God can bring beauty from ashes
__________________________________
Why ashes on Ash Wednesday?
Ash Wednesday begins a special season for
Christians when we focus on how this life is
passing and that we should turn away from sin
and turn toward God. The ashes remind us of
our mortality, since it is to dirt that our bodies
shall return. In the Old Testament ashes were
used to express sorrow for sin. Ashes not only
signify death but victory over death. The
ashes that our bodies will become after we die
will be re-formed into a resurrected body at
the end of time when Christ comes in glory.
