Through torrential rain and increasingly foggy roads, my friend Carla and I inched our way back across America from a 900-mile journey this weekend that took us first to Norwin Christian Church in Pennsylvania where we were blessed to spend the day with an unbelievable group of women (I loved meeting all of you!) and then on to Washington, D.C., where we participated in a 5K to help raise funds for brain tumor research.
I have sooooooooo many pictures and soooooooooo many stories to share.
But before I can sit and download pictures and put together all of my thoughts in words, I have mounds of laundry, bathrooms to clean, and floors to vacuum before diving back into a week of teaching. This is my only day to get ready for a house full of company this weekend………
Erich graduates from nursing school Friday night!!!!!
I just wanted to share one thought for today.
God is with you. Even when you don’t feel like He is there……………………I promise that He is trying His hardest to get your attention somehow either through creation, a person, an object…………..something. He longs to be Your everything.
So, for today, I will look for Him in the things around me which include laundry baskets, piles of clothes, dirty dishes, unmade beds, and all the other things a house can hold on Monday. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! I’m all ears and eyes, God!!!
I love you all so much.
Until tonight,



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!

“God is with you…even when you don’t feel like He’s there”
