Ash Wednesday

Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the season of Lent, 40 days before Easter and a time to take sober reflection of sin and self...so I am sitting here at my desk with ashes marking a cross on my forehead. People all over the world have gone and had this mark placed on them today. It isn't been in my personal "religious" background, but it is becoming so. If you want to read a bit more about it, as I did, here is one link for more information:

So very thankful for Jesus and His mercy that endures forever!
