Biography
Dear Reader...
First, let me introduce myself to you! My name is Diane K Chamberlain and I'm the author of three books...my newest book..."Time Alone With God:A Devotional Study for Discovering Renewed Hope in God" and "The Rainbow in the Storm: Finding Hope Where There Isn't Any" and "You Are Not Alone In A Lonely World" but most of all, I'm just an ordinary person like everyone else. I have lived through many trials and have had my faith tested numerous times.
My story began when I was around 7 years old or should I say at birth. Our family lived in the outskirts of a small town in Michigan, where we only lived a pathway away from where my favorite great-grandfather lived. I loved his place because he had an orchard with all kinds of things to enjoy and explore. While playing outside one day, with my brothers and sister, I suddenly fell to the ground, experiencing a great amount of pain. After several days, my mom noticed that I was not walking very well, so she took me to the doctor. After x-rays and an exam, the doctor told my mother that my knee was dislocated and that he would have to tap the knee back into place. Little did I know, that this first doctor's visit would take me on a long journey...a journey through 21 major knee surgeries, in an attempt to correct the congenital problem in both knees. To this day, I live with a bad left knee, that's constantly deteoriating and a rod in my right leg.
As my journey continued from there, the memories of a past sexual abuse began to surface and in my early 20's, I lost all hope of having children. There were times that I felt as though I had been stripped of everything in my life, except for the very breath that I breathed. As each loving desire left, desires to ride a bike, drive a car, and have children, God was replacing these desires with a ministry that would encourage and uplift others in need. God took the empty voids in my life and filled them with Himself and gave me the heart that would be able to connect to another heart in need. He had to turn His head for one moment of satisfaction, so that I would follow through with the plan He had for my life.
God took a girl that always struggled in school, a girl that felt as though nothing could go right in her life, a girl that lived in her own world of disability, and He took the brokenness and repieced her broken heart, mind and spirit, in a way, where He could allow her to be who she is today. God has shown me over and over again, that we can rise above these moments of despair and we can win the battles in our lives, as long as God is walking through the storm with us.
I thank you for your time and for sharing my life with me. Please take the time to come back and enjoy the writings that God has given me to share with you! May you truly find God's very best for your own life!
Blessings...
It's Only Because of Him...
