More quotes by Corrie Ten Boom
If you cannot find time to pray, ask for forgiveness. Ask to be cleansed of the sin of having no time to pray ... It could be that Satan is pushing you into too much work so that you cannot take time to pray.
Corrie Ten Boom
What wings are to a bird, and sails to a ship, so is prayer to the soul.

Faith is like radar that sees through the fog -- the reality of things at a distance that the human eye cannot see.
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
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
God never measures the mind... He always put His tape measure in the HEART
Corrie Ten Boom
We are not a postwar generation, but a pre-peace generation. Jesus is coming.
Corrie Ten Boom
God has plans, not problems for our lives. The life of a Christian is an education for a higher service. God is training you for something.
Corrie Ten Boom
We never know how God will answer our prayers, but we can expect that He will get us involved in His plan for the answer. If we are true intercessors, we must be ready to take part in God’s work on behalf of the people for whom we pray.
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
A religion that is small enough for our understanding would not be big enough for our needs.
