What we carry, we will leak it.

"What we carry, we will leak it."

I came across this analogy a few days ago. At first, I did not understand what it means. But the more I think about it, the more it made sense to me. What we feed our mind, will determine how we think. When we feed our minds with the world, we will begin to think, act and behave like the world. But if we fill our minds with the things of God, we will begin to think, act and behave like God.

The more we carry all our life’s junk, long enough it will begin to leak out for people to see. We may try to cover it up and tell people that we are all right, but the truth is, we are really not all right. But we cover our lives with lies and deceptions thinking that we can make it.

I like how Pastor Anand said this one time. He said that we cannot fake anointing. And that phrase has been stuck in my head ever since. Why? Because it is so true! Anointing only comes from God. Although we can pretend and put on a mask to cover it up, sooner or later, the make up will eventually fade away and our true colours will begin to show.

Similarly, when we are so filled with the presence of God, we will also leak it out. People will see that you have been spending time with God, a lot, because your actions will show it, your speech will show it, and your thoughts will show it.
