I first saw a blurb about these tsunami marking stones in World Magazine. Here is a nice little article and photo.
I have a few thoughts about those. How it is love in action to warn future generations of a tragedy that would occur maybe every few hundred years. And how they remind me of the stones raised by the Hebrews to remind them of God's faithfulness.
I Samuel 7:12 ~ Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen and called its name Ebenezer (stone of help); for he said, “Till now the LORD has helped us.”
I wonder where in my life I should raise stone markers to warn or remind others.

Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteThat's very interesting. I passed it on to my mom.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, my markers might not be so monumental...perhaps something like don't let the piles get higher than this point or household chaos may occur.
