Beauty from Ashes

God is good and He loves to give good gifts to His children. Nothing is beyond His redemption. Making beauty from ashes--He trademarked it.

I have been reminded of these truths through beautiful stories about babies these past few weeks.

A sweet friend with three beautiful children and two little ones in heaven who recently gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Another newer friend who grieved over three little babies who were never born awaits her son's birth day any time now. Another who has a lovely family but dreams of just one more and waits to see how God will answer--however He does, I am confident beauty from ashes will be true for this woman, as well.

Jay and Katherine Wolf's story sums up what I'm trying to say beautifully. You can read more here.

However God writes your story, you can be confident of this. He is the God who makes all things new. New hearts, new lives, transforming our brokenness to look more and more like Jesus. God does all things well.
