A Library Of Resources For Spiritual Growth
Satan, the great adversary, one of whose stratagems is to make both world and church forget his existence, and become ignorant of his methods, is our tempter throughout life. Think of his cruelty, that he does not spare the tender child. He regards neither the beauty and frailty of childhood, nor the sweet prayers of a mother and the earnest affection of a father, nor the loving presence of the watchers, the holy angels, nor the special tenderness and guarding eye of the heavenly Father. Satan seeks to fan the sinful spark in the child’s soul, and like a very wolf endeavors to destroy the little lambs. And think of Satan’s perseverance and persistence. He despairs not of the dying saint; and when he is not able to tempt him with thoughts and imaginations of evil, he tries to divert him from God and Christ by the thought of self-righteousness and self-complacency.
