***ANYTHING FOR ETERNAL LOVE***
During the dark days of the Second World War, two sisters, Corrie and Betsie ten Boom...
... were thrown into the Nazi concentration camp of Ravensbrück.
>> Their crime?
Hiding Jews in their home....
... for love of Christ.
Their barracks were overcrowded...
... and crawling with fleas.
>> The stench was unbearable.
>> The pain unending.
Corrie broke down in tears:
>> “Betsie, how can we live like this?”
And her sister, with eyes of faith, whispered:
>> “Corrie, our faith teaches us to "give thanks in all circumstances. Even for these fleas!”
Corrie thought it was madness.
>> Thank God for fleas?
But she obeyed.
Together, they began to pray and give thanks...
... even for the pests that tormented them.
Weeks later, they discovered something incredible: Because of those fleas, the guards refused to enter their barracks.
>> And that meant...
... they were free to live their faith, with prayer and reading the Bible
... they could even share the Love of Christ to people around them.
