More quotes by Corrie Ten Boom

The world is deathly ill. It is dying. The Great Physician has already signed the death certificate. Yet, there is still a great work for Christians to do.

You saw we could lose our lives for this child. I would consider that the greatest honor that could come to my family.
Corrie Ten Boom
If it’s dark everywhere, you can become so discouraged. You might doubt whether light still exists. But even if you can’t see the Lord, He sees you and me. Jesus said, 'And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age' (Matt. 28:20). When it’s necessary, He suddenly says, 'I’m still here!'
Corrie Ten Boom
If the Gospels were truly the pattern of God’s activity, then defeat was only the beginning.

God has plans, not problems for our lives.
