Worthy is the Lamb whose death makes me His own!

The Lamb is reigning on His throne!

Devotion: Our Hymn of the Month for March is The Lamb (LSB 547). This is a wonderful hymn, especially during this Lenten season as we reflect upon our sinful condition and focus on what Jesus has done for us. Verse four describes what He did to save us:

He sighs, He dies, He takes my sin and wretchedness.

He lives, forgives, He gives me His own righteousness. 

Worthy is the Lamb whose death makes me His own!

The Lamb is reigning on His throne!

May we focus on the Lamb this Lenten season because He is the one who has taken away the sins of the world and has REDEEMED us! May God bless us during our Lenten journey.

PTL Tip of the Week: From the book Simple Habits for Effective Parenting by Randall Schroeder, there is a section about how your expectations impact your child. "When you have high expectations for your child, your child will have high expectations for himself or herself, as well. Expect your child to be respectful, expect your child to do chores, expect your child to work hard at school, expect your child to use manners, expect you child to get dressed on his or her own, expect your child to pray with you, expect you child to go to church, etc. With high frequency, your child will live up to whatever expectations you have for the child."
