Christianity Quote by Jon Bloom
““Sometimes, in your battle with unbelief, your greatest ally will wrestle you—he might even make you limp—until you’re desperate enough to say, 'I will not let you go unless you bless me.' It is a great mercy to be brought to the point where you’re desperate enough to insist on what you need the most.””
