On Ash Wednesday we put ashes on our head, but it does not end there…
Jesus tells us to wash our face and anoint our head and instead we put ashes on our head. What gives? Well Jesus specifically criticizes the hypocrisy and the ostentatiousness of it. We just start lent with ashes, but we pray and hope it doesn’t end there. God does not want us to just rend our garments and put ashes on our heads, He wants us to live it out in our life. We have a chance this lent to tear down the gods of the belly, money, pleasure, and security and place our love in God alone by fasting prayer and almsgiving. 2/14/18
