Spiritual Arms: Five Minutes for the Battle - Luke 4:1-13

Spiritual Arms: Five Minutes for the Battle

Kick off your day with 5 minutes of faith!

Revised Standard Version (RSV) translation

New Testament:

• Luke 4:1-13

• 1 John 2:16

• Matthew 6:18

Old Testament:

• Genesis 3:1-6

Catechism of the Catholic Church:

• Paragraph 2514-2515

Takeaways:

• Lent reminds us to step back, spend time with Jesus, and remember that He suffered and died for us out of love.

• During Lent, the Church encourages prayer, fasting, and almsgiving to help us resist temptation and grow closer to God; practical ways to do this are to pray more (i.e. reading the Bible), fast from things you enjoy (i.e. favorite foods, your phone), and give to those in need.

• Do these things quietly out of love for God — not for recognition — just as the Gospel of Matthew (6:18) reminds us that God sees what we do in secret, and rewards us.
