This sign in Washington, DC, reminded me of the pace this world seems to be in most of the time.
I think that’s one of the reasons waiting is so difficult.
It’s almost as if the “idling” stage is illegal.
On the escalators we road to and from the metro train, people who were in a hurry would literally run past us on the left as we rode the stairs up or down.
I guess they viewed the ride as a time of pointless idling when they had places to go, people to see, work to be done.
We even found ourselves walking on the escalator as the trip progressed instead of simply staying put and enjoying the few minutes of peace.
Today, if you have a chance to either move on or stay put,
I hope you’ll choose to “stay put” and simply soak up the moment around you.
Life goes by so quickly.
Idle for more than three minutes every chance you can!
Psalm 46:10
“He says, “Be still, and know that I
am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”



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! Email me anytime at 

AMEN to that. Oh you were so close while in DC. I live about 1 1/2 hours out depending on traffic. Maybe another time. Sandy
