And the Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. He was in the wilderness for forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels waited on him. –Mark 1:12-13
Who or what is Satan?
Free us, God, from the temptation to project our fears onto someone or something outside ourselves.Free us as well, we pray, from our desire to pretend there is only good. Amen.
