Divine protection

In a very recent report from the town of Gunungsitoli in Indonesia’s Nias island, it was reported (illustrated) that the statue of Christ stood intact amid the rubble created by the massive tsunami disaster.
In 1932 when a very violent quake hit Quetta (now in Pakistan) which killed 30,000, our agiary and a mosque remained unaffected.
In December 1967, when the first Koyna earthquake rattled Maharashtra and areas up to Bharuch, an entire hamlet in Koyna district remained untouched because the Muslim population were saying their namaz that time, during the month of Ramzan.
When earthquakes hit Latur (Maha-rashtra) and Bhuj (Gujarat), the idols of Lord Ganesh remained unscratched.
Nature knows best!
