Day 40 "And You Are Beautiful"
Display of God’s Glory
Good Morning Beauties!
You are here, Day 40! With dedication and devotion to Jesus, you made it. Despite sacrifice and discomfort, you made it. Congratulations! It’s no small thing to have completed this 40 day journey - most do not finish.
Let’s look at this beautiful passage in the book of Isaiah as it speaks of the transformation Jesus brings.
“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.”
~ Isaiah 61:1-3 (NIV)
Is this your story? Has Jesus taken your brokenness (ashes) and transformed it into (a crown of) beauty? It may have been an unexpected piece of your heart, but He found it and revealed it to you. What’s your story? Selah.
Remember Beauty, He knows what you need to fulfill the purpose He gave you - that He specifically designed you to accomplish all for His Glory. Will you thank Him for the change He’s brought to you through this journey? Selah.
