I'm Ready to Write Again

It's been almost two years since I posted and I've decided it's the right time to get back to writing. We have gone through some pretty big trials in the past two years and it's hard to explain but during that time I found it too painful to write. You would think having so much time on my hands would be the perfect opportunity to write here or to start that book I've been talking about for years, but every time I tried to put my thoughts down I would just feel like a failure and mourn, once again, how my health had totally disrupted our lives.

The main thing I want to say today is that God is faithful! He got me through leaving a job that I dearly loved. He brought me to the right doctor to find out what no other doctor in two other states could figure out. I know it's by the healing power of Jesus that I am recovering so well from two huge operations on my knee. God is the faithful in His love, grace, mercy, understanding and forgiveness! God believed in me when many did not. To Him be all the glory!

I have forgiveness towards those who thought they knew what was going on in my life but were totally wrong. I've tried to be "the bigger person" and not go back and defend myself or offer proof that they were wrong because I just wanted to move forward and begin to heal.

So here's to the beginning of a new chapter in the Eilers' family! Thanks be to God and thanks to all those who have stood by us. We a rich in friends!
