Ash Wednesday

Led an Ash Wednesday service for the first time today.  It was a bit odd for some of us baptists, but after you got past all the unfamiliarity, it was a good time.  Unfortunately, there has been a lot of stuff reminding me of my "dark side" today.  All the things that need to grow and change in and around me.  This service was a great reminder that:
Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return,
but the steadfast love of the Lord endures forever.

I am just dust, but He loves this dust - AMEN!  And that gives me hope amidst all my stupid stuff today.

Check out Donald Millers blog today.  He has a guest writer talking about falling.  It is good.   McLaren has a bunch of stuff added on his blog today and he is coming to Norfolk next week!

God be with you in the Journey!
