Rejoice in the Lord always;
again I say,
“REJOICE!”
Phil 4:4
I don’t know about your day-to-day life, but mine has some fairly stressful and difficult moments. Testing nears at school and all teachers are feeling the anxiety of making sure their students are ready. Spring sports have begun so after-school planning has become a necessity. Children’s choices that are out of my control often leave me unable to sleep. Life is tricky and the devil would love to steal all of my joy.
I cannot let him win.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world..the Bible promises me this! And it promises you the same thing!
Today, I have to leave early because FCA meets before school. Today, I have to prepare a whole new set of lesson plans over content that stretches me further than I really wanted to go….algebraic functions. Today, I have to drive straight from school back to the wound center for hopefully my LAST appointment. Today, Olivia starts golf and Todd has tennis practice.
I have to leave our home repeating the verse above. It’s the only way I can cope today.
I love you all and I’m praying that you can repeat with me, REJOICE IN THE LORD ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love you all so much,
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!
