‘But do you remember Gandalf’s words: Even Gollum may have something yet to do? But for him, Sam, I could not have destroyed the Ring.
How interesting... but for Gollum and his continued struggle with Frodo, Frodo would have never completed his task by his own will. He was driven to completion through ongoing struggle. Is this not a picture of the Chrisgian struggle? Who would I be without my struggle with sin?
