God, however, can see right through our facades. The very things we think we desire—love, money, food, sleep—will never make us happy. Once acquiring these things, we may be happy for a while.

However, we will always fall back into desire. It is only our happiness that seems to be limited. Even though God must lower himself and be made human to pay the hefty price for every dumb thing, every wrong thing, every sinful thing that we have ever done, he will always do what is right and best for us. Nothing can distract him from this mission or change his mind—not even Peter. Problems in this world are far greater than politics or our own desires.

We are little less than a speck in a constantly expanding universe—and a sin-drenched and subjective speck at that. Our fallen nature, and our creatureliness, prohibits us from understanding the world as it actually is. We could never understand how broken the world is or what is truly needed to fix us—only God knows this.

And God, as the Christ, tells us that for the whole of creation—not only ourselves—to be set right, we must join him in bearing the one cross—his cross. If we do not question our own doctors about prescriptions to our colds, why do we question our Lord and creator about the prescription to our brokenness?

What is wrong with us goes to the core of our very being. We need a new heart, and this heart can only be given through baptism. Only God knows whether we will only die to our desires, or whether we will physically lay down our lives in echo of his death. However, we all know that God will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead—this is the reality which God cannot—and will not—be distracted or bribed away from.

If we rebuke God and tell him what is right for us, like Peter did, then we will pay the price, eternal torment in hell, upon his return. Now is the time of mercy; it is the time when we must choose whether or not we will follow Jesus in his suffering. However, this time will not last forever. The one who has sought only to preserve his life will be condemned. Following him will cost us everything—respect, wealth, health, life—but as Christ says, anyone who gives up something will receive a hundred-fold return through his church —both now and on through eternity.

At the middle of any temptation you encounter are your desires, your concerns, your lusts, your passions, and your will. The temptations you experience are agreeing with what already resides inside of you. This is how temptation works in your life.

Have you ever noticed that the things that tempt you are things you are already drawn or attracted to? This is why what you are tempted with may have no draw or concern for me whatsoever. The reverse of this is also true, my temptations may not faze you one bit. Satan identifies the desires that lie within you and uses those to bring temptations in front of you.

Remember Jesus said to Peter, get behind me Satan, you are a stumbling block to me. There is the solution. One of the great keys to overcoming temptation is to remove it from in front of you. Temptation that you steadily keep in front of you will be temptation that you eventually succumb to. This has been happening since the garden. Think of Adam and Eve and the tree.

Think of Samson and Delilah. Remember David and Bathsheba. You cannot keep temptation ever in front of you and think you will stand up to it. That will not happen. Remember 1 Corinthians :. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

Here is a simple piece of advice regarding temptation. Look for the blinds or look for the door. We know that human concerns were a big part of the meaning and context of Matthew
