Ambassadors in Chains

Watchman Nee said, "It will help us greatly and keep us from much confusion, if we keep constantly before us this fact, that God will answer all our questions (and prayers?) in one way only, namely by showing us more of His Son."  If we are to really be His ambassadors, even when such means we walk through the darkest, most painful places, literally "ambassadors in chains," that we will have greater and greater revelations of Christ, His Son, and through those revelations, greater and greater degrees of His life.  Life that will flow freely and fully through us, to others. Though kept in our own "prison cells" by so many different things, none can hold us as He, in us, calls others out of theirs.  Ambassadors in chains, vessels of His freedom. ~ Gary O'Shell
