Shocking Billy Graham

No disrespect intended with this post because of the funny picture, this is a genuinely shocking question:

Dr. Billy Graham once made a critical analysis of the Church systems in general and came to the conclusion that "The Holy Spirit could leave the church and it would go right on doing 90% of what it was doing; and NOT KNOW that the Holy Spirit had left."

So, it begs the question:

If the Holy Spirit was to leave your church, how much activity would just carry on?

And lastly, some interesting quotes from the Dalai Lama

The Dalai Lama was once asked what surprised him the most in life and his response was man, “because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then he dies having never really lived."

Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
