Hello ,
The Taj Mahal is one of the most beautiful and costly tombs ever built, but there is something fascinating about its
beginnings.
In 1629, when the favorite wife of Indian ruler Shah Jahan died, he ordered that a magnificent tomb be built as a memorial to her. The shah placed his wife's casket in the middle of a parcel of land, and construction of the temple literally began around it. But several years into the venture, the Shah's grief for his wife gave way to a passion
for the project.
One day while he was surveying the sight, he reportedly stumbled over a wooden box, and he had some workers throw it out. It was months before he realized that his wife's casket had been destroyed. The original purpose for the memorial became lost in the details of construction.
As we approach 2024, let's remember our spiritual purposes and goals for the year. We can ask our Heavenly Father to keep us on task spiritually. He is faithful.
"God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his
Son, Jesus Christ our Lord." 1 Corinthians 1:9
Have a great day and God bless!
