My heart is full of gratitude to God for allowing me to be in this place. Hello! My name is Eileen. I am embarking on a new venture in writing. Words have been stirring in me for a few years now and I’m praying this is God’s way of spurring me on to create this blog.
A few years ago, I found myself stuck in a difficult place. I’ve had painful times in the past but this snuck up on me and moved in quietly in the depths. Even though I was at a wonderful bible teaching church, I struggled to find people or teaching that addressed what I was going through. I was feeling crazy inside, not to mention feeling isolated and alone. What I didn’t know was that God was drawing me in to walk a path unpaved. I was up many nights, cried many tears, prayed lots of prayers, read my bible and wrote out my pain. I began to find companions through books, messages on Christian radio and received support in unexpected places. God used those pages, places and people to teach me and comfort me.
As healing started to take place, a passion began to stir, a desire to share just a bit of what I learned so that maybe others can have the courage to walk their own unpaved path. This is how Fine Lines in the Faith was born. These fine lines of God’s truth lead me to walk freer in Christ. It’s an oxymoron, really. Walk a finer line and experience freedom? Yes! Really, truly, yes! It’s ultimately for our good and His glory.
My desire is to write with biblical integrity. If I do not do this, then I do not want God to further this place or path. I pray this will be an encouragement in your faith and ultimately glorify our Heavenly Father.
One more thing…
We are not meant to walk this path alone. There are lonely times, yes; but God does not want us to be isolated, detached, suffering in a dark corner or hiding in the shadows. There is encouragement and hope. God is so good to take us through these most difficult times if we allow Him to take us there. All we need is to be willing to hang in there and stay there until He leads us out…freer, stronger and truer in Him.
Come join me in this journey!
