You’ll need to letgo of the ashes before you'll be able to see the beauty.

Did you know that God’s best work is turning ashes into beauty? But, before He can do a work in us, we must let go of the ashes.

We can’t hold onto the past and expect to go forward. We can’t dwell on what happened to us and expect God to turn things around. You also can’t harbor unforgiveness and hurt and trust that God’s going to honor your requests. But, once you let go and give it all to God, you’ll be blown away at how God can turn your life around.

It’s hard to see the beauty in anything when all that’s present is ashes.

God can turn hopeful dreams into reality.

Try it. Serve Him. Get to know Him and watch your life change for the better.

How do I know this? Because He changed me and He’s continually making me better every day.

He’s not done with me yet, and I look forward to every day with Him.

Isaiah 61:1 - “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;”
