Exceptional in the Ordinary

"We have the idea that God is going to do some exceptional thing, that He is preparing and fitting us for some extraordinary thing by and by [and He may be], but as we go on in grace we find that God is glorifying Himself here and now, in the present minute. If we have God’s say-so behind us, the most amazing strength comes, and we learn to sing in the ordinary days and ways." - Oswald Chambers #exceptional #glorifying #strength
