Birds of a Feather “Flock” Together
The first time I made it through the entire Bible was 2009, the year after Nick passed away. I remember reaching these particular chapters in Numbers and finding myself upset. I didn’t know what to do with God’s command to annihilate the Midianites. I...
When The Old Testament Doesn’t Spark Joy
If you’re wanting a “feel good” start to your day, reading through the pages of the Old Testament each morning may not be the answer. Stories like the execution of the Israelite leaders who had aligned themselves with Baal won’t send you...
I Don’t Want To Miss What Talking Donkeys See
The story of Balaam is deeper than my mind can go this morning. Or my clock will allow. I’ve reread so many verses and looked at several commentaries and still……….. I have questions. Lots of them. Did God ultimately want Balaam to go with...
Because God is the Director

Meet Tammy
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!
