Beauty for Ashes

We all carry "baggage" in our lives. Maybe some childhood hurts or abuse, maybe an unhappy marriage or the longing for marriage at all when relationship just never seem to work out. For many Virtual Spa Weekend visiters it's infertility or the death of your baby. Whatever heartache you are facing, there's only one place to take your pain to have that trash transformed to treasure. Watch this powerful video...



"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
- the words of Jesus, from The Message, Matthew 11:28-30

Wow. What a powerful testimony. It makes me wonder if Im the person that just adds the Bible making someones load heavier or the person that helps unload the baggage. Also makes me wonder what baggage I have that I still havent given to Jesus.

I also wondered what baggage I need to give to Jesus. I also have been struggling with how to share Jesus with some close friends. I know that I don't want to give them a bible and say "here you go". I had that done to me and it was many years later before I picked it up.

Thanks for the message.

That really made me stop and think about not only my own baggage but what baggage others maybe carrying.

I had seen something simular before but it didn't make such a strong point about how easily we can add to each others baggage. Well done!
