This Day's Thought

The Holy Spirit descended upon me in a manner that seemed to go through me, body and soul. I could feel the impression like a wave of electricity going through and through me. Indeed, it seemed to come in waves and waves of liquid love…like the very breath of God…it seemed to fan me like immense wings.

Charles Grandison Finney

This Day's Reprise

I walked a mile with Pleasure,
She chattered all the way;
But left me none the wiser,
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow,
Not a word, said she;
But oh the things I learned
When Sorrow walked with me.
