Oswald Chambers on humble service

Humility is a trademark of all the Christian churches. Servitude is a tenant of the Christian faith. And yet, as Oswald Chambers points out in this selection from his popular devotional, “My Utmost for His Highest”, the virtue of a humble soul can, at times, be stretched too far.

“The way we continually talk about our own inability is an insult to the Creator. The deploring of our own incompetence is a slander against God for having overlooked us.”
