one day take on the form of beauty, be restored to life, restored to light?

The Lesson of Ashes
ill these ashes
one day take on the form of beauty, be restored to life, restored to light?
The bodies of all of us will in a few years be ashes. Yet a few years ago
we were not even ashes!
If God was able to create what did not exist, will He not be able to remake what once existed?
-- Sermon 361, 12
Prayer. Lord, you are never new and never old. Yet you give new life to all things.
-- Confessions 1, 4
