We have to keep letting go, and slowly, but surely, the great full life of God will invade us, penetrating every part.

    Oswald Chambers (2010). “My Utmost for His Highest”, p.224, Discovery House
  • I must continue to follow the path I take now. If I do nothing, if I study nothing, if I cease searching, then, woe is me, I am lost. That is how I look at it — keep going, keep going come what may. But what is your final goal, you may ask.
