While I was napping today, Leslie dropped off the book she just finished reading, "Left To Tell, Discovering God Admist the Rwandan Holocaust", at my back door (with yummy soup). I just finished reading it. And as I closed the book, I sobbed. I sobbed as I read Immaculee's ending words;
"Rwanda can be a paradise again, but it will take the love of the entire world to heal my homeland. And that's as it should be, for what happened in Rwanda happened to us all-humanity was wounded by the genocide.
The love of a single heart can make a world of difference. I believe that we can heal Rwanda-and our world-by healing one heart at a time.
I hope my story helps."
Immaculee, your story has helped me. Your heart full of love has made a world of difference in my own.
