Ash Wednesday reflections


Though I could scrub off the remnants of ashes on my forehead last night, I could not get the themes of repentance and renewal out of my mind.

Where else will I hear the truth about who I am-- a sinner in need of grace, a broken person in need of wholeness, a thirsty soul in need of living water-- ?  
And if I don't hear the truth about who I am, how can I even begin to know who God is?  Who Jesus is?  What Easter means?
