If you get out of the light you become a sentimental Christian, and live only on your memories, and your testimony will have a hard metallic ring to it. Beware of trying to cover-up your present refusal to "walk in the light" by recalling your past experiences when you did "walk in the light" (1 John 1:7). Whenever that Spirit gives you a sense of restraint, call a halt and make things right, or you will go on quenching Him and grieving Him without even knowing it. Oswald Chambers
