Over the next forty days we journey in the Holy Spirt. Like the ancient ones we pray for the renewal that only God can bring. Psalm 103 says, “The Lord has compassion on those who fear him; for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust.” Rising from the dust we see our Salvation, Jesus, the Son of the Living God stands in the desert wilderness with us.   Into this wilderness, God sends His Son who is faithful to us ---even to death on the cross.  This great news can be cherished even as we pass through the desert wilderness. Christ Jesus fought victoriously for us, and now there is glory before us, as Christ leads us home to the promise of the Father.
