Transforming...

"...to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes..."
- Isaiah 61:3

God is Creator, Scientist, Lover, Writer, Father...the list goes on and on and on. One of His jobs is as a Transformer...improving things and making them more beautiful.

How incredibly grateful I am for this, to know that God can take me, a sinful human being, a girl who's made so many mistakes...and turn me into beautiful. I love that, I love how He's powerful enough to do that. Change scares me, it is terrifying, but when God does the changing, it makes it seem more less scary. There's a hint of hope, of a different future. One day, a perfect future, with no tears or pain.

Oh sweet one, transforming, describes the beautiful process of my life right now. A beautiful process of being in God's hands as He transforms.

Just stopped by from Heart Choices. So glad that I did. I hope you don't mind if I splash around a bit, this looks likes such a refreshing place to take a dip.

Splashing for His glory,
Sara

I don't stop by often enough, but when I do I am amazed at your insight. Much like Timothy, your youth is not a hinderance to your faith. Instead, your words speak Him loud and clear. Thank you for sharing.

Blessings.
