Ash Wednesday




When on Ash Wednesday we hear the words, "Remember, you are dust," we are also told that we are brothers and sisters of the incarnate Lord. In these words we are told everything that we are: nothingness that is filled with eternity; death that teems with life; futility that redeems; dust that is God's life forever.  

—Karl Rahner in The Eternal Year.
