Ashes remind us of God's condemnation of sin, as God said to Adam, "Dust you are and to dust you shall return" (Genesis 3:19).
Ashes suggest cleansing and renewal. We receive ashes in the form of the cross, the same symbol placed on our bodies with water in our baptism.
Ashes remind us of the shortness of human life, for it is said as we are buried into the ground, "We commit this body to the ground; earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.” (ELW, P. 284).
Ashes are a symbol of our need to repent, confess our sins, and return to God.

From the ELCA.    -      February 14, 2024
