Isaiah 61:3
". . . and provide for those who grieve in Zion
to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor."
No matter what, God desires to resurrect
and bring new life, abundant life.
As a wise man noted in the restaurant today:
"Just goes to show you how God brings good from the bad."
He does and He is and I am so thankful.
