We have more to gain and more to lose than the adversary does. What we have to gain and lose is our inheritance, if we are willing to fight for it - while we trust and love ourselves, one another and the universe (however we each define it). (That doesn't mean we don't get to fuel our efforts with righteous anger over harm done to us while we stay focused on getting to the other side for something much better than we currently have and have had. That righteous anger isn't blame, it is righteous anger.)
Your previous post about anxiety clarified for me the subterranean fears of annihilation that fuel only a futuristic view detached from love. This timeless image of an army fueled by love is inspiring.
Exquisite working out of the nature of the climb. When dangerous ascent is the only way forward, and when the outcome's uncertainty must be accepted and dismissed.
The challenge is a bit like that of an interior castle, to borrow and adapt St Teresa of Avila's construct.
