To grant to those who mourn in Zion, to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit.

Isaiah 61:3 · ESV

When you are in a season of mourning, it can feel like your heavy burdens will never lift. God promises to bring beauty from your ashes, replacing sorrow with joy, and despair with praise. Look for His transformative touch in your pain.

Affirmation

I am bringing my ashes to a God who trades. He gives beauty, oil, and praise. I do not have to stay in the burning.
