Door opener

In a video on a Bible verse, I had told that I stuttered as a child and was often very ashamed of it. When I called an elderly nun at Easter to wish her Happy Easter, she let me know in a joyful voice: "You know, that was really a miracle. We listened to your monthly impulse. Many of our sisters know you and would never have thought that you would have had to struggle with such challenges as a young person. We are used - also in our congregation - to only telling the 'success stories'. But when we heard your impulse, one after the other started to tell about her own challenges and deficiencies - for almost two hours. It was a piece of heaven on earth!"
