Ash Wednesday kicks off the sacred journey of 40 days of Lent. Ash in the sign of cross that we receive on our forehead during Ash Wednesday service is to not so gently remind our overly inflated ego that we are finite: “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. From dust you have come, to dust you shall return.” Lent is a time of “Returning to the Lord” from our wayward living through “metanoia” (Greek word for “the re-directing of my thought,” “conversion” or “transformation”) which is a changing of heart and mind that leads to change in our consciousness and behavior. Lent is a necessary journey that each of us has to embark if you want to experience Resurrection. Cross is prerequisite to Resurrection.

“Anyone who wants to be a follower of mine has to put aside self,
shoulder their cross, and follow me. Whoever holds onto their life will lose it.
But whoever let go of their life for my sake and the Gospel will save it.”
~ Mark 8:34-35
