ncarol.com/10313495

RALEIGH, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Oswald Chambers never sat down to write a devotional book. He preached to soldiers and students, taught at a small Bible college, and died in 1917 at age forty-three. His words survived in shorthand notebooks and scattered notes.

His wife, Gertrude "Biddy" Chambers, had worked as a court stenographer. She had taken down his messages word for word. After his death, she spent years sifting piles of notes, grouping them into short readings, and shaping them into a one-year devotional. In 1927, a small publisher brought out My Utmost for His Highest.

The first audience was tiny. Former students, a few missionaries, some friends. The book sat in quiet stacks in small shops. No campaign. No tour. No push.

Yet readers met a direct call to surrender and trust. They began to press the book into other hands. Missionaries packed it in trunks. Pastors quoted it in sermons. Copies traveled across oceans in suitcases and boxes.

Printings grew. Translations followed. Over time, My Utmost for His Highest stood in homes and churches on every continent. A widow's patient work with old shorthand notes became one of the best-known devotionals in the world.
