Numbers 6:24-26 (NIV) “The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.”
I miss my blogging friends! I'd like to say, what a week but the truth is I must say, what a year. Time has flown by. I wish you lived close enough that we could visit in person. I can see us all smiling, laughing, praying, talking, studying the Word together and sharing parts of our lives with each other that can't be shared on a Blog.
I returned to Facebook the end of August to communicate with my College daughter. Facebook also allows me the opportunity to share Christ and quick encouraging messages via my cell phone as does my Twitter. However I can't type a blog message via my telephone so my blog doesn't receive as much of my attention as I'm on the run and not as stationary (seated at the computer) as I used to be.
GOD has been up to some amazing things in my off-line life as I'm sure He has in yours. He has placed His favor on my Book: You Are Beautiful In God's Eyes in ways that continues to keep my jaw dropped open in shock and awe. He is also opening doors that only He could open and I'm thankful. I'll be sharing more on that in a different post. Oh and FYI: my blog name is changing and my design is being worked on even as you read this message. I'm so excited with what God has laid on my heart to share for 2012. Stay tuned. There is so much more I want to share but this message is becoming longer than many of you may want to read :) I'd love to hear what's going on in your life.
I enjoy Dr. John Maxwell. He is one of the leaders I have gleaned from since 1999. Below is a great one minute message on manners. It made me think of each one of my blog friends. Don't get upset it's not what you think. I'm not suggesting you don't have manners :) I'm suggesting that I need to mind my manners by connecting more with those of you precious souls that are NOT on my Facebook or Twitter but mean just as much to me. That is the purpose of this message today to say I miss you. I love you and I'm praying for you. That never changes even in my absence. All of our lives are full and I'm sure I'm not the only one MIA in blogging as of late.
Please take a moment and listen.
What did you think about his message?
I look forward to sharing Christ with each of you on my blog and yours as we are in this beautiful special season of Christmas! My favorite time of the year!!! He's an awesome, amazing King isn't He?! Yes He is! I love JESUS!! So thankful for His love! I love and appreciate all of you.
Let me know how I may pray for you.

It's a great message! It's so hard to stay connected. I wish I could leave a comment on every blog post I read, but there is that problem of not having enough time.
I appreciate you and your loving, thought provoking posts, and wish all the best for the new year!
Lisa,
I'm having a hard time too, staying connected with my blogging friends. But you are "always on my mind" and I want to wish you a very blessed CHRISTmas...my friend!
Love~Tammy
Isn't it wonderful that the God who begins a work in us does not abandon us, but continues to perfect us until our completion! Praying God does amazing things in your life in the coming year and blessings you beyond understanding!
MERRY CHRISTMAS dear sister!
Cherie
I do love him and his message. I too have found myself using facebook to connect with those that aren't in blogland and it has been a way to direct some to my blog to read what God has put on my heart. Great outreach!
Hi Lisa, miss you too. This is a busy time of year indeed. I look forward to seeing what unfolds in your life during the upcoming year. I purchased the kindle edition of your book this weekend. Looking forward to diving into it. Blessings to you my friend.
Oh, Lisa. How I would love to hug your neck today and pray with you in person!
I do miss you, too.
Please pray for my heart. Feeling down. I know God is good and He will carry me. Just thinking it would be nice if He would inhabit somebody's arms today, so He could give me a hug I can FEEL. *wink*
Merry Christmas Sis. Lisa, I'm super excited for you that doors are opening because of your book. I love visiting your blog and benefiting from your wisdom.
Mari,

I pray a beautiful, blessed Christmas and New Year for you and your family!
Much love!

Oh Karen,
I'm HUGGING you right now in prayer as I pray for your heart. I don't know what it is but our Abba Father knows and He loves you so very much. I know you know that. I pray you feel HIS warm, loving, strong, caring, restoring arms around you right now in only the way that He can hold us.
I love you! Buzz me if you need me ok?!
