Must read!

If you know me well then you probably know that I adore sleep. Eight hours a night is something I prioritize in life as much as possible. But today I sit at my computer sleepy eyed and a little worse for the wear, but so content. You see, I have stayed up night after night this week, long after bedtime, flipping through the pages of Corrie ten Boom's "The Hiding Place" as quicky as possible. I literally could not put it down, and ended up falling asleep in the middle of pages against my will. All I can say is if you have not read it, step away from your computer and get your hands on a copy ASAP. Corrie tells of her family's journey during World War II to protect the defenseless and house those fleeing the Nazis. Their story is one of limitless courage, unwavering faith, and selfless love. The ten Booms prove that the love, protection and provision of God is real and deeper and wider than anything this world can throw at us. READ IT!

Psalm 139:11-12

If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me," even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you."

Praise God that, as Betsie ten Boom said, "There is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still."
