Jesus –
Led by the Spirit into the wilderness for forty days and nights.
Famished, the tempter comes.
It is written. It is written. It is written. The rhythm of wrestling with the adversary…
If you are the Son of God. If you are the Son of God. The rhythm of wrestling with self-doubt…
You know these rhythms, Jesus.
Be with us in our Spirit-led Lenten wilderness as we wrestle with our adversaries and self-doubt – as we wrestle with what it means to worship and serve only the Lord our God.
Amen.
(The First Sunday in Lent is February 26.)
