Ashes to Ashes and Dust to Dust
Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return.
Ash Wednesday (and Lent for that matter) always mean a time to be honest about who we are and what we are made of. A time to remember our interconnects with the planet and galaxy upon which we dwell. A time to remember that we are beloved of the Divine Presence which permeates everything.
Made from Earth we are,
Made from Water we are,
Made from Air and Fire we are,
Enlivened and Beloved by the Spirit we are.
As we move through Lent, may we find time to remember our connections, to slow down a bit and savor the awe that we too are God's Beloved.
Blessed Be
Joel
