Celebrating the Saints, Part II

"Repeatedly, the Lord declares that He remembers His people, His saints. His remembering is not a mental recalling of something He has forgotten, but a deliberate exercise of His love, whereby He keeps & carries out His promises, fulfills His covenant & saves His people from sin & death. And as He remembers them, He reveals & gives Himself to them by speaking His Word to them & by naming them & blessing them with His own holy name." --Richard Stuckwisch, The Lutheran Witness, Oct. 2019
