An abandoned house burned down in my town some time ago, and one day when I was driving by I noticed these beautiful flowers growing in front of the ruins. I had to stop and get some pictures! I got the inspiration of "beauty from ashes" from this Scripture verse in Isaiah. π It reminded me of how God can always make something beautiful from something seemingly wretched. That means that while we breathe there is hope for all of us! βΊ
"...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." - Isaiah 61:3 KJV
