Lent Journey - 2016

DAY 10 OF 47

LENT IS FOR LISTENING DAILY PRAYER REQUEST: Lord, teach me how to listen to you. DAILY THOUGHT: FACING TEMPTATIONS When we draw aside to listen to God we may also sometimes struggle with dark thoughts and desires that don’t come from God. This happened for Jesus when he was tempted by the evil one in the desert. We can be sure that we will also struggle in this way. We need to learn to distinguish what God may be saying to us and what the evil one may be tempting us with. As we do this, we find courage and strength knowing that Christ has also been tempted and he knows exactly what we are going through. We can call out to him in our struggle and find grace to help us in our time of need. Christ Jesus empowers us to overcome temptations in the same way he did. DAILY PRACTICE: Pray your daily prayer request. Today think about the ways in which you are tempted to be unfaithful in your friendship with God. Share these temptations with Christ and listen to what he may be saying to you. Thank him for both his understanding of your temptations and for his availability to help you overcome them.
