In the previous 4 weeks we have been looking at a snapshot of Jesus as told in Matthew Chapter 4.
You can find the different parts to this series here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4.

Last time we looked at Jesus being our example and how He walked in our shoes in being tempted when He was on the earth. You can read Part 1 here if you missed it.

Living in a house with 5 males and only 3 females, we are bit outnumbered. At times I think or say, depending on how controlled I am in that particular...
He really does. Jesus does love you.
