Patience has the meaning of testing-a thing drawn out and tested, drawn out to the last strand in a strain without breaking, and ending in sheer joy. The strain on a violin string when stretched to the uttermost gives it its strength; and the stronger the strain, the finer is the sound of our life for God, and He never strains more than we are able to bear.
Oswald ChambersIt is perilously possible to make our conceptions of God like molten lead poured into a specially designed mould, and when it is cold and hard we fling it at the heads of the religious people who don't agree with us.
Oswald ChambersNo matter who or what we are, God restores us to right standing with Himself only by means of the death of Jesus Christ.
Oswald ChambersAnd it is not repentance that saves me โ repentance is only the sign that I realize what God has done through Christ Jesus.
