We are overjoyed to announce the birth of our first grandchild, Olivia Rae Leavitt! In this season of thanksgiving, her arrival is a powerful reminder that God truly brings beauty from ashes, transforming our deepest sorrows into moments of indescribable joy.
The words from Isaiah 61:3 echo in our hearts as we welcome this precious gift:
“To all who mourn… He will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair.”
Olivia’s birth reminds us of God’s faithfulness through every season of life. Just as He has walked with us through our valleys, He stands ready to offer comfort and strength to all who seek Him. If you’re facing a difficult time or feel the weight of loss, know that God is present, waiting to turn your sorrow into something beautiful.
We have seen His faithfulness time and again, and we know He will be faithful to you, too. Take heart, hold onto hope, and let God work His beauty into every corner of your life.
