But it really came home to me this morning when you brought your message to its conclusion with the statement - God will change the world through us if (whatever we do?) we do it in love - to the point of death.

I remember that after the imputation of ashes on my parishioners heads, I looked out into the congregation and saw the sign of the cross there in ashes. It made me smile because I thought to myself, "Look at all the people God has claimed as his own!"<BR/><BR/>I also enjoyed your comments on 'self-righteous parading'. In C.S.

It is amazing how deep that sense of entitlement runs. <BR/><BR/>Holy Lent to you.<BR/><BR/>Rev. JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
