God does not give us grace days, weeks, months, or years in advance. Every 24 hours God gives us grace for the day. Book of Proverbs – Proverbs For The Modern Day – God’s Grace.
During World War II there was a young woman named Corrie Ten Boom who worked with her father, sister, and family members to assist several Jews to escape the Nazis from the Holocaust during World War II by hiding them in her home. Ultimately she and her family were captured and placed in prison. While there she witnessed many cruel acts, physical violence, and injuries. Unfortunately, she even witnessed the deaths of her sister and father. With a miracle turn of events, Corrie was released.
Someone asked Corrie how she was able to live through those awful events and not carry malice and unforgiveness in her heart for the people who murdered her father and sister. Corrie spoke about how when she was a small child her father always took her on train rides. She recounted how her father would never give her the train ticket until he saw the train pulling into the station. When the train arrived that was when her father handed her the ticket and they both stepped onboard. Corrie stated, “The reason you can’t fathom how I could forgive the person who killed my family, how I could not be filled with bitterness and hatred, is because just like my father and our train tickets, God doesn’t give us the grace we need until we’re about to step onboard. But if you were to ever go through something like I went through I can assure you God’s grace will be there to help you make it through the dark valleys and still keep your head held high and your heart filled with love.” Book of Proverbs – Proverbs For The Modern Day – God’s Grace.
Corrie Ten Boom Quotes:
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.
Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart.
Let God’s promises shine on your problems.
When a train goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, you don’t throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the engineer.
It is not my ability, but my response to God’s ability, that counts.
Worry is a cycle of inefficient thoughts whirling around a center of fear.
