Trials and Temptation
Temptation is very different than life’s trials, trials also test us but for a very different purpose. Trials seek to reveal our moral qualities or character; temptation however seeks to corrupt our character and break our moral compass. Trials reveal the measure of a person, while temptations seek to corrupt and destroy the good within us. One aims to make us better causing us to be more conscious of our true moral self; but the other seeks to awaken and then blind us to our own evil within. God tries; Satan tempts.

Christ’s victory over the grave gives us assurance of our own victory through his power demonstrated so humbly all those years ago.

Lost and Found, lessons with Jesus
Have you ever noticed that when we read a novel or watch a movie we tend to identify with a person, group of people, or situation in it. It seems to be a natural human characteristic to find personal connections with a story. No doubt that is why Jesus often used the parables to teach the crowds.
