I read in my devotional about D. L. Moody. Years after he began preaching, he became increasingly aware of his need for the Holy Spirit. His book, The Spirit-Filled Life, recounts this experience. "I was crying all the time that God would fill me with His Spirit. Well, one day....God revealed Himself to me, and I had such an experience of His love that I had to ask Him to stay His hand. I went to preaching again. The sermons were not different: I did not present any new truths, and yet hundreds were converted." This from a devotional Today in the Word, published by the Moody Bible Institute.
