Book Description

Hi, my name is Cassie Louis, and the purpose of me writing my book is, I was diagnosed with the HIV virus five years ago. I must say, God has put on my heart, and he has also changed my heart so that I can help, change, and heal souls that are struggling with this same illness. Now I personally want to also help, change, and heal souls that are struggling with this illness. I know without a fact and without a doubt that many souls are suffering with the struggles of this illness. I know because I have come in contact with many, and they all state the same struggles as I have once had in my past. To your thought, my book is all about freeing the souls that is currently struggling and suffering today with the HIV virus and AIDS. And also I want to save the world with my healing and with my blessings. My book is stating to the victims that they can live again simply because they have stopped due to the fact of the stereotyping and the opinions of others in this world. My book will talk to their souls and their hearts. My book will put smiles on their faces. They will never frown again when relating to this illness, which is the HIV virus and AIDS. When theyve read my book, they will laugh instead of always cry. When the victims read my book, they will then know and feel the security of God. They will say I am just fine only and just because God is in control and because he is going to allow me to live. As they read, the victims will recover from their pain and they will gain back the lives that they had lost. They will see the sunshine from the sun, and they will see the light from life again. But this time, it will be a different light. It will be the light of grace coming to rescue, save, and welcome them back into the life that they never thought they had, which is the spiritual life. The life where your experience pure happiness, joy, blessings, happy and cherished moments, peace, and much more. So when my book is and has changed and saved lives, then I will say to myself and to God that I have made a difference to the world. My heart will be contented, and also it will be at peace, knowing that I have indeed changed, saved and also healed the world. The Xlibris Publishing Company is my reason and also my synopsis of what my book is all about. And I want to thank you from my heart and my life for helping me accomplish this mission. Because overall, its about others and saving souls.

Book Description

Scripture reveals a God who meets us where we are, not where we pretend to be. No More Faking Fine is your invitation to get honest with God through the life-giving language of lament. If you've ever been given empty clichés during challenging times, you know how painful it is to be misunderstood by well-meaning people. When life hurts, we often feel pressure--from others and ourselves--to keep it together, suck it up, or pray it away. But Scripture reveals a God who lovingly invites us to give honest voice to our emotions when life hits hard. For most of her life, Esther Fleece Allen believed she could bypass the painful emotions of her broken past by shutting them down altogether. She was known as an achiever and an overcomer on the fast track to success. But in silencing her pain, she robbed herself of the opportunity to be healed. Maybe you've done the same. Esther's journey into healing began when she discovered that God has given us a real-world way to deal with raw emotions and an alternative to the coping mechanisms that end up causing more pain. It's called lament--the gut-level, honest prayer that God never ignores, never silences, and never wastes. No More Faking Fine is your permission to lament, taking you on a journey down the unexpected pathway to true intimacy with God. Drawing from careful biblical study and hard-won insight, Esther reveals how to use God's own language to come closer to him as he leads us through our pain to the light on the other side, teaching you that: We are robbing ourselves of a divine mystery and a divine intimacy when we pretend to have it all together God does not expect us to be perfect; instead, he meets us where we are There is hope beyond your heartache, disappointment, and grief Like Esther, you'll soon find that when one person stops faking fine, it gives everyone else permission to do the same.

Book Description

For many people, remaining optimistic and feeling positive about themselves and their lives is a constant battle—especially when circumstances are difficult and life is hard. For others, negativity is something that only sneaks up from time to time, yet still wreaks havoc in their hearts. Regardless of the root causes, once pessimistic thoughts permeate our minds, our feelings and emotions begin to control us instead of us controlling them. Eventually it doesn’t seem possible to stay positive, happy, and full of joy, and negative thought patterns shake our faith, causing us to sink emotionally, mentally, and spiritually over time. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Despite what storms roll in, hearts anchored in God don’t sink. When we change the way we think, we can change the way we feel and live, even if our circumstances remain the same. Intentionally embracing the opportunity to experience a transformed heart and a renewed mind opens the door for a changed life, because a positive mind will always lead to a more positive life. In Unsinkable Faith, author and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker Tracie Miles offers hope for women who struggle with negativity. Each chapter explores Tracie’s and other women’s personal stories, showing how they rose above their circumstances by transforming and renewing their minds. Unsinkable Faith is a breath of fresh air for anyone longing for a heart full of joy, an unbreakable smile, and a new, more optimistic perspective on life. This book will equip you to: Replace pessimism with positive thinking by becoming the captain of your thoughts; Learn how true joy and happiness are based on choice, not circumstances; Overcome unhealthy habits of negative thinking by intentionally implementing three easy mind-renewing steps; Stop feeling hopeless and pitiful, and start feeling hope-filled and powerful instead; and Discover that when you change the way you think, you change the way feel, and in turn you can change your life completely.
