0:00.0	Welcome to 10 minute Bible Talks.
0:05.0	Where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:11.0	I'm Tanya Wilmoth.
0:17.0	So my day had gotten a little out of control. It looked like this.
0:19.0	Wake up and do the quiet time and read the books
0:22.0	like a pastor that I follow that I really
0:24.4	admire. Read the same books definitely. Do the workout routine with the girl on
0:29.8	the peloton. Eat the high protein breakfast the nutritionist said is good to maintain

1:22.0	So I don't need to worry so much
1:24.1	about looking good in those. I started thinking about this because our church was in the
1:28.6	middle of a study on Luke and in chapter 5 of Luke the Devil takes Jesus into the desert, and the Devil tries to attempt him with things that sound really appealing, at least to us.
1:41.0	Food, because he hadn't eaten in 40 days and power and authority, but the devil wasn't
1:47.5	deceiving Jesus. Rather the devil himself was deceived. Jesus already had every single thing the devil was
1:56.7	trying to tempt him with. And then the Bible says that we have what Jesus has.
