“Beyond the statue”
On the 13 of
September, U.N leaders, Permanent Representatives to the UN and Representatives
of all religions prayed for the success of the 71st Session of the
UN General Assembly, and for the people who are in needs of home, peace and developments
in various parts of the world.
When we (my
husband and I) went into the church, there was a huge statue of Jesus in a
position of blessing. It made me wonder. Whilst we were waiting to start worship
service, I asked myself, “Am I right or wrong to pray in front of the statue of
Jesus?”
But I don’t want to go back as I knew that this
service is to pray for Peace in the world where we live. I really wanted to
participate in it for the world though I am a housewife. From our church last
Sunday, I had got a message “Jesus meets you where you are and Jesus calls you
in your situation.” Sometimes, Jesus
calls me to pray for those who in needs. Jesus cares everyone and, in his sight
all are precious. Jesus never forgets women who are in the kitchen. Later on, my
question and my feelings are stopped as the prayer service was started.
This is the
first time I have ever attended in RC church. When service started, I called Jesus from my
heart. Moreover, I had a feeling on others who are in different beliefs how
they would feel and pray. Then I realized
that they were not different from me because we all had to concentrate on the bulletin.
Prayers on the bulletin are our common aim to come at the front of Jesus
statue.
Then, I realized that beyond the statute we had common aim to obtain peace in the world.
Beyond the statute we love and share with those who are in need.
Beyond the statute we had one spirit of peace, justice, equality and prosperity of the world where we live!
