Carême 4: Battle Cry

Resist temptation!

     (I will help you.)

C'est quoi la tentation?

     (I will save you.)

Penser à faire ce qui n'appartient pas à Dieu.

     (Be holy, for I am holy.)

     -----And you will be a tree flourishing beside running water.

             (Grace reigns forevermore. My gift to you.)

*Translation of French: What is temptation? Thinking of doing things that do not not belong to God.
