I have a lot of friends who are struggling this morning.
Friends who are facing loss, disappointment, regret, fear, and loneliness.
As I watched the sun come up over the clouds just beyond our house, I couldn’t help but think of each of them and how difficult it is in life to face a new day when so many things seem so unbearable.
It occurred to me that if I could not see the sun rising, it would be nearly impossible to experience the wonder and beauty of the sunrise.
In our spiritual lives, the same principle applies.
Facing dawn and seeing the beauty in it becomes easier when we have a good view of the Son.
If you’re struggling to find the beauty in today, turn to Him for help and hope.
His mercy and love are new every morning. He is faithful.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
Lam. 3:22-23
Praying for so many this morning who are hurting and wondering what is next in life.
Comforted with the knowledge of God’s love and faithfulness and His desire to work good in all things


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!
