  • I think you've found the best way to use tatoos: I really don't like them, but that idea was great and with a lot of significance. Good!!!

  • use to be suicidal until I found God. Recently got a tattoo covering up my scars that says "from ashes to beauty"

  • Here is a fantastic music video that the Christian world will love! It's called "Don't forget about the walk." It was written and created by a small town pastor that is also making a feature film and has written four books. You don't want to miss it! You can see the music video right now by searching for Alan Maki on youtube and finding the title of the song. It would only take a second to look! He has a website but websites are blocked on here. Look him up! He has devotionals and an app too!

  • Great post! Thanks for sharing!!

  • wow life changing.

  • 9/11, Maria, Joplin...Beauty WILL rise from the ashes.

  • Approx 2 thousand years ago, The Lord Jesus died a horrific death. His disciples were devastated. On Easter morning, Beauty arose.

    Jesus said I am the Resurrection and the Life

  • Great song! It reminds of me of the foreseen future....!

  • we're human made of soil and ashes, and what God want to say through this song is not just about your condition that symbolized as the ash. It also talk about us, as a human. God create us so perfect and so beautiful in His eyes.

  • I love this song

  • 5 People Need A Little Hope In Their Lives....

  • Great job.

  • who could dislike this song???

  • I love this song soo much ! Beauty will rise :) <3

  • Well done! Thanks!This is such a fabulous song....

  • Awesome some so beautiful

  • love the song, love the vid!

  • beautiful song, very beautiful melody, such beautiful christian music

  • Jesus does bind up the broken hearted, he does set the captives free. Praise Him . A bruised reed he will not break, a smoldering wick he will not put out.

  • Jesus does bind up the broken hearted, he does set the captives free. Praise Him.

  • CHOKED UP....SO BEAUTIFUL....GOD BLESS YOU..AGAPE LOVE :)

  • 1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

  • They played this song at my friends funeral....it really spoke to me.

    I love God :)

  • this a deeply beautiful song and the pictures you posted are perfect....thanks for sharing...

  • This song has different meanings for different people. For me, I listened to it constantly after I watched my home burn. It was my encouragment that God would comfort me. Would help me get through it. No matter where you connect with the song- the situations may be different but the outcome is always the same. Beauty for ashes....

  • i am so amazed what god can work out of such a tragedy! this song - no, the whole album is such a blessing for so many people like it would never have, if maria sue still lived. but she is living! there where she mostly wanted to be. though the pain here is really big it can't measure with the glory in heaven.

  • I have a hard time with "religion" stuff but this is nice.

  • I came across the song today and I just wept. I am going through a very recent divorce. He just asked for it last week. Told my body was disgusting and that he didn't want my daughters and I. I wondered if I could make it through. A woman who prayed for me said beauty out of ashes. I googled it to find the scripture reference...and this song came up. I am still weeping. God can do anything...may He somehow be glorified in this!!

  • @truluvwaited God will surely be your steadfast rock; mycousin is struggling with her own divorce, but hers is all the harder because she hasn't yet learnt to fall on God's grace, and is on her own feet; they are not strong enough to keep her standing. But you have the knowledge that you're standing on a God, rock-strong, who won't leave when others do, and truly He'll bring good out of what evil wreaks, for His own glory and your own good and growth. God bless you!

  • @truluvwaited You will make it through to the other side.I know the pain is tearing your heart apart but this is a walk you don't have to walk alone. Let others help you carry the pain and bring comfort to you and your daughters. Ask God to bring those special angels of mercy your way and He will. Families will invite you for dinner. Youth pastors will minister to your daughters. Counseling will bring you to the realization it is your husband's loss, not your's. Jesus loves you.

  • I have been in the ashes for some time and feel so greatful for the annointed songs of Steven Curtis Chapman and Michael W. Smith. I know" Beauty Will Rise" and there will be more" Healing Rain" in my life. Thank you to both of you for ministering to me. We are sometimes brought to our knees so we can "Be still and know that I am God"Psalm 46:10 My knees have rugburns.I'm ok with that

  • For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 cor 4:17

  • this song reminds me of how cruel and hard this life can be.... it also reminds me God is in control, and has always been in control......nothing that happens surprises the Lord HE IS IN CONTROL For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 Corinthians 4:17

    Brothers and Sisters stand firm in your faith and I hope to see all of you in eternity worshiping the creator

  • 1) I AM THE PROOF THE EVIDANCE..........THAT THERE IS A LIVING GOD..........

    2) I DON'T WORSHIP THE THING THAT I CREATE......I WORSHIP WHO THAT CREATED ME......

    3) IN THIS WORLD THERE IS ONLY TWO THING: GOOD AND EVIL..........CHOOSE ONE

    4) EVERY INDIVIDUAL ONE OF US KNOW THAT GOD LIVE..........BUT MOST REFUSE TO ADMIT THE TRUTH...........

  • @1shengthao you spelled evidence wrong... and there is more then two things there is good, evil, and mustard sssssooooooo.......

  • When I heard this it made me think that life is beautiful though more than beautiful with GOD in our thoughts, eyes, and hearts all over this world. This song has made me a more faithful and loyal servant to the one and ONLY GOD. Thank you GOD the one and only and thank you Steven keep STRONG.

  • In honor of 9-11 ...and to all of us who've watched dreams die!

  • my 25 yr. old daughter died in a car accident shortly before this song came out. This song along with God's love ( & love from family & friends ) saved my life. Beauty will rise has become my Mantra. Your take on it for 9/11 was great. Reminds me God will wipe our tears & make ALL things new

  • ya, beauty will rise again someday!

  • Great video..Love the song

  • Comment removed

  • This is to my aunt who got pregent but sadly da baby died =[ it was the worst news ever but den god gave them another chance now kyle is a happy 8 year old boy! my life would be so diff wit out him.. u c god is awsome n he does listen to our prayers! =]

  • @megmrox amen! God is so good. He sees the Bigger Picture :)

  • Although this song is so sad, in a way it is also encouraging. The Creator is always there no matter what you are going through.

  • God is in control.

  • God is so good. In the darkest moments, I could look to the fact that He took that sin debt out of my life through the blood of Christ. I was constantly reminded through His word that for one who trusted in Jesus, all hope could not be lost. I look at the rest of this year with this one hope, that God is so good and He is there. I know what I am, a sinner, saved only by His grace, only by His forgiveness, which was bought through the blood of Christ. I leave with one question. Are you bot?

  • This has been year I've lived yet. I think about how everything I ever knew with the exception of one be blown into total falsehood. I remember the pain of those closest to me turning their backs on me and a family member getting wrapped up in the accursed drug trade. Besides that I was hit by a motorized scooter six weeks ago last Friday. I said in the beginning that everything I once knew with on exception was blown away. Let me share that. to be continued

  • Awesome, our momentary suffering, physically, emotionally, in any way, is not to be compared to the JOY of ETERNITY with our Savior and all those who've gone on before us. We're talking FOREVER !!!

  • Listen to this song as if GOD wrote it for his son the day Jesus died! God speaks in so many ways!! Thank you God for speaking through Steven in such a terrible time of his life, thank you Steven for sharing such a wondertful gift to so many at such a tough time! What we see is fractal to what God is seeing!!! It may be a mess to us, but in Gods eyes, BEAUTIFUL! HE can see the whole garden, all we see is the small landscape we are living in.

  • "Why does G-d allow death & suffering?"

    answersingenesis[.]org/media/a­udio/answers-daily/volume-087/­where-is-god-of-love

  • this song helped me with getting thru the loss of a 26 yr old who died suddenly in a car accident.

  • I went to see him perform last night. Steven sang this song.  This song is sad at first and beatiful at the same time.

  • cool video

  • just found out a friend will not be able to ever conceive, feel a child kick in her womb or the joy and pain of childbirth.......this song is for her!

  • just beautiful as a father of three, this makes me cry every time, although the song Cinderella make me even more so emotional. I cannot imagine the pain of losing a child. Without Christ I would be lost in that and many other situations

  • isn dis abt his daughter?

  • Yes, it is. I changed it up a bit. That's what the last few pictures were of. Second pic to the last is Maria Sue Chapman.

  • o..okay... its a beautiful song ^^ nice video

  • @debzcyj -- the entire album -Beauty Will Rise- were songs written after he lost his daughter. He recorded them while on the road... in hotel rooms, bathrooms, locker rooms, green rooms... wherever he could set up his guitar and computer. It is an amazingly and beautifully raw album.

  • @audioajunkie yes it is...=) my mum has a bookstore and sold this album :D

  • @debzcyj yes

  • yes, though directed to mourning Israel, the principle applies:

    "...to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness..." (Is 61:3)

  • 5 stars plus eternity.

    God Bless,

    Jim
