I had to laugh when I ran across this picture tonight while updating Nick’s website!
About three weeks ago, our two oldest sons came home from college for the summer! Of course, along with them came all of their dirty, sour, nasty laundry! This doesn’t look like much…..but this was just the first of many, many mounds of wet, stinky socks, underwear, bedding, etc.!
For three days straight our washer and dryer ran practically 24/7! At the time, I was exhausted! (Thankful to have my big boys back home, yet overwhelmed at what they had dumped at my feet!)
Tonight, I sit on my couch thankful…..thankful that the laundry is all caught up! Thankful that my oldest boys have each completed another year of college! thankful that Nick is doing so well! But mostly thankful for a Father who allows me to literally “dump everything at His feet” year round and yet He never becomes exhausted!
Is. 40:28 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. 29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
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!
