Often I have heard people say, "How good God is! We prayed that it would not rain for our church picnic, and look at the lovely weather!" Yes, God is good when He sends good weather. But God was also good when He allowed my sister, Betsie, to starve to death before my eyes in a German concentration camp. I remember one occasion when I was very discouraged there. Everything around us was dark, and there was darkness in my heart. I remember telling Betsie that I thought God had forgotten us. "No, Corrie," said Betsie, "He has not forgotten us. Remember His Word: For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His steadfast love towards those who fear Him." Corrie concludes, "There is an ocean of God's love available- there is plenty for everyone. May God grant you never to doubt that victorious love- whatever the circumstances."

-Corrie Ten Boom-

If I were in their situation would I be able to say the same thing about God's grand love? Would I trust Him enough to remember that He has not forgotten about me when I enter trials and tribulations? May I be so in love with my Saviour that I may always remember his steadfast love for me. In whatever circumstance, God's love will always be there.
