“I’m also fortunate enough to hear a simple church bell on Sunday mornings.”
Years ago I was living at an artillery range just south of the North Korean DMZ. The area looked just like that used in the opening scenes of the M*A*S*H TV show. To our West was a deep river gorge with a small building sitting on the far side.
Our first Sunday morning in camp we were treated to sound of church bells (albeit electronic ones) coming from that small building and playing “Rock of Ages”.
Priceless memory!
i remember after 9-11 during the memorial services they had pastors of different religions offer prayers
it was politically correct and many of the prayers seemed uncomfortably calculated...not very comforting
then an old man who was a leader of the Sikh religion was helped to the podium
and he sang a prayer in his own language...he didn’t care about giving a political message, wasn’t there for pr, he just put his heart and soul into his prayer and song, and it really communicated
eyes are moist thinking about it...i follow Jesus but i will always have a heart for the Sikhs since that day
