If you think you are standing firm

you had better be careful that you do not fall.

REFLECTION…

.

We must continually implore God’s help,

since we cannot rely solely on our own strength and willpower.

.

We need God’s help to strengthen us

and to keep us on guard against temptation

and against the devil’s constant plotting and prompting

in his untiring pursuit of our souls.

QUOTE…

“Discipline yourselves; keep alert.

Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around,

looking for someone to devour.”
