to grant to those who mourn in Zion— to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified. They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations. Strangers shall stand and tend your flocks; foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers; but you shall be called the priests of the LORD; they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God; you shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their glory you shall boast. Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion; instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot; therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion; they shall have everlasting joy. For I the LORD love justice; I hate robbery and wrong; I will faithfully give them their recompense, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. Their offspring shall be known among the nations, and their descendants in the midst of the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are an offspring the LORD has blessed. I will greatly rejoice in the LORD; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

Your scars are proof of the battles you have been through. This three-day plan will walk you through what it means to allow God to use your scars for His glory.

Based upon the Redemptive Story of Scripture, "Broken Into Beautiful" looks at the way God reveals, restores and redeems beauty in our lives. We will explore how it is that we can be His Masterpiece and a Work In Progress all at the same time. How we can find beauty in the ashes of our brokenness, and how we can trust that God can and is creating beauty from those ashes. "Broken Into Beautiful" is our Redemptive Story… Written by Hannah Hobbs with Catrina Henderson.
