Confessions of Cassie: I struggle, too

Okay, okay. It’s time for a confession, y’all. Yep, I struggle, too.

Last week, I shared a post with you about how to combat the lies Satan throws at you and how to win the battle.  (Also, there’s a giveaway, on that post, too.  You could win a set of phone cases from Prone to Wander, sponsored by FrontGate Media! Giveaway ends on 4/25/2018.)

I even straight up said in that post “when Satan wants to come around and join your pity party, shut it down.”  That line, friend, will preach.

And what happened on Monday of this week?  Yep, I was having myself a good, old fashioned pity party.

How to Combat Satan’s Lies + Giveaway

You know how sometimes I’ll share neat, little stuff with you and sometimes there’s a giveaway?  Keep reading for your chance to enter a phone case from Prone to Wander LA (sponsored by FrontGate Media).  These cases are great when you need a reminder of the goodness of the Lord to help you combat Satan’s lies!

Do you ever have those days where everything just seems to go wrong?  Like, reaaal wrong?

The car wouldn’t start and you ended up embarrassingly late for work.

Your hair dryer gave up the ghost halfway through drying your hair.  And then you had no choice but to look like a half-drowned homeless goat for the rest of the day.

And then, to top if off, McDonald’s gave you unsweet tea when you ordered the sweet tea instead.  No one likes a cup of dirt water.  That’s a bad day, y’all.

Trusting the Process: God is the Potter

So, I’ve been reading Christine Hoover’s Searching for Spring, right?  I wrote this post referencing her book and I promised I would share some more of it with you.  I love when I read something and things finally make sense.  Like, when God is the Potter and we are the clay.  I’ve heard that reference a thousand times, but I don’t think I’ve ever truly understood what it meant until now.  Which, is a shame.  You’d think I would’ve understood a long time ago.

Keep reading, you’ll see what I mean in a second.

(Quick side note: Christine’s Searching for Spring has officially launched.  You can purchase a copy here!  10/10 would recommend.)

How to Make Disciples and Grow the Kingdom

The week before last, I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with the author of a new commentary, Genuine Christianity.  Justin Miller, the author, is Lead Pastor of his church in Puxico, Missouri.  He also trains pastors to go out into the world and plant and revitalize churches.  What I didn’t know at the time of signing up to interview him was that his book focused on Paul’s letter to Titus.  And if you know me, Titus is my absolute favorite book of the Bible.  Short, yes.  But, it is also a great directive on how the Church should operate.  Not to mention, how the Church can make disciples and grow the kingdom.

Justin Miller and Genuine Christianity

While Justin is now currently the Lead Pastor of his church, his story of how he got there is amazing.  Justin told me when he was eleven, he asked someone to buy him a Bible.  The next year or so later, he was baptized, but never truly understood what grace or salvation was.  Justin was one of those kids that thought God was just ready to judge him and condemn him for every little thing.  I’m sure we, ourselves, can relate.  But, we also know that God is good and He doesn’t do that.  Salvation- true salvation– is a great thing, friend!
