This is yet another great book by Corrie ten Boom. She always has such wisdom to share, yet she shares it in an easy to understand and endearing way.

What I Liked: Again, Corrie ten Boom is excellent at speaking a lot of truth into believers' lives (and even those who do not know Christ yet!). I like her honesty and all the stories she shares. This is quite a short book, so it would make a perfect little devotional book, even! There were several parts of this book that I found my heart becoming more encouraged.

What I Didn't Like: There wasn't anything significant that I didn't like about this book. It was very enjoyable.

I give this book 4 stars for an encouraging book.

If anyone had the right to focus on their own hardships it would be Corrie ten Boom! But no, the heart of this book is the Lord, her desire to share the Gospel with everyone, and her sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. Her own prison experience opened doors for her to minister to others in prison, and that she did. I read the Hiding Place years ago and just found this gem for a quarter in a used bookstore. What a treasure!

While I did enjoy reading this book and learning from it (it was a Corrie ten Boom book - how couldn't I?), it didn't resonate with me as much as most of Miss Corrie's books do. It felt somewhat jumbled or discombobulated at times. Still, I got good thoughts and am glad I read it. Miss Corrie has a way with words and is very good at speaking at an easy-to-understand level, without talking down to people.

Corrie ten Boom, "Plenty For Everyone" (Auckland: Christian Literature Crusade; 1973)

I love this response by Corrie ten Boom to some Kiwi Christians ...

“On one such occasion, in New Zealand, I received a letter from some people inviting me to speak in a certain town. They wrote, 'You understand that you may not teach us. You can give your testimony, but be scriptural and obey 1 Cor.14:34-35.'

I replied, 'If by this you mean that I must come with a closed Bible then I cannot accept your invitation. I am always happy to give my testimony to glorify the Lord, but only to underline the Gospel. I come to teach the Word of God, not to talk about my own experiences.'

Immediately an answer came, 'Forget what we have written. We have heard that God is blessing the meetings where you speak.'”

Corrie ten Boom, "Plenty For Everyone" (Auckland: Christian Literature Crusade; 1973), 66.

“The Lord gives the word [of power]; the women who bear and publish [the news] are a great host.” - (Psalm 68:11; Amplified Bible)

There is an ocean of Gods love available-there is plenty for everyone. May God grant you never to doubt that victorious love-whatever the circumstances.
