HEPHATHA LUTHERAN CHURCH
1720 W Locust St.
DAILY DEVOTIONS
Monday, February 2
Pastor Mary Martha reminding you of God’s love for you this day. February 2 marks 40 days since the birth of Jesus, celebrated in the church on December 25th. On the 40th day of life for a Jewish child in the time of Jesus, the child would be presented in the temple by his parents. 2,000 years ago, Mary and Joseph presented Jesus in the Temple in accordance with Jewish law and faith. Jesus is met by people in the Temple, most notably Anna and Simeon. Jesus is acknowledged, at just 40 days of life, as “the light of the world.” Let us think today about how we can “present” a child to God by bringing a child into the church home we share, by bringing that child to be baptized and to receive holy communion, … by having that child share with us the light of Christ.
God bless the children.
Tuesday, February 3rd
Pastor Mary Martha encouraging you to take a moment of silence with God today. And every day.
In the silence, ask the Holy Spirit to help us see the blessing of God with us.
In the silence, ask the Holy Spirit to help us see the blessing of God with us.
