Corrie Ten Boom

You are not reconciled to God if you are unreconciled with your fellow human beings.

We must mirror God's love in the midst of a world full of hatred. We are the mirrrors of God's love, so we may show Jesus by our lives

There is no pit so deep, that God's love is not deeper still.

Faith is like radar that sees through the fog -- the reality of things at a distance that the human eye cannot see.

Worry is an old man with bended head, carrying a load of feathers which he thinks are lead.

It hurts when God has to PRY things out of our hand!

Father sat down on the edge of the narrow bed. "Corrie," he began gently, "when you and I go to Amsterdam-when do I give you your ticket?" I sniffed a few times, considering this. "Why, just before we get on the train." "Exactly. And our wise Father in heaven knows when we're going to need things, too. Don't run out ahead of Him, Corrie. When the time comes that some of us will have to die, you will look into your heart and find the strength you need-just in time.

Even as the angry vengeful thoughts boiled through me, I saw the sin of them. Jesus Christ had died for this man; was I going to ask for more? Lord Jesus, I prayed, forgive me and help me to forgive him....Jesus, I cannot forgive him. Give me your forgiveness....And so I discovered that it is not on our forgiveness any more than on our goodness that the world's healing hinges, but on His. When He tells us to love our enemies, He gives along with the command, the love itself.

Perhaps only when human effort had done it's best and failed, would God's power alone be free to work.

If the enemy cannot make you BAD, he’ll make you BUSY.

Expect resistance but pray for miracles!

My father prayed because he had a good friend with whom to share the problems of the day.

Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.

Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart.

If you cannot find time to pray, ask for forgiveness. Ask to be cleansed of the sin of having no time to pray ... _x000D_ It could be that Satan is pushing you into too much work so that you cannot take time to pray.

Trying to do the Lord's work in your own strength is the most confusing, exhausting, and tedious of all work. But when you are filled with the Holy Spirit, then the ministry of Jesus just flows out of you.

Hold everything in your hands lightly, otherwise it hurts when God pries your fingers open.

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength.

Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.

God, make me willing to be made willing.

The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something, and enter God’s realm where everything is possible. He specializes in the impossible. Nothing is too great for His almighty power. Nothing is too small for His love.
