Oswald Chambers wrote, "Thank God for the sight of all you have never been yet. You have had the vision, but you are not there yet by any means. It is when we are in the valley, where we prove whether we will be the choice ones, that most of us turn back. We are not quite prepared for the blows that must come if we are going to be turned into the shape of the vision.  We have seen what we are not, and what God wants us to be, but are we willing to have the vision "battr'd to shape and use" by God?  The batterings always come in commonplace ways and through commonplace people...

Whether we will let the vision be turned into actual character depends upon us , not upon God... We have to learn to live in reliance on what we saw in the vision, not in ecstacies and conscious contemplation of God, but to live in actualities in the light of the vision until we get to the veritable reality.  Every bit of training is in that direction. Learn to thank God for making known His demands."
