Description

This episode explores finding joy and healing when life breaks you, focusing on exchanging beauty for ashes as described in Isaiah 61:3.

• Taking necessary spiritual breaks and resets to avoid exhaustion
• Responding to betrayal dreams with the oil of gladness instead of fear
• Wearing a garment of praise rather than a cloak of bitterness
• Understanding that turbulence often precedes elevation in life
• Letting go of our controlling nature to let God work
• Changing our perspective to see God's removal of people as protection
• Exchanging our ashes for a beautiful headdress through praise
• Finding smaller spiritual communities for deeper connection
• Trying different spiritual practices like Afro gospel music for refreshment
