When we receive ashes on our foreheads, it helps us remember how precious our time on earth is and to be present with the people in our lives. Most importantly, the ashes remind us of the eternal life awaiting us through Jesus Christ.
Sometimes, like Peter, we want to build a dwelling or walls to fortify keeping things the way they are, but Jesus shows us that we must descend the mountain and be willing to transform and grow in our ministry and lives.
The Good News can feel like bad advice, such as Jesus' encouraging us to love our enemies and those who harm us. It doesn't get us ahead in the world, but it is an opportunity to witness the Kingdom of God in the meantime.
Jesus comes down from the mountain to be at the same level with the disciples and the gathered crowd, and he expresses his solidarity and blessings for the poor and oppressed with a warning to the rich.

We have so many people in our lives who share their wisdom with us, which is especially pertinent as we greet the Wise Men once more this Epiphany. A reminder of the expansive/inclusive good news that a Savior is born!
