SUNDAY REFLECTION WITH ST. JOSEMARIA Today, the F SUNDAY REFLECTION WITH ST. JOSEMARIA Today, the First Sunday of Lent, we contemplate Christ led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil (Mt 4:1–11). In the face of the “prince of darkness,” Jesus responds with unwavering trust in the Father—teaching us how to say no to sin and yes to God with fidelity and courage. 📖 Reflection “Jesus says ‘no’ to the devil, the prince of darkness. And immediately all is light. ‘Then the devil left him alone; and thereupon angels came and ministered to him.’ Jesus has stood up to the test. And it was a real test, because, as St. Ambrose comments: ‘He did not act as God, using his power. If he had, what use would his example have been? No. As a man he uses those aids which he shared with us.’ The devil, with twisted intention, quoted the Old Testament: God will send his angels to protect the just man wherever he goes. But Jesus refuses to tempt his Father; he restores true meaning to this passage from the Bible. And, as a reward for his fidelity, when the time comes, ministers of God the Father appear and wait upon him.” St. Josemaria Escriva Christ is Passing By, no. 63 📩 If you enjoy following @stjosemariainst, subscribe today to our newsletter for more inspirational resources!
