The days of the traveling doctor that came to your house may be gone, but pastors are still visiting people every day at home, the hospital, in jail and wherever you might need spiritual care.

O God, the Creator and Savior of the world, who made Yourself known in the work of man’s redemption as the mystery of the ever adorable Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Three in One and One in Three, we humbly ask You, reveal in us the full power of this faith, into which we have been planted by Baptism, that, being born of water and of the Spirit, we may by a life of holiness be formed into Your image here and rise to Your blissful presence hereafter, there to join, with the song of the seraphim, in praising You, now and forever. Amen. (The Lutheran Liturgy, companion altar book for The Lutheran Hymnal, p. 134)

On Memorial Day, we remember those who showed the greatest love by laying down their lives for others (John 15:13). We honor all who died while serving in our Nation’s military, both in times of war and peace. Their lives were precious gifts from God, and their service made a meaningful difference in the lives of those they loved and those who followed in their footsteps.

We also remember the families who live each day with an empty place at their dinner table; their hearts filled with memories of their beloved Warrior. The cost of freedom is something you understand in a way others cannot. You remain in our prayers, that our loving God would grant you the peace and understanding that comes only from him.

When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.

[Jesus said:] “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, He will bear witness about Me. And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.”

On Christ’s Ascension I now build
The hope of mine ascension;
This hope alone has ever stilled
All doubt and apprehension;
For where the Head is, there full well
I know His members are to dwell
When Christ shall come and call them (ELH 392 v. 1).

A hymn of glory let us sing!
New songs throughout the world shall ring;
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ, by a road before untrod,
Ascendeth to the throne of God.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! ( #389 v. 1).

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.” Jesus knows that you can’t go to God the Father on your own. He is a righteous judge. Jesus tells you that it isn’t because of anything that you can do to talk to God the Father. You needed a go-between. “For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” (1 Timothy 2:5). You can ask for anything in Jesus’ name because He is your go-between. He stepped in front of God’s vision with His sacrifice on the cross for your sins. Your communication is restored with your heavenly Father because He comes to you through the work of Christ.
