great movie

In watching the movie The Hiding Place I have a new found joy. Corrie TenBoom was an amazing person. She was not a Jew but was someone who stood up for them and so was punished by being sent off to a concentration camp. She was in a pit so low and deep and gut wrenching with no end in sight- yet she found strength in the little Bible she snuck in. She read it like it were food to her soul and even read it aloud to serve as a ray on sunshine to others in the camp. People were dying, in pain, sick and alone around her and I am sure felt hopeless everyday. All I can say is wow. Not only did she allow God to uplift her spirits but she served as a light to others despite her pain. I am in a place in life where I am in pain- but no where close to the pain and despair surrounding Corrie TenBoom. If Corrie used the Bible as her source of joy- surely since I am in a place much better then she was in- it would do the same for me. I have a new light- reading God's word can help sustain me and give me hope during a time of life I don't understand. I have been reading the Bible with a new found joy since this movie. I highly suggest it. Stick it in your netflix que.
