My Favorite Lake Quote 5/4 Wednesday Wisdom

I've posted this a few years ago.  It remains one of my all-time favorite quotes.  I used it in church once for my elder-of-the-day discourse:

Have you been in Canada?  Do you know when I went to Canada for the first time there was one thing that struck me peculiarly?  The signs would read, "John Brown, Ltd." ... I was holding meetings in the old St. Andrews Church in Sidney.  I asked them one night why they did not put their national symbol on their churches.  They wondered what I meant.  I said, "Every other business house is 'Ltd' (Limited)."  Why don't you put it over the church?"
An old Scotchman said, "We don't have to.  Everybody knows it." 
Limited?  Sure it is limited.  Limit God, limit ourselves, limit His grace, limit the Word.  Sure our God is a little bit of a God.  Most of us could carry Him in our vest pocket and it wouldn't bulge the pocket -- our God with the "Ltd." on Him.
Brother, sister, that challenge comes to us today to let God loose.

-- John G. Lake

Tomorrow's post will be the last for a few days, as I will be on vacation.
