"Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil."
~ Matthew 4:1
Our first Sunday in Lent takes us into the wilderness with Jesus and Satan.
Of course this teaches us some essential things about Jesus:
He was tested and tried,
and yet overcame.
But in learning about Jesus' victory we'll learn a few things our our own temptations,
and how to have victory in Jesus.
Lent.
A season to repent, fast and serve.
It's not for everyone.
But it should be.
We can all benefit from a season of self-examination, self-sacrifice and selflessly serving others.
If you are willing join us this Lenten season.
Pick up your cross.
Follow Jesus.
And experience the rescue we all require.
