HE LEAKS
In the mountains of Tennessee they have a type of religion in which people get saved in the spring, grow cold in the summer, backslide in the autumn, and fall away completely in the winter; then they get saved all over in the spring revival. A story goes that the revival had gone on about ten days, and people knew it was nearing its climax. A certain man came into the meeting and sat in the back row. The next night he moved half-way toward the front. The third night he was sitting in the front row. The fourth night he broke out in prayer, “Lord, fill me!” Over to one side there was a woman who knew the man well. She cautioned the Lord, “Careful, Lord! He leaks!” Adapted from Acts, by Donald Grey Barnhouse
