“Firm in your faith, resist him (the devil), well aware that throughout the world sufferings of this kind are imposed upon your brotherhood.” 1 Peter 5:9
If we are not careful, personal suffering can make us become nearsighted. Think about the effect of physical pain. I experienced second and third degree burns over the lower half of my right leg a year and a half ago. The pain was some of the most intense I have ever felt.
