The Story of these Hearts From God...
In 2009...
...my heart forever changed and God began sending me His Hearts from above, for my heart below. Hearts everywhere...it's magical and fun!
Hearts From God is now the official publishing side of Livin' Where Faith Is, my Encouragement Ministry, where I share how my mess turned into ministry, excuses turned into encouragement, hiding turned into helping and self-sabotaging turned into surrender, sharing and serving.
"Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"
Psalm 46:10 ESV
Even though I was born in church and gave my life to Him at an early age, I didn't truly understand God's gentle heart until soooo many years later in 2009 when God literally began showing me His Heart Hugs here in the every day. They were always right on time and exactly when I needed them. You can read more about this part of the story over on theblog since the book about the first heart hasn't been published YET!! (Coming Soon!).
It was here in this season I was forced into being still and knowing how much He Loves Us. In this season, I learned boundaries and surrender, choosing to live by faith instead of letting fear rule. This meant being confident and courageous in my decisions and getting structure to straighten out the chaos and help minimize the overwhelm...from in my heart and my home!
I began creating practical resources to help others get organized, learn to share their story/testimony and gain confidence to walk out their faith, capture God Moments and remember the goodness of His Love.

My Church Notes for The Family Collection
We know younger kids love to mimic the bigger kids and adults around them which why many pew
Bibles find themselves colored in by little well meaning hands.
My Church Notes Journals were created with the family in mind.
The adult versions, along with the teen (older child) incorporate space to write down what they feel God is saying during Quiet Moments with God
as well as ways to serve and bless others as The Lord leads their hearts to.
Young ones are able to participate in notetaking with text or drawings.
Young ones are able to participate in notetaking with text or drawings.
Adults are encouraged to ask their younger ones who they are praying for
and even opening the doors to pray for each other's hearts.
Created as a Diary-like Dream Journal-type of Journal for your special God Moments.
My Heart Hug From ME to YOU...Friend, If you are like me, you have felt both these things when you purchased a new journal or book...1.) You are eager to fill up your journal with tons of God Hugs, 2.) You order it only to feel defeated upon receiving it, flipping through wondering if it's even worth it to begin.
Yah, I get it!!!
SO.....I am here to join your spirit of YES!
I know it's not easy to be in tough places where you feel forgotten or unseen but I am here to remind you that your fight is not against flesh and blood! Get your armor and a pen and LET's Do This!
Let's agree to write down our moments we felt God's hug because one the next tough day, when you wonder where God is, you'll be reminded OHHHHH, He's near, I will trust His heart for me.
When I began blogging these moments back in 2009, I was surprised and comforted at how often and so random God hugged me over the seasons. I pray this journal isn't like a typical Diary of your day. The pages inside this journal will become a sacred collection of living stone moments for your heart. Write them down and pray your praise of thanksgiving!
This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!!!
Sister Friend, You are more than a Conqueror. You are seen, heard, loved and closer to His heart than you realize!! Hugs and Blessings, Your Sister in Christ,
Michele

The MY FEELINGS Collection
My Heart Feelings beginner journal books are great for children learning the daily habit of journaling, checking in with their heart feelings and practicing taking their hearts
to the Lord in prayer.
to the Lord in prayer.
As a Mom, I wish I had made these for my kids when they were younger. It's a great way to see what they choose as their feelings that day and be able to connect with them better and encourage them to cast their cares to the The Lord in prayer daily, in good times and bad!
There are several different covers to choose from, all with the same inside pages. The goal is to make it fun and easy for kids to daily check in and pray.
Hope this helps you engage with your child's heart in a way that blesses your heart too!

Before I sign off...
Here are some of God's heart encouragements...
"Therefore, having this ministry by the mercy of God,
we do not lose heart.
For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.
We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;
2 Corinthians 4:1, 5-9
“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-26 ESV
“Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!” Psalm 27:14 ESV
“O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.” Psalm 63:1-4, 7 ESV
Okay Sister Friends, Let's Do This! Hugs & Blessings y'all,
Michele
