Remember, O man, that you are dust...

and to dust you shall return.

Grant to your faithful, Lord, a spirit generous enough to begin these solemn fasts with proper fervor and to pursue them with steadfast devotion. This we ask of you through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son. ~ from Catholic Culture
