About Jill English Johnston

God writes His story on every heart, if we only pause to read it. My heart has lived in a fantasy world since early childhood and am delighted that God has finally brought me to the place where I can bring the fantasies to life through story. I am currently working on a fantasy trilogy (of course) but I also post thoughts, reflections and (hopefully) inspiration to my website: tabletsofhumanhearts.wordpress.com I am a follower of the Rabbi Jesus, married to my best friend and inspiration, and the mother of three incredible children, one daughter and two sons, a son-in-love, a daughter-in-love and two adorable granddaughters. When not writing, I passionately pursue prayer, reading (never enough time to read them all!), and the outdoors. My husband and I both served in the US Navy and have lived/travelled through many states and all over Asia. We both still enjoy travelling, but we really love our home in New Braunfels, located at the Texas Hill Country.

First Verse, a journey through the Psalms: Psalm 13

O Lord, how long will you forget me? Forever? How long will you look the other way? (Psalm 13:1, NLT) The silence of heaven.  The dark night of the soul.  The desert place.  We hurt.  We cry out to God.  But … Continue reading

First Verse, a journey through the Psalms: Psalm 12

Help, O Lord, for the godly are fast disappearing! The faithful have vanished from the earth! (Psalm 12:1, NLT) When you look around, do you feel as if the godly are fast disappearing?  Do you feel that the faithful have vanished … Continue reading
