More quotes by Corrie Ten Boom
Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.
Corrie Ten Boom
God dealt with our whole situation on the cross there is nothing left for you to settle. Just say to Him, 'Lord, I cannot forgive and I will no longer try to do it but I trust that You in me will do it. I can't forgive and love but I trust that You will forgive and love in my place and that You will do these things in me.'
Corrie Ten Boom
When I try, I fail. When I trust, He succeeds.
Corrie Ten Boom
You see, a potter can only mold the clay when it lies completely in his hand. It requires complete surrender.
Corrie Ten Boom
Thank you, Lord, that You are the Conqueror and that You want to make us more than conquerors.
Corrie Ten Boom
What wings are to a bird, and sails to a ship, so is prayer to the soul.
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. They are to be streams of living water, channels of mercy to those who are still in the world. It is possible for them to do this because they are overcomers.
Corrie Ten Boom
Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.
Corrie Ten Boom
God does not have problems. Only plans.
Corrie Ten Boom
The devil smiles when we make plans. He laughs when we get too busy. But he trembles when we pray-especially when we pray together.
Corrie Ten Boom
There is no pit so deep, that God's love is not deeper still.
Corrie Ten Boom
When a Christian shuns fellowship with other Christians, the devil smiles, When he stops studying the Bible, the devil laughs. When he stops praying, the devils shouts for joy.
Corrie Ten Boom
Today I know that such memories are the key not to the past, but to the future. I know that the experiences of our lives, when we let God use them, become the mysterious and perfect preparation for the work He will give us to do.
Corrie Ten Boom
... God uses such seemingly insignificant ways to prepare us for the plan He has for our lives.
Corrie Ten Boom
Four marks of true repentance are: acknowledgement of wrong, willingness to confess it, willingness to abandon it, and willingness to make restitution.
Corrie Ten Boom
Worry is like racing the engine of an automobile without letting in the clutch.
Corrie Ten Boom
God only make plans, no problems. In heaven, there is never panic.
Corrie Ten Boom
Worries carry responsibilitie s that belong to God, not to you. Worry does not enable us to escape evil it makes us unfit to cope with it when it comes.
Corrie Ten Boom
If the Gospels were truly the pattern of God’s activity, then defeat was only the beginning.
Corrie Ten Boom
The tree on the mountain takes whatever the weather brings. If it has any choice at all, it is in putting down roots as deeply as possible.---Each New Day
