"The tendency is in us all to say, 'You must not trust in feelings'; perfectly true, but if your religion is without feeling, there is nothing in it. If you are living a life right with God, you will have feeling, most emphatically so, but you will never run the risk of basing your faith on feelings. The Christian is one who bases his whole confidence in God and His work of grace, then the emotions become the beautiful ornament of the life, not the source of it."
--Oswald Chambers,
in Biblical Ethics
from The Quotable Oswald Chambers
