A brief spoken reflection (YouTube monologue) by Dr. Tabatha Barber on Jesus’s 40-day fast in the wilderness. The speaker highlights that during the fast Jesus faced three temptations—hunger, weakness, and loneliness—and argues that enduring those pressures by relying on God’s strength leads to unstoppable perseverance and clarified purpose.

I like to think about Jesus's 40 day fast in the wilderness. He went off to fast and be alone with God and to really pray and get closer to him to figure out what his purpose was. And during that time he was tempted by the devil three different times. He was hungry, he was weak, he was alone. Those are the three times that you're really going to be pressured and tempted to give up and not trust yourself and the strength that comes from God. So if you can get through that, you're going to be unstoppable.
