Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
"An Unchanging Faith for Changing Lives" describes the message of God for us in the turmoil of the 21st Century. This faith is taught at St. John's Lutheran Church of Taylor, Michigan, and other congregations of the Lutheran church-Missouri Synod. Rev. Dr. Richard Zeile, Pastor at St. John's, applies the Word of God to our everyday experiences. God's LAW always accuses, but God's GOSPEL shows where grace can be found, through Jesus Christ who died for our sin, but rose that we may have eternal life.
Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
Psalm 39 - Make to Know My End
The end of the Church Year deals with the Last Things- Death, Judgment, Christ's return, and Eternal Life. Psalm 39 asks what our purpose is in this passing life. We confuse specific and general directions for our lives and thus mistake our purpose. Our purpose is love and love is meeting the needs of others, and their greatest need is for God. When we reflect the love of God in our service to others, we are finding our own purpose.
