Please visit often. Put visiting this site on your list of eating disorder coping skills. You can use this site as a distraction from engaging in eating disorder behaviors. On this home page, look for “This Month’s Musings” where you’ll find snippets about various eating disorder factors. In the section, “This Week’s Point to Ponder,” watch for a new verse, quote or thought-provoking question each week which relates to the topic for the month. You may want to use these features for journaling exercises. Perhaps you’d also like to discuss them with your counselor or with others in your support group or on your support message board.

If you are interested in having an e-mail mentor to walk with you through your recovery, see the ED Mentor page.  There is such value in communicating with someone who can relate to what you are experiencing.

On the Recovery Helps page, find journaling pages, articles to share with your loved ones, song lyrics and poems. 

The Recovery Stories page contains testimonials of those who have recovered from their eating disorders. May reading these stories encourage you to continue forward in your own eating disorder recovery.

To focus on the special person you are, uniquely created by God, see the Christian Recovery page and soak in the truth of those words. You'll also find the Serenity Prayer, an Eating Disorder Prayer, Psalms as well as information on identity in Christ. This is a great page for anyone who is considering or is in Christian eating disorder recovery.

To educate your loved ones about your eating disorder or if your loved one has an eating disorder, see the Friends & Family page. You'll find articles as well as links to other websites.

If you would like to review past "Musings" and "Points to Ponder" as well as articles on these vital eating disorder topics, visit the ED Articles page.  

Find links to loads of articles, resources and treatment finders as well as message boards and more on the ED Resources page. You'll also find links to other great recovery and ministry sites.

When you want a break from everything or if you want something to distract you from eating disorder behaviors, go to the Coping Skills page to find reading material, humorous writings and links to humor websites.

 This Month's Musings
Forgiveness

As I’ve pondered what forgiveness means, I’ve heard myself saying, “But what that person did wasn’t okay.” Sometimes the person won’t take responsibility for his/her actions and that makes it even more difficult to forgive. On the other hand, what choice do we have? If Christ could forgive me for every sin I’ve ever committed, how dare I withhold forgiveness toward someone else? Furthermore, doesn’t the refusal to forgive only allow the person to continue hurting me? I’ll admit I struggle in this area. I find that as I journal and prayer, however, the Lord often gives me insights that lead me into a forgiving spirit. I believe God can bring good out of even the worst circumstances when we forgive.
