📖 “He has made everything beautiful in its time.”

Ecclesiastes 3:11 (NKJV)
The 💔heart💖 behind the devotional

Not a book about staying whole.
A book about being remade.

There is a Japanese art called kintsugi — where broken pottery is mended with gold, so the cracks become the most beautiful part of the piece. This is the picture at the 💔heart of these devotions: that God does not hide what has been broken in us. He fills it with gold. 🏺✨

Across seven gentle weeks, Trixi walks 🚶🏻‍♀️ alongside you — through her own breaking and her own encounters with the God who restores — inviting you to bring your whole story, and to watch beauty rise from the very places you thought were ruined.

About this devotional

Seven weeks of beauty💖 for ashes

This is my story. This is His glory.

Beauty in the Breaking is a Christ-centred devotional written for the broken-hearted and the creative soul alike. Each day pairs Scripture and honest testimony with a gentle creative invitation — a line to write, a colour to lay down, a song to sing — so that healing doesn't just stay in your head, but finds its way into your hands. 🎨

It is not a programme to complete or a standard to reach. It is a slow, tender pilgrimage — seven weeks of letting God trace gold through the cracks, one honest day at a time.

You don’t have to arrive whole to begin. These pages are for the still-mending — held out as an invitation to watch what God can grow from broken ground. 🕊️

A glimpse of what's inside

Seven weeks of breaking and becoming

The journey unfolds gently, one week at a time — a slow pilgrimage from the undoing to the becoming. Here is the shape of the road ahead. 🕊️

  1. Week One
    The Unravelling

    When everything comes apart — and grace meets us in the very undoing.

  2. Week Two
    Sacred Rest

    Ceasing from striving to receive from the God who already sees you.

  3. Week Three
    Thresholds & Invitations

    Saying yes at the door, and taking the first trembling step of faith.

  4. Week Four
    Created to Create

    Discovering worship in the making — beauty laid down as a prayer.

  5. Week Five
    Becoming Whole Again

    Wholeness as a journey, not a finish line — mended in joy and community.

  6. Week Six
    Creating with The Creator

    Co-creating with God, and watching beauty rise from the ashes.

  7. Week Seven
    Future Calling

    Anointed and sent — carrying the gift forward with strength and stillness.
