"My personal life may be crowded with small petty happenings, altogether insignificant. But if I obey Jesus Christ in the seemingly random circumstances of life, they become pinholes through which I see the face of God."
"My personal life may be crowded with small petty happenings, altogether insignificant. But if I obey Jesus Christ in the seemingly random circumstances of life, they become pinholes through which I see the face of God."
~Oswald Chambers
Life can get really cluttered, and not just schedule-wise. When there's vital stuff to do, the mind's got to stay focused on it, and sometimes that cuts out time for meditation or talking with the Lord. And then a person can feel guilty because they worry they're not honoring or that they're even neglecting their relationship with God.
This quote by Oswald Chambers totally addresses that concern though. Pinholes in life: small, scattered moments throughout time where one just does what they know is God's will. Just taking a few seconds to do what Jesus would do. Doing this is awesome not only because it's a relief to know we're doing what pleases God, but also because doing what Jesus would do reminds of how wonderful He is. Don't you agree?
What do you think of this quote?
