Beauty for ashes



"To all who mourn in Israel,
he will give a crown of beauty for ashes,
a joyous blessing instead of mourning,
festive praise instead of despair.
In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks
that the Lord has planted for his own glory."(Isaiah 61:3 NLT)

My prayer as we begin this week is that the Lord will give us beauty for ashes, a garment of praise for our heaviness.... Restoration so that we can continue to seek His glory in the midst of trials and sadness.
