"I cannot make myself right with God. I cannot make my life perfect. I can only be right with God if I accept the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ as an absolute gift. Jesus is not beginning to save us, He has saved us, the thing is done and it is an insult to ask Him to do it. The real business of your life as a saved soul is intercessory prayer. Wherever God puts you in circumstances, pray immediately, pray for that His atonement may be realized in others lives as it has been in yours. Pray for your friends now, pray for those with whom you come into contact now. "
"Pray on the realization that you are only perfect in Christ Jesus, not on this plea-'O Lord, I have done my best, please hear me..'"
"How long is it going to take God to free us from the morbid habit of thinking about ourselves? We must get sick to death of thinking about ourselves? We must get sick unto death of ourselves until there is no longer any surprise at anything God can tell us about ourselves. There is only one place where we are right, and that is in Christ Jesus. When we are three, then we have to pour out for all we are worth in this ministry of the interior." (of course....Oswald Chambers)
