Surviving the Wilderness

Reflection:

As we take our first steps into the season of Lent, we find ourselves whooshed by the Spirit out into the wilderness with Jesus - where we - like He - face the dangers of temptations.  While out there though, we like He also learn to depend on the strength the Spirit gives us as well as the kindness of angels who come to help us.

What does your wilderness look like?  What temptations do you face?  Who are the angels by your side?  How does the Holy Spirit help you to survive?

Think about it - and let's give thanks and praise together for Jesus' presence with us in the wilderness as well as His calling us out to follow Him, to repent and believe in the good news!
