Quote by Oswald Chambers

“You cannot have a moral holiday and remain moral, nor can you have a spiritual holiday and remain spiritual. God wants you to be entirely his, and this means that you have to watch to keep yourself fit. It takes a tremendous amount of time. Some of us expect to “clear the numberless ascensions”* in about two minutes.”

“Търпението не означава да стискаш зъби и да не правиш нищо. То означава да си достатъчно прозорлив, за да се довериш на крайния резултат от процеса. Какво означава търпението? То означава да гледаш бодлите и да виждаш розата, да гледаш нощта и да виждаш зората. Нетърпението означава да си толкова късоглед, че да не виждаш резултата. Който обича Бог, остава търпелив, понеже знае, че се иска време непълната луна да стане пълна.”
