Oswald Chambers More Quotes by Oswald Chambers More Quotes From Oswald Chambers We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties. Oswald Chambers christian-inspirationaleyeprayer Perseverance is more than endurance. It is endurance combined with absolute assurance and certainty that what we are looking for is going to happen. Oswald Chambers enduranceperseveranceencouragement The Christian who is truly intimate with Jesus will never draw attention to himself but will only show the evidence of a life where Jesus is completely in control. This is the outcome of allowing Jesus to satisfy every area of life to its depth. The picture resulting from such a life is that of the strong, calm balance that our Lord gives to those who are intimate with Him.
