Christianity Oasis Member Forum & Chat Room

I have never found such a site as this. I am have only been here for a couple of weeks, and am working my way through the bible study with stepping stones. A year ago God promised me full freedom from dealing with an eating disorder. I was excited about the promise, though I did not know where it would take me. I have found myself in some very low spots since last year, though I have also seen some amazing miracles happen in my life as well. I have grown so much spiritually, and have let go of some bitterness, and have forgiven my dad of past abuse, and in return fallen in LOVE more with my Heavenly Daddy. I know I have a long ways to go, but I am dailly hanging on to the promise that God gave me. I struggle daily with the thoughts of the ED, and many days find myself falling back into the patterns. But I see hope. I see the strength in dailly committing not to give up and holding onto who i am in Him. I know that from a very young age, God had called me into ministry. I thought missions. I have found it easy and safe in children's ministries for many years, but feel him moving me in another direction. Though, Fear and falling back into the lies that satan temps me with keep me from going very far. each time I get into the ministry before, and am so excited, then I find myself lost, confused, and back into fear, and then the ED to follow. I know that God is directing me somewhere now, and I have dove into his word, and he has given me promises, and a plan for how to go about it, but fear holds me back. I say I want to go forward, and days later I find myself 2 steps back. God continues to lead me, and the passion is growing stronger. I just don't know what the 1st step should be. I don't know if I need to continue to rest for awhile, going on 3 1/2 years, and continue to let him reveal areas in me, or to move forward.

I want to thank those who created this site. I can see how God can richly bless this.
