness
of silence
the most is spoken...

Remember
God knows our hearts
and hears our prayers
before they are whispered ..
He is Already there...

Love your sister friend...
LisaMe!

Note:2-21-09 Written after reading a friends journal about the stillness of the early morning in her house.. when everyone else is asleep.. of her secret cries out to God.. for His understanding and help ..

Note to self: 2-21-09 .. God always comes to the rescue.. He is the Victory .. It is not in our time.. or in our way.. but He always shows up.. either way.. He is there in the midst of your storm .. in the midst of your pain.. He could be sunshine or He could be rain.. either way.. Continue to sing His Praise.. He is your Victory .. I share this with you... As I continue to remind myself.. His will is on the way .. These things have come to pass not to stay .. LisaMe!

Note 12-13-2012 Day 33~ Praying Heart~Prayer changes things.. Talking to God about what is going on in our lives .. Listening to His answers is important too.. Bringing petitions to the Lord .. and knowing He is listening with answers for your soul .. LisaMe!

Note: 12/13/2016
Oh How I feel this more and more ..
No One can understand .. those still times
Unless they experience it ..
Father God .. Thank you for not leaving me
I Love you.. LisaMe!

Hugs from LisaMe!

In my Weakness.. He is strong

"Healing comes in so many ways; it strengthens our hearts and lengthens our days" LisaMe!


I have been a little tired.. of late..
I suffer with chronic fatigue.. (2015 they diagnosed Lupus)

It has been around me all of my life.. first as a daughter ..and then a mother and a wife..
I have been diagnosed with many things.. none of which I hold myself too ..
(only meaning I do not claim.. them) I have learned when I am tired.. I rest ..
If only I could learn to pace myself a little better.. not to get tired in the first place.. lol ..
Not so easy a task.. when getting up out of bed.. can tire me at times.. lol .. Yes, I laugh ..
because it amuses me to see How the Lord works in me.. I am truly not like others ..

I have known this since I was a child.. although I do not always understand .. at least I know..
How my weakness.. brings me to strength .. so do not morn for me.. when I am gone..
just rejoice the day I was born ..
Born to share my weakness with you..

The sun has come out today..
my fingers hit the keyboard..
and I began to play.. lol
I thank God..
He rested with me yesterday ..
and restored my soul for another day ..
I will rejoice in the Lord Always!

Philippians 4: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

2 Corinthians 4:18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Note: This is not my first winter that has come to pass .. lol .. The seasons of our lives do not necessarily run the same course as the 4 seasons .. I thought you would enjoy reading.. my words.. on the winter seasons of my life .. found in the Poetry blog site (Gods Blessings (In the Winter Season of our life)

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!
