“Worrying is carrying tomorrow’s load with today’s strength–carrying two days at once.  It is moving into tomorrow ahead of time.  Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow–it empties today of its strength. . . . Jesus is stronger than all of our problems.”

Corrie ten Boom, He Cares, He Comforts: In Sickness and In Health.  Old Tappan, NJ: Fleming H. Revell Company, 1977, pages 83-84.

Corrie ten Boom was a survivor of Nazi concentration camps for hiding Jews in Holland during the Second World War.
