God With Us in the Wilderness, February 21 Worship

The First Sunday in Lent comes to us with stories of temptation and test.  Abraham had been bounced around his whole life and now he had his greatest test. In Abraham’s story we discover how God is present even in the troubles of life and how His good and gracious will carries us through those trials.  Jesus' own temptation shows us that God can battle and defeat foes that we are helpless against. God’s great love and infinite compassion is with us in the wilderness.
