Each new day
Corrie ten Boom
Each New Day is a collection of short yet profound devotions for every day of the year from the heart of Corrie ten Boom. This remarkable woman of great faith and author of the best-selling The Hiding Place was able to trust and serve God even in a Nazi concentration camp-and throughout each day that followed. In this book, she guides readers on how they, too, can find hope, victory, and wisdom. Based on incidents from Corrie's fascinating life, each day's entry illustrates scriptural principles and attests to God's faithfulness. The result is a year-long candid reminder of the Christian's victory over sin, Satan, and death; of God's promises and care; and that each new day brings a chance to serve and love him more.
