If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.\u2019\u2019 (ESV)<\/small><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nAnd Jesus answered them, \u2018\u2018The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Palm Sunday, after Jesus dismounted from the donkey, several Greeks who were in Jerusalem for the Passover feast asked the disciple, Philip, \u2018\u2018Sir, we wish to see Jesus.\u2019\u2019 Three hundred years later the mother of Emperor Constantine walked through the Holy Land looking for evidence and places and relics of the events recorded in the Bible. Today we look for peace in this troubled and violent world, the comfort of knowing God\u2019s love, grace, and mercy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The greatest truths are also the simplest. It takes moments to learn but a lifetime to understand. \u2018\u2018Jesus loves me, He who died, heaven\u2019s gates to open wide.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Where do we find Jesus? He promises to be with us until the end of the age. He is present when we gather at God\u2019s invitation to hear His Word and to receive the forgiveness of our sins through the sacraments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please join us at Trinity Lutheran Church each Sunday at 9:00 a.m. as we learn more of our Savior\u2019s love, of His sacrificial death, and His victory over the grave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
May our Lord grant us faith to see Him where He promises to be found. Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
