Do I watch Jesus suffer the same way I watch sport

Do I watch Jesus suffer the same way I watch sports or an engaging show – as a spectator? Paul saw no separation between himself and Jesus: “I have been crucified with Christ” (Gal. 2:20). This Lent I ask myself, How can I more identify my very being with Christ? Read more of today's #MeyerMinute from President Emeritus Dr. Dale A. Meyer on Facebook @concordiasem

“Make me to know your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long” (Psalm 25: 4-5 ESV).

When Perseverance landed, it sent back a photo. NASA tweeted the photo as if Perseverance had written it. “Hello, world. My first look at my forever home.” Is life in a hostile world, fated to die, your forever home? “And he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan.” You were baptized into the One who faced and overcame the forces of evil, first in the wilderness, and climactically at the cross and by His resurrection. Here-and-now, Jesus is our forever home. “Baptism promises and brings victory over death and the devil” (Martin Luther, “Large Catechism”). Water, Word, Perseverance.
