Prayer Fragrance

Birth: 03.09.1889 City: Rampur, Punjab Country: India Place of Vision: Tibet The people of Tibet were strong followers of Buddhism. The country forbade the gospel of Christ to be preached there, and anyone found violating this rule was punished cruelly. Sadhu Sundar Singh traveled to Tibet alone carrying Lord Jesus Christ in his heart and The Holy Bible in his hands. He was a Sikh by birth and hated Christianity. He lost his mother while he was fourteen and underwent a crisis of faith. One day he wanted to end his life if the true God doesn't reveal himself. Suddenly his room was filled with light, and he had a vision of Jesus. Sundar was convinced in his heart that Jesus was the true Savior. After accepting Christ, he longed deeply for the people of Tibet to be saved. At the age of 19, he went to Tibet to preach the gospel, where he was caught and tortured by the Tibetan Lamas several times. He suffered all the punishments with joy. A repetitive offender in Tibet was punished by being thrown into a deep dilapidated well and is left to die inside it. Sadhu Sundar Singh was also given the same punishment. As soon as he hit the bottom of the well, his shoulders broke. He found several other rotting dead bodies around him. But, after three days of prayer, he was miraculously rescued by someone who lowered a rope with a cot tied to it. He managed to get out of the well and resumed his evangelistic work. He carried out God's work in many parts of Nepal, Tibet, and India. He was an excellent teacher who taught the scriptures with illustrations, making them easy to understand. He wrote several books that are like a rod and a staff to conduct a good Christian life. He is referred to as 'an apostle with bleeding feet and also as 'an Indian apostle. He was born on this day (3rd September) in 1889. Beloved, are you willing to endure any suffering for Christ's sake?
