"Is it possible to get enough or even too much God? Is there a point where a person can be satisfied with the amount of intimacy, knowledge, and power of God he or she experiences? I don't see how there can be, because doesn't every encounter with God only cause us to thirst for him more?""I can't say exactly what will happen when you admit that you can never fully know or experience enough of the Holy Spirit yet choose to seek him regardless. I know only that when you surrender fully to the spirit, Christ will be magnified, not you (John 16:14)."
"Perhaps the core issue is really about our holding back from giving ourselves to God, rather than our getting too much of him."
"Paul wrote to the Corinthians that his words were not "wise and persuasive" but rather a "demonstration of the spirit's power"...In most churches today I hear a lot of talk and the facade of human wisdom, but I don't see much of God's presence and power."
