Lent.
An offering of ashes, an offering to You.
Thought of the day? “Not everyone will readily reflect on the fact that we are ashes. But the beauty of it is that God took the dust of the ground and breathed life into us. The very source of why we exist is in God. Apart from God, we are nothing.” These words from none other than JR Jaldon sum it up a lot better than I could ever. The reason for Ash Wednesday is for our remembrance that we are a part of God, that we are His children, and that He is the source of our existence. The commencement of Lent teaches us the values of sacrifice, commitment, and what true love is all about. We do it for no one else but God, as it is a way of Him working through our lives, as well as onto the lives of others. Here’s to a blessed forty days of sacrifice, that we may take everything that we may learn through Him and make it a part of our every day lives - not just during Lent.
