“But when you fast,
matthew 6:17-18
anoint your head and wash your face,
so that you may not appear to be fasting,
except to your Father who is hidden.
And your Father who sees what is hidden will repay you.”
Ash Wednesday
Reflection
Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. Today begins a journey towards the Cross, where we encounter Jesus in all his humanity and divinity. Be intentional this Lent – will you sacrifice or incorporate something into your daily routine?
Jesus wants us to turn to him with our entire heart and soul. Lent gives us the opportunity to dedicate our lives to him anew. Let yourself be transformed by the journey Christ wants to lead you on this Lenten season. He is walking alongside you, showing you the way to himself.
