Lent is a time of self-reflection and a season of preparation, mirroring the forty days of Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness (which itself mirrored forty-day periods of trial experienced by Noah, Moses, and Elijah). On Ash Wednesday, Christians are invited to enter a period of self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. We are called to use these forty days as a time to reflect on the ways that we separate ourselves from God and one another.
