Elizabeth Elliot wrote, “Seldom do we consider the nature of our opponent, and that is to his advantage. When we do not recognize him for who he is, we have an inkling as to why prayer is never easy. It’s the weapon that the unseen powers dread the most, and if he can get us to

You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life and death. It is easy to say you believe a rope to be strong as long as you are merely using it to cord a box. But suppose you had to hang by that rope over a precipice.
