I have been computer-less this past week, so I have missed being able to share life with all of you.
I wanted to post a very quick note to let you know that Nick had a great time with his brother Todd and friend Caleb while we were at Myrtle Beach. I am so thankful that we had this opportunity to once again take Nick away from “his problems” and have some fun!
Last night, after we had unpacked from a week-long trip and 10-hour day of driving, I made coffee and ended up on our front porch watching our neighbor’s fireworks display. In the distance, I could see other fireworks going off in all directions. It was beautiful!
It felt good to be back home. There is no place like home, is there?
I am thankful for so much in spite of the uncertainty each day holds……when I find myself becoming overcome with fear, I whisper the verse, “When I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God whose Word I praise. In God I will trust. I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?” Oh, I love this verse so much!
I have a huge writing assignment to do for our county schools, so I will be consumed for the next week or so. I will try to post small comments when I can. Once I get this finished, I am anxious to reconnect in a much more personal way! I love you all so much! For now, I will be thinking of you all……from my front porch!

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!
