   "Sin, to one who loves God, is nothing other than an arrow from the enemy   
   in battle. The true Christian is a warrior fighting his way through the   
   regiments of the unseen enemy to his heavenly homeland. According to the   
   word of the Apostles, our homeland is in heaven; and about the warrior he   
   says: "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against   
   principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this   
   age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."   
   (Ephesians 6:12)"   
      
   St. Herman of Alaska.   
      
   "For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you   
   received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The   
   Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God."   
    Romans 8:15-16   
      
   Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
