Remember that we have to ask things of God that are in keeping with the God whom Jesus Christ revealed.
Oswald ChambersIf we obey God it is going to cost other people more than it costs us, and that is where the sting comes in. If we are in love with our Lord, obedience does not cost us anything, it is a delight, but it costs those who do not love Him a good deal.
Oswald ChambersOur prayers are heard, not because we are in earnest, not because we suffer, but because Jesus suffered.
Oswald ChambersThe loadstar of a saint is God Himself, not estimated usefulness. It is the work that God does through us that count, not what we do for him.
