Liturgy: 1st Sunday of Lent (YrC) – ‘Trust in God’
We begin the 40 days of Lent with Luke’s account of Jesus’ 40 day fast in the wilderness and his temptation by the devil. When we fast and try to turn away from sin we are often tempted to go back into our old ways and must pray to the Lord to give us the grace to resist. We are fortunate because as Paul tells us, ‘The word that is the faith we proclaim, is very near to you, it is on your lips and in your heart.’ By confessing Jesus as Lord and believing in his resurrection we will be saved.
