Thank you Cassie for being our guest on DIB! Your blog is so encouraging. I know that there are so many who needed to hear your testimony of how God has provided and blessed without help from your husbands job. Truly, timely.

Cassie,
That was awesome! I’m going to take a lot from your story- I really needed that today. It’s so true what you said about the enemy.
I will keep James and you in my prayers:)

What a wonderful picture of what God has done in you and James in the past year.
I’m so encouraged and reminded of this … that what the enemy sends our way to destroy, distract and de-rail us – God takes and strengthens us, builds us, focuses us and blesses us with. But, we all have a choice to submit to the Holy Spirit or not. You and James made a choice and continue to make a choice everyday to trust God, to follow the Holy Spirit and to make your lives available for His will and work. Because of your choices, you are blessed and you are a blessing to all those around you.
Thank you for your vulnerability and for telling your story. I love it and I can certainly relate … as my husband was laid off 3 months ago, as you well know.
I pray that God would continue to fill the “box” of your heart and life with His abundance.

Love you friend!

A great perspective that made me reexamine my own attitude towards what’s going on in my life. It’s sharing great stories and perspectives like this that help us get through the day and know we’ll be okay in the end.
