Three weeks ago CSP's new college student leaders shared the gospel with 290 people at community colleges and Newport Beach. Here's another story of the Gospel changing lives, told from the perspective of Cassie Carsrud.
________________

This week, I experienced God's faithfulness, as he used me to share the good news of Jesus Christ.

I saw "Lily" sitting on the beach, hugging her knees in front of her, gazing out into the ocean. When I saw her, I immediately knew that she needed to hear about Jesus. I gently sat down beside her and noticed that she was softly crying. I told her that I had come over to tell her how much God loved her. She listened while I told her that God wanted her to be adopted into His family.

 I shared the gospel with her, and she said she had heard the story of Jesus before but never really understood why He had to die until now. We talked for a while, and she was so hungry to hear of God's love for her! I asked her if she would like to make a decision to enter into a relationship with God, and she replied 'I really do.' I led her in a prayer of repentance for sin and acceptance of God. After we prayed, I gave her a gospel of John and she said she would read it right away. 

 

As soon as I prayed with Lily, I was so filled with joy, and I told her how excited I was for her! She was now born again! I am overwhelmed by the fact that God could use me to lead someone into His eternal Kingdom! What a blessing to be the one to introduce her to God!

Praise God with us and keep praying for Lily and other new believers as they begin their new walks with Christ.
