I don't know much. I'm not usually right, please know that. For some reason these thoughts, things, and ideas have been on my mind and heart throughout the years. I am silly, sinful, and make many mistakes every day. God's grace and love for me is my only Hope. His grace gives me strength to forgive myself each day, start over again, and fills me with the desire to show others how much He loves, forgives, and delights in each and every one of us. His children.

what is Ash Wednesday?
"For Christians ashes are a symbol of being sorry for the things they've done wrong that they want to get rid of forever. Ashes are a reminder that we all come from ashes, and to ashes we all will return. Using ashes to mark the cross on the forehead symbolizes that through Christ's death and resurrection, all believers can be free from sin. Ashes are a reminder that God is gracious and merciful to those who call on Him with repentant hearts."
