Phillips Brooks Quote
blog post by Mary Katherine May

      Great is the power, great is the courage of the sinner, when through the thickness of the walls he feels that beating life of God, when he knows that he is not working alone, when he is sure that God is wanting him just as truly, far more truly, than he wants God.  

       He bears himself to a nobler struggle with his enemy and a more determined effort to break down the resistance that stands between him and the higher life.
