The Temptation Is Killing Me

January 21, 2024

You and I have something in common with Jesus. Our lives are like His in one very big respect, one you would never guess. Jesus was - and we are - often tempted. It sounds almost blasphemous to say, but we have temptation in common. The temptation to give up, give in, turn away, and lose hope. The temptation to seize control, manipulate others, and manipulate God. Have you felt it? Have you fallen for it? Jesus overcame. Can you? Because the life you've always wanted, the one He wants for you, hangs in the balance. Facing temptation, this Sunday at Mendham Hills.
