Whenever we cannot love in the old, human way . . . God can give us the perfect way.

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?

There is no panic in Heaven! God has no problems, only plans.

Some knowledge is too heavy...you cannot bear it...your Father will carry it until you are able.

What wings are to a bird, and sails to a ship, so is prayer to the soul.

[Corrie Ten Boom @CorrieTenBoom]

Any concern too small to be turned into a prayer is too small to be made into a burden.

It is not my ability, but my response to God’s ability, that counts.

If you look at the world, you'll be distressed. If you look within, you'll be depressed. If you look at God you'll be at rest.

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

[Corrie Ten Boom @CorrieTenBoom]

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

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

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empites today of its strength

For a long moment we grasped each other's hands- former guard w/ former prisoner. I had never known God's love so intensely as I did then.
