Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust by Immaculée Ilibagiza
4.0
Immacule'e Ilibagiza's story of the Rwandan genocide is a book I couldn't put down. Even the briefest descriptions of the horrors the people of Rwanda suffered broke my heart over and over again. Yet, she finds ways to forgive those who were caught-up in the political evil that surrounded her country. She describes her self-discovery through God and overcoming such awful circumstances with hope and faith. Immaculee beats terrible odds to share this story.
I'm not one to delve into stories of majestic spiritual miracles. I tend to shy away from books that are even written by religious individuals. I'm so glad that I stepped out of my comfort zone. This book is more than a story of survival; it's a story of faith and self-relization. Immaculee describes what really matters in this world.
"The love of a single heart can make a world of a difference. I believe that we can heal Rwanda--and our world--by haling one heart at a time."
Thank you, Immaculee, for sharing your story...and your faith.
