there is no pit
Dec 3rd, 2007 by Nathanael
In “The Hiding Place,” just before Betsy ten Boom died in the concentration camp, she looked her sister Corrie in the eye and feebly said, “…must tell people what we have learned here. We must tell them that there is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still. They will listen to us, Corrie, because we have been here.”
Have you been rescued from a pit? Then you know the love of our God is deeper than the pit. We’ve been there. And Jesus knows. He’s been there. Tell someone.
There is no pit so deep,
That Jesus is not deeper still,
How do we know?
We’ve been there.
There is no pit so deep
That Jesus is not deeper still,
How do we know?
He has been there.
There is no pit no deep,
That His love is not deeper still,
Make sure you tell someone.
You have some great thoughts, thanks for sharing them!
