| He was like us in every way but sin |
The Spirit drove Jesus out into the desert, and he remained in the desert for forty days, tempted by Satan. He was among wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him. After John had been arrested, Jesus came to Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God: "This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel."
tempted by Satan
Lord,
Temptation. The two things that have been a thorn in my side the most, have both flared up and my heart is so tender and sensitive right now.
I fell, when it came to him. I am fighting the temptation to get wrapped up in it again. I believe you sent me to that place the other day to remind him how much his anger hurts. And I believe I did the right thing reminding him, but now the temptation to go back and get back in that cycle of reading, getting emotional and responding back. Lord, pull me out. I did not think he would put it up and then when I read his next day, it looked like he was feeling that he was stabbed in the back.
He also said harsh words taught him something. He will learn. His feelings are just that HIS feelings. You did the right thing, now move on, you are on the path. Be strong and don't let him take your focus off what is important, off me and my love for you. He is on another path. Your paths will meet again but not until you are both ready, healed. You are closer than he is. Don't go back there , I know you want to. He is not good for you. He hurts you still and you haven't had contact in such a long time. Let him go his way and you go yours. Don't get pulled in and go backwards. Resist.
Right now you are tempted to go back with him and with her (J, dauaghter). You know I will bring good from both, but they are both in my hands along with your grief and sorrow. This is a hard lesson and it continues but you are strong and it will make you stronger.
Lord, help me regain my strength in both of these situations.
You know I will, but let me.
