No matter what you’re facing,
I promise there’s a bright side if you determine to find it.
Whether you’re facing a hospital room, a stressful job, or even a too-quiet house,
you can find a bright side today.
It may take some creativity.
But, it’s there.
Light is in that darkness.
Think about this:
A candle that shines in a dark room may think “There is no light here,” as it looks around in every direction;
but to the rest of the darkness the candle is the light.
So, today, no matter how dark the day seems,
no matter how dreary,
remember this:
There is a bright side to every dark place when we take Jesus there.
Because when we take Jesus, we become the bright side.
Take Him with you today……..
and shine.
Suddenly, the darkness of a room will be filled with His light,
and the glow of His love will create the bright side to an otherwise not-so-bright day.
Let your light shine before others,
that they may see your good deeds
and glorify your Father in heaven.
Matt. 5:16
For God, who said, “Let light shine
out of darkness,”
made his light shine in our hearts to
give us the light of the knowledge of
God’s glory displayed in the face of
Christ.
II Cor. 4:6
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 
Matthew 5:16 is one of my favorite verses. I love the Voice Bible version.
“You are like that illuminating light. Let your light shine everywhere you go, that you may illumine creation, so men and women everywhere may see your good actions. may see creation at it’s fullest, may see your devotion to Me, and may turn and praise Your Father in heaven because of it.”
That’s what He wants us to do as writers…and you do it very well. <3
