Oswald Chambers
“Character in a saint means the disposition of Jesus Christ persistently manifested.”
“We look upon the enemy of our souls as a conquered foe, so he is, but only to God, not to us.”
“The dearest friend on earth is a mere shadow compared to Jesus Christ.”
“When a man is at his wits' end it is not a cowardly thing to pray, it is the only way he can get in touch with Reality.”
“When a man gets to despair he knows that all his thinking will never get him out. He will only get out by the sheer creative effort of God. Consequently he is in the right attitude to receive from God that which he cannot gain for himself.”
“We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.”
