On the way to work I kept thinking, ‘My right eye seems blurry. I must have my contact lens in upside down.”
When I arrived at school, I went straight to the restroom and discovered that there is actually no lens in my right eye! I don’t know how I managed that!
It’s going to be an interesting day with only half my eyesight.
As I sit here preparing for the day, I am asking myself this question,
“How many days do I live with only half of my vision focused on God?”
What a blurry world when I only see half of what God longs for me to see.
Today, I may be visually impaired but I do not want to be spiritually impaired.
“Lord, open my eyes and enlighten me with Your Word and Your messages that comes through events all around me. I don’t want to miss a thing!
Open the eyes of my heart, Lord!”
Psalm 119:17-19
Be good to your servant while I live,
that I may obey Your Word.
Open my eyes that I may see
wonderful things in Your law.
I am a stranger on earth,
do not hide your commands from me.


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 

Amen, to that! I think this would be a great post for Writer…Interrupted. If you’re interested, lmk!!
What a marvelous post. I am in training to look for the nuggets (God’s presence in my life) each and every day. They are there we just have to keep both eyes open to see them. Thank you for your post! Chris
