Solitude with God repairs the damage done by the fret and noise and clamour of the world.
Oswald Chambers

Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have, Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship.
Oswald Chambers

The love of God is not created- it is His nature.
Oswald Chambers

We should always choose our books as God chooses our friends, just a bit beyond us, so that we have to do our level best to keep up with them.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Wherever 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
Image
The nature of faith is that it must be tried.
Oswald Chambers
Image
A good book, in the language of the book-sellers, is a salable one in that of the curious, a scarce one in that of men of sense, a useful and instructive one.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The agony of a man's affliction is often necessary to put him into the right mood to face the fundamental things of life. The Psalmist says: Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now have I kept Thy Word.

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
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
Image
When we see Him, we will wonder that we ever could have disobeyed Him.
