Leaky with the holy faucet running?

I thought I'd share a few good excerpts from my reading on the Holy Spirit...

D.L. Moody, when asked if he was filled with the Spirit said, "Yes, but I leak."

"Well, what of that? what if you are a poor, cracked vessel, letting out the blessing which you receive ? ... and supposing that I turn the tap, don't you think that if there is a bountiful supply behind, it will keep the vessel full ? But the glass may leak.  Yes, but the fountain will keep it full.  Be not discouraged; these wonderful blessings are ours, not because we are worthy but because Christ loves us.  Christ loves us!  We love also...O Jesus!  Partakers of thy endless life, let us know what it is to reproduce that beautiful life over again for Thy glory.  Spirit of God, strengthen us with might in the inner man.  AMEN."  ~Henry Varley
