Isaiah 61:3NLT

‘He will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair.’

The Lord wants to come and turn things around in your life.
He can exchange ashes for beauty, sadness for joy and despair for hope.
He can take our difficult past and turn it into something beautiful.
There is nothing that He cannot restore.

Let’s Pray…
Lord, thank You that You are the God Who can restore and turn things around. I realise that I can trust You with the things that I have been through because I know that You can do great things in my life.

Amen.
