Welcome to our Worship for the Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany, Sunday February 7, 2021.
ALL ARE WELCOME HERE!
This week’s readings are: Isaiah 40:21-31; Psalm 147:1-11, 20c; 1 Corinthians 9:16-23; Mark 1:29-39
Even though the time of Epiphany, the time of divine revelation to the world, is not far behind us, our biblical passages for today remind us of another dimension of life and of the biblical narrative – divine concealment. Some experiences, even to the faithful, are difficult to understand. In the context of wonder at God’s majesty, Isaiah 40 marvels that God’s way is hidden, and the psalmist praises the God who made all things and cares for the nameless and forgotten of the earth. Paul engages the ancient Corinthians in a discussion of servitude and freedom that is very difficult to follow, and Mark punctuates his story of Jesus’ ministry with one of many statements about the secrecy of Jesus and the confusion of his disciples.
