Isaiah 51:9-16 ▪ Colossians 1:9-14 ▪ ✞ Matthew 9:18-26
In today’s lessons, we hear that Jesus gives life back to a dead daughter and heals a woman slowly dying of infirmity. He does by joining his Word to his touch. Jesus’ Touch Gives You Life.” Jesus has not left us without his touch – for he touches us with the Word joined to the water of Baptism and to the bread and wine of Holy Communion. While that may seem like foolishness to the world’s wisdom, it is God’s Wisdom – for it brings us Wisdom Incarnate, Jesus.
