Attitude of thanksgiving: Peter’s response “Lord it is good that we are here, let us make 3 tents” was conceived from a heart that was grateful. God has been good to us and he continues to be good to us every day. We in turn must be grateful.
But the desert is also a place of Prayer that is why the Spirit of God drove Jesus to prepare for the Great Mission ahead- which was ultimately going to end in his crucifixion, Suffering, death for our sake; that we might become the righteousness of God.
