I’ve pulled a muscle in my upper left arm. The simplest movement sends a shooting pain through my entire arm, and my whole body winces. The movement of my fingers when typing sends a vibration up to my shoulder that somehow causes the pain to stir, and even as I...
Tim and I will be traveling to Huntington tomorrow evening for the visitation of one of his students who was in class one day last week and then found dead that same evening. He was an only child and my heart breaks as I think of the agony his family is going through...
Lord, I want to walk closer to you today than I did yesterday but not as close as I will tomorrow. Please hold my hand and keep me near you. In Your Son’s Precious Name, Amen ...
We’ve all seen the poster showing the cat hanging on for dear life with the caption, “Hang in there. Friday’s coming.” If Monday could talk, I have a feeling it would have a lot to say about this poster and this mentality of life. After all,...
If I could write the perfect story, it would involve happy people doing happy things and experiencing happy endings. But when I read a powerful story, I realize that it includes people who are struggling, people who deal with conflict, and people who face all sorts of...
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!
