Question

Nollie sends Corrie a package with a secret message after Nollie is released. Name at least one thing in the package. Where was the message? What did the message say? And what does it mean?

Answer 1

In "The Hiding Place," Nollie sends Corrie a needlepoint embroidery. The message hidden within quotes 1 Thessalonians 5:18, promoting gratitude in adversity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reference appears to be from "The Hiding Place" by Corrie ten Boom. In the package, Nollie sends Corrie a needlepoint embroidery of blue and yellow flowers. Hidden within the embroidery was a piece of tissue paper with a verse from 1 Thessalonians 5:18: "Give thanks in all circumstances."

The message, concealed to avoid detection by the guards, encouraged gratitude amid adversity. Nollie's covert act symbolizes resilience and faith, inspiring Corrie to find solace and gratitude even in the dire conditions of the concentration camp, reinforcing a message of hope and spiritual endurance during challenging times.
