March 20 – Third Sunday in Lent

The Divine Service for the Third Sunday in Lent (March 20, 2022)

“Bearing Lenten Fruit” – Luke 13:1-9

What do you think of God when bad things happen? Is it judgment? Is it God getting even with you? Those are natural questions flowing from our sinful nature. But they are the wrong questions. When bad things happen, it is a reminder of sin in my own life and throughout the world. So, the right question is: Am I repentant? Repentance is the fruit of faith that is cultivated in our hearts, especially during this season of Lent. Then, the forgiven heart seeks out the other fruits of faith that God desires. Fruit that we see in Jesus and His cross.
