The Lenten Adventure Forum

Well, if Jesus was able to resist this evil one, one who knows well enough how our physical bodies can rule us, then I certainly would be willing to entertain the idea he is the son of God, some God. I know that in my own life, I find it hard to resist any whim or desire that comes upon me. Sometimes, I have regretted acting on my whims, something inside me has felt so bad for some of those choices. I am uncomfortable and missing the comforts of home. I cannot imagine going into the desert alone, without food or water and then being attacked. This fact alone makes me think this Jesus is something special, unique. Whether his purpose is to save us, save me, from my sins, I do not know but the sheer courage of his actions draws my respect. A few days ago, I would have scoffed and called him a fool for doing this but the message from the rock, these odd messages that we still know not from whence they come, makes me want to believe.

Can it be that this average looking man could be the Son of God, the most powerful God, the only God? I want to believe. This message of hope relieves some of the emptiness I have learned over these past few days has always been with me, deep inside, covered over with all of my futile attempts to fulfill.

Is there no way we can find out more of the whereabouts and condition of Jesus? I am so very concerned for him. Imagine me, concerned for a stranger, a Jew.
