I applaud the effect [RESURRECTION LIFE; HEALING; A MUCH CLOSER WALK WITH GOD; HOLY SPIRIT COMFORT IN GREAT TRAUMA; DIRECTION IN THE MIDST OF CONFUSION] even if I question the cause. I observe these same effects in yielded non-charismatic believers.

I don't think someone has to fit comfortably under the label Charismatic to hear God or demonstrate a lot of fruits of The Spirit. God uses whom He will. And He takes all yielded, surrendered folk as far as they will go with Him. If they have blind spots, He either enlightens them IF it's a priority of HIS or He ignores such blind spots and concentrates on other more fruitful areas in that life. IMHO.
I have usually found, though, that in AT LEAST 70+% of the time, pride is what's in the way of at least praying in tongues, not theology.
