A Prayer for Ash Wednesday
As we begin our Lenten journey, ashes are smeared on our foreheads, and we hear the words, “Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.”
Ash Wednesday
Spirit & Verse: A Prayer for Ash Wednesday
A Prayer for Ash Wednesday: We forget sometimes that ashes come from fire, That this soft black powder was once a firm green frond, Bright and vibrant before it became dry and brittle, Stiff and fibrous before a flame transformed it into dust.
