I Thess. 5:18
“Give thanks in all circumstances;
for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
Monday means stepping back out…………………….
Out of my comfort zone back into the world.
Monday means a busier schedule…………………..
A continual decision to “be still” in order to survive.
Monday means a new chance to live a week right……………………
I get it wrong so many times.
Monday means a chance to share His love………………….
By being His love.
Monday means I’ve shared in His suffering again on Sunday………………..
And the least I can do is live for Him now.
Even though Mondays are often difficult for me, help me, Lord, to be thankful.
Your promises are just as true today as they are any other day!
Because of that, I say “thank you” for –
wind blowing softly outside, coffee brewing in the kitchen, Raisin Bran in my bowl, Peppy (one of our dogs) doing better…….he’s been so sick this weekend, Olivia’s soft voice as I wake her up………….
Praying for you this Monday morning,


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! Email me anytime at 

beautiful…..saying thank you…..fills up all the empty spaces.
Praying that this Monday was a blessing-filled one for you – sounds like it was off to a good start! Sending you a hug today…
Beautiful post Tammy. I love your look on Monday’s! So happy to hear your puppy is feeling better. 🙂
Loved your post today, especially in light of how hard Mondays seem to be for you. A thankful heart always help — add to it a little coffee, some raisin bran, and you got a good thing going there. It was great to be here! Thank you!
