Some one asked a minister if he had ever received a second blessing since he was converted. “What do you mean?” was the reply. “I have received ten thousand since the first.” A great many think because they have been holy once, they are going to be holy for all time after.
But O, my friends, we are leaky vessels, and have to be kept right under the fountain all the time in order to be kept full. If we are going to be used by God, we must be very humble. Humility and holiness go together. A man that lives close to God will be the humblest of men. Let us keep near Him.—MOODY.
