The devil is
real. We fail to recognize the reality
of his existence and power and therefore we often fall prey to his many
tricks. Satan’s goal is to lead us away
from God and to separate us from Him for all eternity…Satan wants us to
despair, to give up, to separate us from God and lead us to hopelessness. We cannot fight this spiritual battle on our
own. We fail because we rely on our own
resources. We fail to grasp that a
missile is coming in from the enemy. We
try on our own to defeat Satan. We
cannot succeed on our own.
(Father George P. Schommer, O.P.)
