Some of you know something of that which has been called "the dark night of the soul." Some of you have spiritual desire and deep longing for victory but it seems to you that your efforts to go on with God have only brought you more bumps and more testings and more discouragement. You are tempted to ask, "How long can this go on?"...
Yes, there is a dark night of the soul. There are few Christians willing to go into this dark night and that is why there are so few who enter into the light. It is impossible for them ever to know the morning because they will not endure the night. I Talk Back to the Devil, 80-81.
"Lord, You know the dark night that I endured for a number of years— and I know I'm not alone. I pray for any who are suffering today and struggling. Bring Your deep-seated peace and the assurance that the morning is coming. Thank You that Your grace is sufficient. Amen."
