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!

What Trust Looks Like
Have you ever found yourself facing something you can't control? Something bigger than you. Something hard. In moments like these, it's one thing to say, "God, I trust you." It's a whole other thing to really mean it. I can say I trust God all day long, but if I find...
When Life Gets in the Way of Really Living
It's always risky when I open up like this, but I have to be honest. It's been a weird week for me. A week where I've felt somewhat like a spiritual spectator in empty stands. A week where I've felt a bit disconnected from God. A week where prayer has seemed like...

The Game of Life
If man can create such a beautiful view for watching two teams play baseball, I can't begin to imagine the view God has created for the cloud of witnesses who are cheering us on from Heaven? Today as you dive into whatever your Tuesday holds, remember you are on the...
If You Need Help
I've found myself in lots of hard places in life - as a wife as a mom and even as a friend. But I've never found a place too hard for God to handle. When I'm struggling, I can talk and talk and talk about a situation but until I stop and look up, I'm simply spinning...
The Complicated Thing About Grief
Grief is so much more than an emotion. It's one thing to say a person is sad, or happy, or confused, or regretful, or depressed, or even angry. You can picture sadness. You can imagine happiness. You can understand feelings of confusion. You can empathize with...

Change Your Thoughts – Change Your Life
I'm a big Joyce Meyer fan. She doesn't tiptoe around the truth. She says it like it is and doesn't leave room for any excuses. When I'm struggling with something or need a good kick in the pants, I'll often listen to a series of her messages because I know I'll walk...
A Decorating Tip
If I could give one piece of advice to kids today, it would be this: Choose your friends wisely. As a teacher, I see lives changed for the good and for the bad with this one decision. As a mom of mostly adult children, I still have the same prayer for all of my kids....
