Our Lord's conception of discipleship is not that we work for God, but that God works through us.
Oswald Chambers
God plants His saints in the most useless places. We say, 'God intends me to be here because I am so useful.' Jesus never estimated His life along the line of the greatest use. God puts His saints where they will glorify Him, and we are no judge at all of where that is.
Oswald Chambers
When someone thinks that to develop a holy life he must always be alone with God, he is no longer of any use to others.
Oswald Chambers
We are built for the valley, for the ordinary stuff we are in, and that is where we have to prove our mettle.
Oswald Chambers
Be rightly related to God, find your joy there, and out of you will flow rivers of living water.
Oswald Chambers
We have to take the first step as though there were no God. It is no use to wait for God to help us, He will not: but immediately we arise we find He is there.
Oswald Chambers
