Oswald Chambers Quotes
Faith by its very nature must be tried, and the real trial of faith is not that we find it difficult to trust God, but that God's character has to be cleared in our own minds. Faith in its actual working out has to go through spells of unsyllabled isolation. Never confound the trial of faith with the ordinary discipline of life. Much that we call the trial of faith is the inevitable result of being alive.

And what if thou, sweet May, hast known
Mishap by worm and blight;

Were caught as in a snare;
Such is the lot of all the young,
However bright and fair.
