"To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified"
Isaiah 61:3
“I believe the Lord is saying, I will give you beauty for the ashes you are standing in. These ashes will birth a beautiful flower for all to see. You will have joy for the mourning. All you have lost, I am returning to you and then some. Your life is a reflection of my heart. My hand is on your head and the heads of your children. Stand firm in these ashes; I did not place you here but I will make them beautiful.”

Excellent book for everyone! Makes you really identify what is important in your life and understanding how God sees you through the good and the hurts in life. I love how Beth explained how being unforgiving can ruin your own life going forward. She takes a deep look at mistakes she has made, identifies them and with Prayer and God’s grace has been able to forgive herself, forgive others and has made a beautiful life for herself. I love how she is so willing to share her ministry with others.

LOVE…LOVE…LOVE this testimony!!!
I could NOT put Beautiful Ashes down!
As I read Beautiful Ashes, I thought and reflected on empty parts of my life. Other times I would think about my Daughter and good friend who has gone through divorces and could benefit from the delicate words Beth shared from her experience to help them become whole from their experiences. I knew it would be a perfect gift for them and for my other Daughter who is currently in a marriage.
This book is perfect for anyone and everyone. I highly recommend it!

It was an honor and night of joy as I attended and watched my friend Beth Shuey McGuire launching her book “Beautiful Ashes”. Beth and I met in 2003 and became instant friends. Over 19 years we have lived and laughed, loved and cried, talked and prayed. I had an up close and very personal view of the journey that brought this book to light.
Please order on Amazon for yourself, buy for a friend struggling in pain, give to your pastors and Bible Study groups. A book that shows the incredible power of letting go, letting God, and the blessings that come through. I’m so proud of you Beth, and I love you with all my heart!

This is an honest, from the heart book that walks through how to find God in all events, good and bad. There is beauty in ashes and glory with God involved always, even if it doesn't seem that way immediately. This is beautifully written and a great message for everyone to read.

This lady knows and cares about the brutal emotions women feel before they can say beautiful. I can say this because my youngest daughter is living proof

This Book speaks truth in our falling world. She has put together her life with scriptures being the backbone as we need to be in it daily! Job well done my faithful servant.
