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!

I've always read the story of the Israelites FINALLY reaching the Promised Land and felt so sorry for Moses. Think about all He had done...... He had stretched himself WAY out of his comfort zone (he didn't even feel like he was a good speaker)...... He had been such...

"I’m Just ……."
Yesterday at the literacy training I attended in Frankfort, I overheard one of the teachers talking to a literacy consultant as I was walking out of the room. As she began to ask a question, she said, "I'm just an English teacher.." The literacy consultant quickly...
Unknown Roads………
I'm heading out this morning on a two-hour journey to a literacy training. I've been to the town before, but I've never been to this particular building; and from the directions it sounds as if construction may make the parking area tricky to find. I get a little...
Todd………….
When I started doing updates on all of our kids, I had every intention of getting a few new pictures of Todd to share in his post; then one thing happened after another and the next thing I knew, several weeks had passed, and I had not yet written his update. This...

I'll write tonight, but I just had to say, "Happy Friday!!"I love you,
The Power of Being Still……..
Isaac went out into the fields to meditate, and when he looked up, behold, the camels were already coming. Genesis 24:63 I am so thankful this verse is in the Bible. You know what it says to me? It says, "God is working BEFORE I choose to be still." And...
Shhhhhhhh………..
Every time I try to type, I feel as if God is whispering, "Shhhhhhh.....listen, don't speak." Wondering what He's wanting me to hear today. JOHN 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. Praying you are listening too,
