Beauty for Ashes

He gives beauty for ashes
Strength for fear
Gladness for mourning
Peace for despair

When sorrow seems to surround you
When suffering hangs heavy oer your head
Know that tomorrow brings
Wholeness and healing
God knows your need
Just believe what He said

When what youve 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

This is from a song that is sung by Crystal Lewis. It is beautiful. I heard the reference to the bible verse on television this morning. I watched Joel Osteen and Dr. Young from Second Baptist. I really enjoyed him. Too bad his church is so far away.

They both talked about love. Agape Love. A giving love. Encompassing love.

I want to love like that. Sometimes I use wimpy love. I want to have MIGHTY love.

# 1 commandment... love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and body...
#2 commandment... love neighbor as you love yourself...

how can we love?

make LOVE number 1.
