The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never
come to an end; they are new every morning. . .

“Fully present” is a phrase my husband has used to explain how we should live every day………….
Not regretting yesterday or worrying about tomorrow,
But being “fully present” today.
That means that we are not side-tracked by the things we “need to do” when we are in the middle of what we are actually doing.
So, today, as my mind is spinning with things to pack, things to organize around the house, things to make sure to leave available for mom and the kids while we are gone, I don’t want to lose today.
I want to make sno-cones with Olivia and her friend.
I want to help Todd find sunglasses in a way that doesn’t make him feel like he is interrupting my tomorrow.
I want to laugh.
I want to smile.
I want to enjoy today, because today is a gift……………………..and I’ve heard several times in my life that that may be the very reason today is called “the present.”
I hope today you will find yourself FULLY PRESENT in the moments God gives you.
Today is a gift, a present, from Him to you.
Thankful for His gift of today,
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!
