Customer Reviews

"Faith is more about nestling than wrestling"
The beautiful story of Corrie Ten Boom's childhood showing a family living through a period of hardship sharing their life and faith with those God sends them. God's gentle supporting hand can be felt through all their trials as they rely on his provision and care and not on their own strength.

Full of lessons from the life of someone whose was a triumph of faith, without hipocracy. This is especially helpful for those who feel they are too tired to fight.
