I wonder if God realized something as He watched the Israelites journey through the wilderness. Did He sense fatigue in their eyes? Notice irritability in their conversations? Remember His own need for a break after creating the world? I’m not sure what happens...
I’m not a fan of fancy places. I’ve often said that when I am required to dress up, attempting to wear a heel that exceeds an inch, I look and walk like Mrs. Doubtfire. If you don’t know who that is, please feel free to Google her name. The reality...
We’ve all seen signs that list “Our House Rules.” Things are included like, “If you open it, close it. and If you turn it on, turn it off.” Or “In this house, we forgive often, like to have fun, say we’re sorry, love each...

Phil LeMaster was my minister for years. He walked many wonderful and many painful roads with our family. Preached funerals for us no preacher ever wants to preach. Welcomed each new son we brought into the world after we moved to Kentucky. And introduced our...
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!
