I slowly reached for her arm. Scars ran from the inside of her wrist all the way to the bend in her elbow…………….. permanent reminders of a painful past. Addiction has a way of hanging around long after a person tells it goodbye. “I...
Leaving people you love at an airport is never easy. Navigating your way out of a tightly-constructed parking garage isn’t easy either. And when you’re doing this for the very first time all by yourself, you find yourself incredibly thankful for every new...
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. Psalm 16:6 I’ve thought a lot about this verse lately. The professor in my counseling skills class gave us an assignment several weeks ago. Counsel yourself for...

Friday morning I’ll kiss this beautiful redheaded baby girl goodbye and fly nearly a thousand miles away. I’ve gotten so used to the touch and smell of her sweet little skin that it’s hard to imagine how I’ll ever leave. I know I have to go...
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!
