CHALLENGE



I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.-Phillippians 3:14



"It is arduous work to keep the master ambition in front. It means...not being ambitious to win souls or to establish churches or to have revivals, but being ambitious only to be 'accepted of Him'....Paul is like a musician who does not need the approval of the audience if he can catch the look of approval from his Master....I have to learn to relate everything to the master ambition, and to maintain it without any cessation. My worth to God in public is what I am in private. Is my master ambition to please Him and be acceptable to Him, or is it something less, no matter how noble?" -Oswald Chambers, MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST.
