Sharing... Action is the Key - Richard J Rice - January 1979

Richard J Rice

God is an energetic, dynamic Being who actually lives in His people and inspires them to good works (Philippians 2:13). Like a flowing, surging river (John 7:38-39), God's Spirit often fills our minds with deep emotional thoughts and desires - the urge to help, the ability to see a need, the wish to serve, feelings of love and interest in others. Yet, ironically, this same inspiration can create a false sense of righteousness and can deceive one into thinking he is well-pleasing in God's sight. Because these "spiritual sparks" momentarily lodge in the mind, the person who receives them feels good inside. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
