Was corrie ten boom wise?

Yes, I think Corrie TenBoom was wise. She had the help of her immediate family and they all contributed to saving as many people as they could with the help of God. They knew God was with them. After they were caught and sent to the concentration camp, she and her sister tried to help the other women in the camp by singing, etc. After Corrie was set free, she returned to her helping ways and was able to forgive the people who imprisoned her and her sister. She then spoke world wide about her experiences and wrote her book. For her, these were all wise decisions and were the wise way to live in this world of heartache and pain. Thru' her pain she was able to be a support to others.
