Isa 61:3
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
It's snowing heavy today. Could be up to 8 inches but it's fluffy snow, It's so clean and pretty.
I visited Dad this morning, he is in a rehab center and doing well.

I was thinking about, why ashes. Ashes to ashes and dust to dust. Took me through some of the Law of Moses and how rhe priests had to handle the ashes. Led me to Job renting his clothes and sitting in ashes. And then psalms where it speaks about eating ashes.
Which led me to Isaiah where all of these ashes are turned into beauty.
Kind of like, ashes are sacrifices of life but in the end, not forgotten.
The oil of Joy for mourning. Thou anointest my head with oil.
A garment of Praise for the Spirit of heaviness. I wonder what that would look like... kinda shiny I'm thinking.... would fit perfectly and comfortably and yet humbly and greatful.
Trees of Righteousness... the Planting of the Lord. I've seen groves of apples and oranges and grapes, but Trees of Righteousness...
Tall and Strong and Faithful. Ever bearing good fruit.
It's a Beauiful day today.
Thank you for all yor thoughts and prayers.
He hears us.
Much Love
