Ashes
Ashes
Ashes
A seasonal call.
Reflecting upon Adam’s fall.
A cry for repentance
A reminder
That there is
A time for everything.
For prayer
Heartfelt penance
Fasting too, and of course giving
And a dose of determined forgiving.
A time to
Shake off rebellion’s claggy hold
Remembering
A precious anointing
Soothing, reassuring
Promising the gift of our returning
While continuing at a pace life’s journeying.
Grace drips from heaven’s love story, in Christ revealing
As an abundance of seasonal ashes are gratefully falling
Daubed upon humanity, an imprint of heavens shores calling
A whisper of hope amidst a backdrop of painful days dawning.
Cling ashes, seep into the greed, the unkind word, the wayward living
Erase the guilt of past dalliances, flow through aching wounds of regretting
Heal sins dust, sing within the prayerful melody of faith’s sacred encountering.
