Beloved, as we follow Jesus into the wilderness, the place of helplessness, we will learn that it is there that we grow dependent upon God.  It is God that leads us there because He desires to do a work in us that will allow us to reach our full potential in His Kingdom.  God does this work in His timing and not ours.  Temptation will come to us and as we make the right choices instead of believing the lies of the devil, we will be given strength and endurance for our journey as God ministers to us right there in our wilderness.

Know that you are loved,
