A hand that can’t help
By jpnnana | April 5, 2008
In Ibaragi prefecture about two hours from Tokyo there is a huge “goddess of mercy” that can be seen from miles around. The hand is extended as if offering help, but this stone god has hands that cannot help and ears that cannot hear. Also, no spirit to touch and heal a broken heart.
Statues of the “goddess of mercy” like this one can be seen all across Japan. They dot the tops of hills near the ocean or on the plains. This statue has no life and cannot give life. The Bible says those who worship these will be like them. Pray for the people who see these statues to have their spiritual eyes opened to the truth that there is a living God who loves them and sent his son to die that they might live.
