Into the Wilderness

Jesus begins His ministry not with a triumph, but with a test—a journey into the wilderness where He must trust in God alone. Like Jesus, we are often led into places of uncertainty, where the comforts of life are stripped away and we are left with only faith to sustain us. Lent begins by reminding us that even in the wilderness, God is present, providing strength, guidance, and the assurance that we do not walk alone.
