We read in Isaiah (59:19)...
We read in Isaiah (59:19), "When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him." The truth of this promise was proved to me in an experience I had early this year.
I wanted to break into two pieces a very hard square of chocolate, and in order to do so I stuck the point of a paring knife into it. I heard something crack, but the chocolate did not break, so I withdrew the knife and put the chocolate into my mouth.
Presently I became aware of a sharp substance on my tongue. Before I could remove it, it slipped down my throat, and I found it painful to swallow. I then noticed that I had broken off the knifetip, which must have remained in the chocolate, and it was obviously this that I had swallowed. During the next hour the pain increased, as did my fear.
