Your mind is under constant bombardment. This is not by accident. It is a strategic assault by the forces of evil, in the knowledge that the mind is what John Calvin called the "citadel" to the soul, the pre-eminent part of man set by his Creator to be the control hub for his entire life.Deep Discipleship, 82
