We will continue our Lenten devotions this week with service beginning at 7.30pm on Wednesday night. As we hear of Judas' distress over his treacherous treatment of our Lord, we will think about the purpose of repentance and the direction in which it leads us.
On Sunday, Divine Service will begin at 11.00am. This week the Gospel tells of Jesus' healing of the man born blind and the response of the Pharisees. In their rejection of Jesus, the Pharisees reveal their spiritual blindness. As they excommunicate the healed blind man Jesus is able to reveal the purpose of restoring sight to this man - to bring him to faith and reveal His identity as the Son of Man. We may consider what it is that blinds us to the things of God; but more importantly we will be remembering the same resotration of sight is offered to us in the forgiveness of sins.
God's peace,
Pastor Matt
