Beauty for Ashes
Beauty for Ashes by Crystal Lewis
He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair
When sorrow seems to surround you
When suffering hangs heavy o’er your head
Know that tomorrow brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said
When what you’ve done keeps you from moving on
When fear wants to make itself at home in your heart
Know that forgiveness brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said
I once was lost but God has found me
Though I was bound I’ve been set free
I’ve been made righteous in His sight
A display of His splendor all can see
How's your heart feeling today?

It's interesting to sit here and try to decide how my heart is feeling. It's not something I normally think about on a conscious level.
I guess my heart feels a bit apprehensive about some things, yet I have a feeling of well-being that seems to cover the apprehension. How's that for contradictory?
Today I will also have a real heart, a true heart.

My heart is excited...because some exciting things are happening this weekend. Also relieved because it's Friday, and tomorrow I get to relax. I love this song, Bev. And the picture is beautiful!
P.S. Don't you ever sleep?
