Quotemeal: Jan. 24th, 2015

Saturday, January 24, 2015

"Wherever there is any element of pride or of conceit, Jesus cannot expound a thing. He will take us through the disappointment of a wounded pride of intellect, through disappointment of heart. He will reveal inordinate affections-things over which we never thought He would have to get us alone."
— Oswald Chambers
