God’s end is to enable me to see that He can walk on the chaos of my life just now.

From Mark 6:49-50:  “But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and cried out,  for they all saw Him and were terrified. But immediately He spoke to them and said, ‘Take heart, it is I; do not be afraid.'”

Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) was a Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher.  Following his death from an illness while in Egypt during World War I, his wife took on the task of transcribing the detailed notes she had written from his lectures and sermons.  Gertrude Hobbs Chambers’ efforts resulted in the publication in 1924 of MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST.  I frequently read from this devotional, and it has greatly deepened my faith and understanding of God’s Word.

The characteristic of a disciple is not that he does good things, but that he is good in motive because he has been made good by the supernatural grace of God.

From Matthew 5:18-19:  “For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one letter, not one stroke of a letter, will pass from the law until all is accomplished.  Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”

If our common sense decisions are not God’s order, He will press them and check; then we must be quiet and wait for the direction of His presence.
