The Wiles of the Devil


“The prayers of the Church are filled with references to the devil. The Lord’s own prayer ends with the petition: Deliver us from the evil one! The life of a person who will to be with God and to live in His Kingdom is, by definition, a life struggle against the devil and his armies of evil spirits. The Lenten season is especially the time for waging this spiritual battle.”
 
Fr Thomas Hopko in The Lenten Spring
 
If this moves you, or even if it doesn't, you should consider reading this book during the Great Lent. It will be most beneficial.
