All of WL's pray-reading, and all of his calling, didn't keep him from treating these scriptures in a light and superficial way at best, and from bulldozing them away at worst.
We should be wary lest our ecstatic experiences lead us away from reliance upon the Word. We may begin to trust our "feelings", our "sensual responses", more than the words of Scripture themselves. And if the mental constructs which are built upon these sensations are challenged, we may be tempted to dismiss the very Word itself.
