Isaiah 62:3 is a scripture that has had a special meaning to me for several years now. It says, “You shall be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord.”
What does that mean? How can that possible apply to us after the death of our child?
A few years ago, God used this verse to show me how we can transform our lives to live out our rightful royal place in His Kingdom, no matter what we have been through on this earth, including the death of our child.
I believe there are three parts which will allow us to see the crown, wear the crown and be the crown of glory in Isaiah 62:3. In this episode, I share about the crown of our identity.
