Jesus Faces Temptation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Deuteronomy 26:1-11
\nPsalm 91:1-2, 9-16
\nRomans 10:8b-13
\nLuke 4:1-13<\/p>\n

Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil.
\n-Luke 4:1-2a<\/p>\n

You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
\nwho abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
\nwill say to the Lord, \u2018My refuge and my fortress;
\nmy God, in whom I trust.\u2019
\n-Psalm 91:1-2<\/p>\n

Reflection
\n<\/strong>Lent is a time to remember those who live in a desert not of their choosing, those who have been deserted and forgotten.
\n-Lawrence Cunningham, emeritus professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame<\/p>\n

Prayer
\n<\/strong>O Christ, in your death and resurrection, you have conquered all the forces of evil. During these days of Lent, may we be strengthened by your Spirit, so that we might serve God by helping those how suffer from the evil of hunger. Amen<\/em>.<\/p>\n
