Each one prepares us for other things. Nothing that I went through has been wasted in the experience that I can share now with others. Would I have wanted to go through the hard and difficult places? no... but they happened and because of them, I am a stronger person.

AND I met her at the church I attended then in Redwood City, CA. She spoke at church one night and then was at a lady's house the next day and shared some more. Considering my poverty, etc., in those days, it truly was a blessing to see and meet her. I also had the movie, but was afraid of seeing it. A couple weeks ago, I finally did watch it a couple times. It is good!! I have used that book as one to give to a "tough" one who has come to the Lord and needs to see reality. [I also give David Wilkerson's "Cross and Switchblade" and Brother Andrew's "God's Smuggler". The goal is to open up the world to people, and help them understand how/where God can lead them, help them serve Him.<br /><br />Anyhow, sorry to yammer so long, but you, obviously, hit my heart Big Time. I truly understand the sorrow that Corrie went through and that many of us have already, or will, go through, too.<br /><br />Bless you. Hope your kids are touched deeply in their hearts, souls, and spirits.caryjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488368153291827383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740287293733599611.post-91301342305945292352013-09-07T14:49:32.635-04:002013-09-07T14:49:32.635-04:00I love that quote from the book, actually somethin...I love that quote from the book, actually something I'm pondering myself as I write my book. I think the things we remember most in our past are truly pieces of stories with a greater message.
