No enthusiasm will ever stand the strain that Jesus Christ will put upon His worker, only one thing will, and that is a personal relationship to Himself which has gone through the mill of His spring-cleaning until there is only one purpose left--I am here for God to send me where He will.
Oswald ChambersTo identify with the death of Jesus Christ means that we must die to everything that was never a part of Him.
Oswald ChambersGod makes us as broken bread and poured-out wine to please Him. Beware of competing calls once the call of God grips you.
Oswald ChambersWherever there is any element of pride or of conceit, Jesus cannot expound a thing. He will take us through the disappointment of a wounded pride of intellect, through disappointment of heart. He will reveal inordinate affections-thin gs over which we never thought He would have to get us alone.
Oswald Chambers
