Corrie ten Boom, The Hiding Place: The Triumphant True Story of Corrie Ten Boom

Elisabeth Elliot
“Let not our longing slay the appetite of our living,” he wrote to me, and those words have helped me very often since. We accept and thank God for what is given, not allowing the not-given to spoil it.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Let Me Be a Woman

Elisabeth Elliot
“There is no qualitative or quantitative measurement for pain. It is simply there--sharp or dull, shooting or stabbing, bearable or excruciating, local or general, it is unexplained, uninvited, unavoidable. It takes command. It is all-encompassing, implacable, exigent.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Love Has A Price Tag

Elisabeth Elliot
“Some day, even you will see that there's sense in this. Your suffering is never for nothing.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Suffering is Never for Nothing
