Lenten Devotions from Lutheran Hour Ministries: Behold Your King! In love, God sent His Son to redeem the world. In hatred, He was rejected. In Behold Your King!, we see the Savior stripped of His dignity, led away, and crucified on our behalf. No one could imagine this Man, this condemned and forsaken Man, was God in the flesh sent to liberate us from our sin by His death and resurrection. That the Son of God joined us in our frail state of humanity is testament to Godโs overwhelming love and concern for the world. And not only this, Jesus endured scorn and derision from His creation, His earthly subjects. And yet, as King, as Lord of all, He did the unthinkable: He laid down His life for the sins of the world. Lenten devotions are now available in the Narthex, and by daily email at lhm.org.
You can protect mothers and children by joining Forty Days for Life! The vigil location will be at the public sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood, 609 Okanogan St, in Wenatchee, from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm February 18-March 29. More information at www.40daysforlife.com/wenatchee.

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2
