The Pain and the Ashes
From: Theology on the Vine - March 3, 2011“We begin the season of lent with ashes on our foreheads. What is symbolized by this smudging? Perhaps the heart understands better than the head because more people go to church on Ash Wednesday than on any other day of the year, including Christmas. The queues to receive the ashes in many churches are endless.Why? Why are the ashes so popular?"

“What is the meaning of Lent? Why do we set aside forty days to voluntarily give up legitimate enjoyments so as to prepare for Easter?” (Images for Lent by Ron Rolheiser OMI)
