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.
