The Story Behind Beauty for Ashes

I took my first “red pill” in April 2020. The government lockdowns had just begun, and I kept waking up at 3am. One morning (at 3am), I asked God if He would talk to me, tell me what was going on, and explain why I kept waking up at this specific time. And He answered! I heard Him speak, “Come downstairs”. It was like being in a movie, and I questioned if that was truly God speaking to me until I heard it again, “If you want me to talk to you, come downstairs.” So I did as He asked. As I sat in the darkness, with my bible on my lap and looking out into the still night outside, I heard His words that forever changed my life’s trajectory. “What you have known, will never be again. What has been will not look the same ever again.” And those were the words that foretold what was to come, in my life and in our world.
