in The Gospel Messenger (Nov. 1882)
HE MAY, INDEED, LET THE ENEMY get fast hold of us for
a time, as he did of David, Peter, and others of old time,—
especially when we grow into self importance and esteem,—but
this has only a good effect upon us, that we may realize our own
weakness and the strength of our formidable enemy, when of
dire necessity we call pitifully upon the Lord, whose ears are
ever open to the cries of his saints. |
