Corrie Ten Boom was a Dutch Christian. When the Germans invaded Holland in 1940, her whole family began hiding Jews from the Nazis in their home. They did this for Two years, until an informant betrayed the. They were all arrested and their father died 10 days later in prison. She and her sister Bestie endured unspeakable horrors at a concentration camp, where her sister died. Her sister said this before her death. “There is no pit so deep that God’s love is not deeper still.” Corrie was released on a clerical error one week before they executed all the women that were Corrie’s age. Corrie then began speaking publicly about forgiveness. In 1947 a former guard came up to her and told her that he had become a Christian. He said he knew that Christ had forgiven him for the cruel things he did, but he asked her if she would forgive him. “It was the most difficult thing Corrie had ever been asked to do, but as she, by choice of will, gave him her hand, the love of Christ flooded her whole being, and she was able to say, ‘Yes, brother, I forgive you, with all of my hear!'” Corrie traveled to more than 60 nations, preaching the message of Christ’s forgiveness. Thousands became believers through her many books and speaking engagements. Corrie died on her 91st birthday. —- Taken from an article by Felicity Dale in the Modern English SpiritLed Woman Bible
