Contentment……
Sometimes I feel a lot like this cantaloupe that is growing in my garden…. somewhere between being a seed and being everything God plans for me to be……….. Do you ever feel like that? I think the secret to being content comes from embracing...Season of Change……..
I come to you this morning as a mom and wife who is taking back on the role of teacher for a season. After much prayer this summer, Tim and I felt that if God opened a door for me to teach then it would be a good season for me to be in the classroom. I was offered a...Urgent Prayer Request
Last night as I was unpacking, Tim walked in and was on the phone with Mike Furrey. Remember, Mike? He is our dear friend who embraced Nick so beautifully as he fought cancer.

When I read the title of the next chapter in Battlefield of the MInd, I definitely wondered the same thing as Christine in her post from Friday, “Who gets to define a normal mind?” Joyce uses God’s Word to explain that God designed for our minds to...A Very Brief but Special Moment..

Psalm 38:9 All my longings lie open before you, O Lord; and my sighing is not hidden from you. I just love that God chose to let us know that not even our sighing is hidden from Him. Have you ever been in a season of life where deep sighs seem to carry you from...Battlefield of the Mind: Week Seven
With Erich here this past weekend, Friday came and went without me sharing week seven in our study of Joyce Meyer’s book Battlefield of the Mind. This is such a great chapter, too!! The chapter title is, “Think About What You Are Thinking About.” At...Hugo’s Big Day……..

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!
