Show Notes:
Hebrews 12:1-2 (https://biblehub.com/esv/hebrews/12.htm): Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 (http://biblehub.com/hebrews/12-2.htm)looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
Ashes symbolize:
Mourning - Esther 4:3 (https://biblehub.com/esv/esther/4.htm) - And in every province, wherever the king’s command and his decree reached, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting and weeping and lamenting, and many of them lay in sackcloth and ashes.
Judgement - Lamentations 3:16 (https://biblehub.com/esv/lamentations/3.htm) - He has made my teeth grind on gravel, and made me cower in ashes;
Repentance - Job 42:6 (https://biblehub.com/esv/job/42.htm) therefore I despise myself, and repent (https://biblehub.com/esv/job/42.htm#footnotes)in dust and ashes.
Death - Genesis 3:14-19 (https://biblehub.com/erv/genesis/3.htm)
Benediction: 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 (https://biblehub.com/esv/1_thessalonians/5.htm) - Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 (http://biblehub.com/1_thessalonians/5-24.htm)He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.
