Repentance (4)
  1. Ash Wednesday's purpose is not to motivate our resolve to redouble our efforts to do better.
  2. Ash Wednesday, is meant to remind us we have a death problem. All living things made from the soil shall return to it.
  3. Ashes and dust do not need the services of spiritual EMTs; we need a Second Adam from whom we regain life itself.
  4. What would be a fitting thing to give up, especially during the season of Lent?
