Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of a time of preparation for the great and glorious day of the Resurrection. I gave a brief meditation at our service tonight, in which I suggested that we Christian folks observe Ash Wednesday and Lent to remind us that we live in a Good Friday world. I presumed to say that we remind ourselves of this fact as a way of cluing us in that this world needs as much Easter as it can get and we are the ones who are supposed to bring it.
May it be so. And may you, O Tolerant Reader, find the season of Lent a blessing. Should that not be your way of thinking, substitute whatever good wishes suit you better.
