Extract
After fasting for forty days in the desert, the devil said to Jesus, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.” Jesus answered him, “It is written, Man does not live by bread alone.” (Luke 4: 3-4)
Thought
Temptations are daily and easy to give in to. But saying “No,” is often far more rewarding.
Change a lifetime of habits, today!
Reflection
It is said that the most boring and miserable people are those whose life revolves around themselves!
Give others your time today. Seek nothing for yourself. Move your ways a little closer to what Jesus asks.
Prayer: Love
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.
