Ending Your Day RightSample
Exchange Ashes for Beauty
Do you know God wants to take care of you? It's true. He wants you to give Him all your cares, your problems, your failures, your "ashes", and in exchange He will give you beauty.
Many people want God to take care of them, but they continue worrying or trying to figure out the answers to their problems instead of waiting for His direction. They continue to wallow in their "ashes" and expect God to give them beauty. But it doesn't work that way, God can only give you beauty when you give Him the ashes.
It's a great privilege to be cared for by the King of kings, so give up your worries and concerns to Him and enjoy His protection, stability, and fullness of joy.

About this Plan
Spending time with God at night before you go to bed is an extra special time. Ending Your Day Right is a time-specific devotional to help you focus on God at the end of your busy days. This evening devotional will help you have unhurried time to relax in God's presence, reflect on the day's activities, acknowledge and thank Him for His presence throughout the day and seek His help with any unresolved problems or concerns. In the quiet solitude of the night, He will refresh and restore you, lead you in paths of righteousness and teach you how to enjoy every day of your life.
