We shall find that the spheres God brings us into are not meant to teach us something but to make us something.
Oswald Chambers

If you are going to be used by God, He will take you through a number of experiences that are not meant for you personally at all. They are designed to make you useful in His hands, and to enable you to understand what takes place in the lives of others.

The one sign of discipleship is intimate connection with Him, a knowledge of Jesus Christ nothing can shake.
Oswald Chambers
Image

Oswald Chambers
Image
Sin is blatant mutiny against God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The well of your incompleteness runs deep, but make the effort to look away from yourself and to look toward Him.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The Bible talks plentifully about joy, but it nowhere talks about a 'happy Christian.' Happiness depends on what happens joy does not. Remember, Jesus Christ had joy, and He prayed 'that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.'
Oswald Chambers
Image
The call of God is to preach the gospel--namely, the reality of redemption in our Lord Jesus Christ. The one passion of Paul's life was to proclaim the gospel of God. He welcomed heartbreak, disillusionment , and tribulation for only one reason--these things kept him unmovable in his devotion to the gospel of God.

Jesus Christ founded His Kingdom on the weakest link of all-a Baby.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God regenerates us and puts us in contact with all his divine resources, but he cannot make us walk according to his will.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When the darkness of dismay comes, endure until it is over, because out of it will come that following of Jesus which is an unspeakable joy.
