PRAYERstrength to resist temptation;a recognition of ones person



60/146

DESERTEXPERIENCE

I very much believed that thecore moment of Jesuspublic life was the baptism inthe Jordan, when Jesusheard the affirmation, Youare my beloved on whom my

favor rests. That is the coreexperience of Jesus. He isreminded in a deep, deepway of who he is. The

temptations in the desert aretemptations to move himaway from that spiritualidentity.



61/146

DESERTEXPERIENCE

He was tempted to believe

he was someone else: Youare the one who can turnstone into bread. You are theone who can jump from thetemple. You are the one whocan make others bow to yourpower. Jesus said, No, no,no. I am the Beloved fromGod. I think his whole life is

continually claiming thatidentity in the midst ofeverything.



62/146

DESERTEXPERIENCE

There are times in which he ispraised, times when he isdespised or rejected, but hekeeps saying, Others willleave me alone, but my

Father will not leave mealone. I am the beloved Sonof God. I am the hope foundin that identity.

- Henri Nouwen(Jesus: A Gospel)

82/146

KINGDOM OF GODThe Kingdom of God is both a present and afuture reality. We may imagine it to be a place(an actual kingdom) that we can visit anytime orsimply heaven that we aspire for when we die.However, it is more than that. Jesus teaches usa different Kingdom. It is a reality wherein God

is king and His will is done on earth as it is inheaven. It is a reality that he asks those whobelieve to build in the here and now.

KINGDOM OF GODFor Jesus, the Kingdom was the work ofGod. And everything that Jesus said or did

was evidence that the Kingdom was beginningto break into the world. His acts of healing andcompassion, his words of wisdom, were alldirected toward creating the kind of life thatwould characterize the Kingdom over which

Yahweh himself would be master.- Donald Senior, C.P.from Jesus: A Gospel Portrait)


The Kingdom is the concern ofeveryone: individuals society and


92/146

everyone: individuals, society, andthe world. Working for thekingdom means acknowledgingand promoting Gods activity,which is present in human historyand transforms it. Building thekingdom means working for

liberation from evil in all its forms.In a word, the kingdom of God isthe manifestation and therealization of Gods plan ofsalvation in all its fullness.
