A Fleck of Dirt 2/12 Thursday Thoughts

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: A Fleck of Dirt 2/12 Thursday Thoughts [I posted this two years ago. I usually wait longer before reposting, but this caught my eye today.] One day my Reo car stopped right in traffic. A young lady sat with Mrs. Lake and she said, "Let me try it." She worked the accelerator and it wouldn't work. She said, "Wait a moment." I jumped out of the car and I raised the hood. She said, "I can tell you where it is." She just opened up the distributor, and she said, "One of those points has got a fleck of dirt on it." She brushed it off with her handkerchief and put it on again. The car started right off. That point of the distributor had some little dust, something under it, some little corroding some way that just broke the current and it was a delicate little thing, it didn't take much. It doesn't take much to break the connection of your spirit and His. God is a Spirit. You are a spirit. And something breaks the connection and the power no longer flows through. --John G. Lake

A Partaker of God's Very Nature 2/11 Wednesday Wisdom

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: A Partaker of God's Very Nature 2/11 Wednesday Wisdom If we say over and over again to our hearts: "I am a partaker of God's very nature. I have in me His faith nature. This makes me a child of faith. I have been begotten of the Living Word through the Holy Spirit. The real me was recreated in Christ. I have the very nature of the Father and the Father is love, so I have in me the love nature of the Father," if we meditate on this, we will no longer be "double-minded men." Repeat it over and over again. Hold it as a constant affirmation before your mind that you are what He says you are; that you are a partaker of His very nature as He has declared. And you member that "greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world." That Greater One is the Holy Spirit. --E.W. Kenyon

What Do You Have? 2/9 Monday Metitation

Not Acting, But Being 2/6 Friday Faith

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Not Acting, But Being 2/6 Friday Faith Men are afraid to say yes to God. When a young man, I sat in a little meeting one night when the Spirit was talking to my heart. I said, "If I am going to be a Christian, I cannot do this, and I cannot do that." Oh, mighty God, it almost makes my soul vomit in these days to think of the average conception a man has of Christianity. About ninety percent of so-called Christianity is all spelled with four letters, d-o-n'-t. Don't do this and don't do that... Why bless God, religion is all contained in two letters, b-e. Not performing acts, but being the thing that God purposed. -- John G. Lake
