The Gospel is open to all; the most respectable sinner has no more claim on it than the worst.
David Martyn Lloyd-Jones
God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.
2 Samuel 22:33
The King James Version
I count all that part of my life lost which I spent not in communion with God or in doing good.
John Donne

They were services like no others, these times in Barracks 28, within our concentration camp. A single meeting night might include a recital of the Magnificat in Latin by a group of Roman Catholics, a whispered hymn by some Lutherans, and a sotto-voce chant by Eastern Orthodox women. With each moment the crowd around us would swell, packing the nearby platforms, hanging over the edges, until the high structures groaned and swayed. At last either Betsie or I would open the Bible. Because only the Hollanders could understand the Dutch text we would translate aloud in German. And then we would hear the life-giving words passed back along the aisles in French, Polish, Russian, Czech, back into Dutch. They were little previews of heaven, these evenings beneath the light bulb.
Corrie ten Boom
Receive my instruction, and not silver, And knowledge rather than choice gold; For wisdom is better than rubies, And all the things one may desire cannot be compared with her.
Proverbs 8:10-11
The New King James Version
God often visits us, but most of the time we are not at home.
French proverb
