Saturday prior to Lent 4

 

Romans 8:29; 2 Peter 1:4; Ephesians 4:24; 2 Corinthians 3:18Sunday’s Hymn of the Day is On My Heart Imprint Your Image (LSB #422).  The knowledge of God is not an abstract concept but is couched in love and mixed with purpose. God not only knew us before we had any knowledge of Him, but He also knew us in the sense of choosing us by His grace before the foundation of the world. The reason God foreknew, predestined and conformed believers to Christ’s likeness is that the Son might hold the position of highest honor in the great family of God.

Collect for Saturday of the week of Lent 3: Lord, make this Lenten observance of the suffering, death, and resurrection of Christ bring us to the full joy of Easter.  We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen [2]18 March 2023
