“Politics, election returns, Associated Press dispatches, questions of reform and many other matters can and will, if we are not careful, become switch-lines to take the Divine electricity out of our souls.”
– Beverly Carradine, Heart Talks (Cincinnati: God’s Bible School and College, n.d.), 125.
Dad, this quote is excellent and so true!!!!!!! May we all always remember this and not loose the fire in our souls due to undue occupation to what is going on around us. We are pilgrims and sojourners here in this sinful earth. All creation groans to be liberated from the sin that has corrupted creation. And if we aren’t careful we will get too caught up in things that are not the best, or purest, or loveliest, or most just. Our Lord warned us that “because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” That “iniquity” could just be the daily news, current events, etc. I sent this quote to several friends giving you credit for finding it. Have a great Lord’s Day tomorrow. Phillip
