Stone Breakers: Rock & Roll

How is it possible?

How do they do this work day in and day out? I am not sure how one type of rock can weigh more than another, but I am telling you these rocks are heavy!

Many are barefooted with a baby on their backs. They ascend and descend the hill with a massive payload balancing on their head and hands. No gym membership needed here! This is a full day work out from sunup to sunset. Still, to this day, we are not fully aware why the Lord has led us to this place. These people are very thankful they have work, although it is very hard and dangerous. Yes, we can think of modernization, but then where would they work? How would they support their family and pay school fees for the children?

The best we can do is let them know they are loved by a Savior, the One who paid the ultimate price. He’s the One who carried the weight of the world on His own shoulders. The one who is the “Chief Corner Stone.”

“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, 
a cornerstone chosen and precious,
and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”

1 Peter 2:6
