If your mind is like mine, it often gets “filled up” with things to do, places to go, and people to call. I met a lady at a conference several years ago who told me that when her mind begins to be overloaded with thoughts, she takes a notebook and writes...
Pushing the snooze button is part of my normal morning routine. I set my alarm thirty minutes early just so I can push this button three times before getting out of bed. I love knowing I can lay my head back down for ten minutes…… three times. But the...
It’s just another Tuesday in August. The last Tuesday in August of 2013. We’ll soon be clicking away at September, then October, and on and on. If we’re not careful, we can slip into a routine that has us so forward-thinking that we miss the...
There’s something about knowing today isn’t in my own hands. My hands are often weak, unqualified, unequipped, and unsteady. My hands often try to hold too many things at once, causing the most cherished things to slip through my fingers. I could become...
It’s never pretty when we lose our grip. People or things we hold dear often end up hurt or broken as we do or say things that just aren’t normal. Normally, I don’t move my sugar jar. I take my spoon to it. But, in the early hours of this morning, I...
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven!
