Hope Reassured…

To all who mourn in Israel
 
He will give a crown of beauty for ashes,
 
a joyous blessing instead of mourning
 
festive praise instead of despair.
 
In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks
 
that the Lord has planted for His own glory.
 
Isaiah 61:3

    This verse is so beautiful! My mother is under hospice care right now. My entire family knows the Lord, so we have all experienced joyous blessing over hopeless mourning while we await her homecoming. God is so faithful-praise Him. God bless and thanks for this verse today!

      Tracy, I want to echo God’s faithfulness with you. I am encouraged to know you’re holding up and believing God over your mom. I pray you continue to have strength for the days ahead. God bless you and thanks for being graceful in sharing your experience.
