“My child, please remember, you are but dust and to dust you shall return. Go in peace.” These were the words whispered over me by a Catholic priest at my first AshWednesday service. What perspective for my hurt ego, my broken heart, my disappointments and setbacks…they’re all but dust. And so am I. What peace flooded over me! What a burden lifted. What relief to know that I am but dust and don’t have to have it all together. What joy to be dust and still wholly loved and accepted by God. This is going to be my best #Lent yet!
