"Surviving the Desert"
After His baptism, Jesus went from a spiritual high to the wilderness, where He was tempted. Often, after a spiritual high, we also find ourselves in the wilderness. Life takes us from highs to lows. How do we navigate the lows? What can we learn from Jesus that will carry us through the deserts we encounter in life?
Luke 4:1-8 (ESV)
1 And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness 2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing during those days. And when they were ended, he was hungry. 3 The devil said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread." 4 And Jesus answered him, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone.'" 5 And the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time, 6 and said to him, "To you I will give all this authority and their glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will. 7 If you, then, will worship me, it will all be yours." 8 And Jesus answered him, "It is written, "'You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.'"
