When she was hiding from the killers who killed a million people, she began to pray and pray.
She told the audience that through prayer, God was able to teach her about true love and how to love her enemies. In the bathroom where she hid as killers were searching for people to kill, she began to think of role models who believed in love.
She asked herself, “who do you want to be, Hilter or Mother Teresa?”
When she was finally able to leave the bathroom, Ilibagiza learned her whole family in Rwanda had been murdered. In her despair she heard God tell her, “The journey of your loved ones is over here on Earth, but not in Heaven.”
Ilibagiza decided at that moment she had the power to choose how she would live her life. Even if she didn’t know how much longer she would have, her journey was just beginning, and she didn’t want to choose to hate.
