I spent $1 about 4 years ago and bought a little notebook to carry in my purse. I thought that writing a verse in it every once in a while would help me as we were sitting in so many different doctor’s offices, waiting rooms, and hospitals with Nick.![]()
Through the years, I’ve added verse after verse after verse until the notebook became completely full. The cover has been torn off somewhere along the way………![]()
And the pages are beginning to fall out.
But this little notebook has carried God’s Word with me in a very personal way for so long that tonight when I couldn’t find it, I thought that I would cry.
I wish I could somehow share the joy that overcame me when I felt the pocket of the bag I carried this past weekend and realized that I had never unzipped it to take this little notebook out!!!! Oh, how I cling to these passages!
I have special plans for this notebook!
Plans that I hope will bless all of you one day.
Each verse in this book has given me strength not only as our family faced cancer with Nick but also now that we walk the road of grief. I am working on a book that takes each of these verses and shows how it can help you too. Please pray for me as I try desperately to find time to pour out how God has used His Word to strengthen me and give me Hope.
I want you to have that same strength and Hope.
Forever Thankful for His Word,


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 

What an absolutely wonderful idea. I know that the Lord will make a way for you. Just lean into the Holy Spirit, he will equip you and give you power to follow His leading.
