First Sunday in Lent

This Sunday's Gospel is on the temptations of Jesus in the desert. He must have told his friends about being tempted. Jesus spent 40 days in the desert before beginning his public ministry. Let us realize that the 40 days of Lent are also a preparation for us to deepen our faith, pray and seek to follow the Lord more closely. Each of us is on this journey so let us pray not to enter into temptation but to use this Lent to stay with Jesus and learn from Him that He is meek and humble of heart.
