From ashes to beauty

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

 Jeremiah 29:11

”They shall neither hunger nor thirst,
Neither heat nor sun shall strike them;
For He who has mercy on them will lead them,
Even by the springs of water He will guide them.”

“If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.  He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”

Now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
I will even make a road in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert.”

Forgiven

forgivness

Your grace speaks louder than my shame,

my mistakes, all my failures.

 

Your blood covers all my transgressions,

through your sacrifice at the cross

i

am

made

clean.

 

Just because of what you did,

not because of what i can do.

 

Your arms are open wide.

Your love will never fail me.

 

All I can do is just to receive your grace

and your grace is enough for me.

 

Through your eyes, i am beautiful.

 

You won´t hold my sin against me,

there´s  no condemnation for those who believe in you.

 

Thank you Jesus- your love is greater than i can comprehend!

 

”Those who look to him are radiant;
   their faces are never covered with shame.”
//Psalm 34

”I said, “I will confess
    my transgressions to the Lord.”
And you forgave
    the guilt of my sin.”
//Psalm 32

I´m yours

I know the Lord is always with me.
    I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.

No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.
    My body rests in safety.

For you will not leave my soul among the dead
    or allow your holy one to rot in the grave.

You will show me the way of life,
    granting me the joy of your presence
    and the pleasures of living with you forever.

Psalm 16

You are faithful

”For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jer.  29:11


Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
Psalm 23 :4-6
