I had the great pleasure of spending the weekend with Immaculee Ilibagiza, author of Left to Tell, discovering God amidst the Rwandan Holocaust. She was speaking about the apparitions of the Virgin Mary on Mt. Kibeho. Her message was that Mary came to Rwanda to plead with the people to change their ways and to love one another. If they did not horrific things would happen in their country.
Immaculee attributes the Holocaust to the fact that the people of Rwanda did not heed this warning. "We failed to live out the commandment to Love our neighbor as ourselves."
How our lives would be different if we just chose kindness rather than indifference.
