Text on poster: Fireweed is known for its glorious beauty--a beauty that often rises from the ashes of destruction left by wildfire. What an amazing miracle to behold in creation. Beauty from a place of death and destruction. This is what God promises to do in our lives if we turn our destruction over to Him: He will give us a crown of beauty instead of ashes, gladness instead of mourning, and celebration clothes instead of the heavy cloak of despair. Beauty for ashes--God's promise of healing and restoration in our lives. Isaiah 61, verses 1-3. C04064 1 photomechanical print (poster) : col. 61 x 46 cm. Transfer; Cindy Love; 2004;
