Worship Service for Feb. 21, 2024

Since the fall into sin, no part of our human nature has escaped the ravages of original sin. Not only has sin separated us from God to our spiritual detriment, but our bodies, created for perfect health, endure sickness and injury. King David announces God’s answer to this catastrophe in Psalm 41:3: “The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness You restore him to full health.” This is a beautiful promise, but what does it mean for you and your infirmities? As all the Scriptures bear witness to Jesus, the gifts contained in these words are only revealed by your Baptism into Him by whose wounds we are healed.
