Bwasts of the Wilderness! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!

When Jesus went into the wilderness for fourty days, it says that he was there with beasts and as well with satan. What I find interesting is the look at the beasts, or animals whatever you may wish to call, that were there with Jesus. When looking at this since the word beast is udsed it would appear that these were not nice tamed animals that jesus was with but instead mean and untamed animals that most people would be scared to be near. In a way this shows the power Jesus has, because while he was with these so called beast, nothing happened that we know of, other than the fact that Jesus was victorious over satan and these beast while he was there, as he will be again later on. Its just interesting to see that Jesus even had power over the animals while he was on this earth as he also shows he has control of the weather as well. Showing us that there is nothing Jesus can not handle.

it is amazing how he had faith in God to protect him amoung the beasts and power to keep himself safe...i wonder though did he go into the wilderness depending on his human power or his divine power? i think in order to be a more compassionate savior he was there on his human power but had a miraculous fasting period of 40 days...maybe some of that was devine.
