I do a lot of running these days.
Running to school, running back home, running to golf practice, running to church, running to the store, running around the house picking up dirty laundry, running to the doctor with sick kids…………
Sometimes I envision myself as an ant running back and forth on her ant hill. I wonder what I’m really accomplishing that is going to last longer than the sandy mound on which I’m climbing. We all know that ant hills can accidentally be wiped off the earth by the unknowing swipe of a shoe. So where am I running that endures more than an accident?
When I run to Jesus, I find a moment of peace.
When I run to His Word, I find purpose and passion.
That’s the only running that truly stands the test of time.
For me, my “Walk with Him Wednesday” ran right into Thursday (IMAGINE THAT!).
If I stop running long enough to acknowledge that life without Him………without running to Him…….. is pointless, I suddenly feel better.
Something inside of me calms enough to allow me to close my eyes and simply say, “I love you, Jesus.”
I hope that on this Thursday you will find to walk with Him rather than run everywhere else……………………….
Close your eyes and know you are His,
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!
