Worship

In less than two hours we will gather for worship, 38,000 strong. We gather as sinners, desperately in need of healing, of a word of forgiveness, of our Lord's precious and life-giving Body and Blood. We gather as servants of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ, that we might be found worthy to be found in Him, always seeking the very last place. And we gather as saints, not by what we have done (or left undone), but because that is how God, through the life-giving waters of Baptism, chooses to name us and regard us and treat us and call us. And we gather as the hungry, to feast upon the Christ who is our Bread, that by his hand the world might be fed.

Oh, and I was wrong about the number. Turns out there are those around the world in the Church on earth who also Gather this morning to sing praises to our Lord Jesus. And turns out there is a heavenly multitude beyond number, whose ceaseless praise of the Most Holy Trinity is quite deafening. So join us, as we join into worship that is already in progress...
