Heavenly Father,
Thank You for being the God who brings beauty from ashes. In the midst of my pain and sorrow, I cling to Your promise of transformation. Take my ashes—my brokenness, grief, and despair—and exchange them for beauty, joy, and praise.
Help me trust in Your healing power to make all things new. As You work in my heart, may I become like a sturdy oak, rooted in Your love and reflecting Your glory. Thank You for the hope and healing You offer. I surrender my ashes to You, trusting in Your perfect plan.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
