Meet Tammy
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 tammynischan@yahoo.com and I will reply as soon as I can!

Feeling Convicted and Inspired….

A Sweet Childhood Memory….
I was subbing one day when a student in class had THIS book with them! It was their dad's! I couldn't believe it, because this was one of my favorite books as a little girl! I think I even colored on my book cover just like this dad had done! As I read the story out...
Only One Road Will Matter in the End….
I thought it was either ironic or Providential that I photographed the picture of the "Road to Success" sign while on the way to one of Olivia's basketball games and then met the gentlemen pictured above on the way home from that same game at a little McDonalds we...
Sometimes it’s hard to feel "royal"….
I Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood..... I decided to clean off one of Olivia's shelves while she was "quarantined" to her room. As I went through piles of barrettes, crafts, chap sticks, and random little toys, I came across these supplies for...
Special Weekend….
All of the kids were here this weekend, and we were able to share some special time with them and their girlfriends. Olivia has been sick, so she didn't appear in too many photos this time...she's been spending a lot of time watching movies in her room. But I thought...
Bathroom Revival…..
When water started leakng through the ceiling in our living room about a month ago, we realized that the floor in our upstairs bathroom was in major need of repair! It's one of those things that probably could have been fixed in a simpler way, but when I found...
Early Morning Revival…….
An early morning revival. Have you ever needed one? I need one every day. Problem is, sometimes I try to start the day other ways. Exercise. Getting things done on my list of things to do. Cleaning. Doing laundry. Or whatever seems to be pressing on my mind or in my...
The Strangest Dream…….
Have you ever woke up in the morning and thought, "I dreamt all night long," and then sat and tried to remember your dream. Well, I did this morning, because I knew that there was something about it that I needed to remember. See, my dream went from fun to very scary...
