Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you cannot understand at the time.
Oswald ChambersWe can never be like lillies in the garden unless we have spent time as bulbs in the dark, totally ignored.
Oswald ChambersThere have been prophets and students who handle the Bible like a child's box of bricks; they explain to us the design and structure and purpose; but as time goes on things do not work out in their way at all. They have mistaken the scaffolding for the structure, while all the time God is working out His purpose with a great and undeterred patience.
