Honour from God
“The Lord saith, for them that honour me, I will honour.” (1 Sam.2:30)
On the Zambia- Zimbabwe border, the river Zambezi suddenly plunges into a chasm that is nearly 100 meters deep, creating one of the largest sheets of falling water and a cloud of spray. This fall in the ‘dankest Africa’ as the country was once called was not known to the world till David Livingstone, a Britisher, discovered it in 1855 and called it after his monarch.
The Victoria Falls was named by David Livingstone, the great Missionary who gave his life to serving the Lord Jesus Christ among African people. Now there is a small island just at the edge of the falls that is named ‘Livingstone Island’ after him and a statute to his memory at another edge of the falls. One reaches this famous tourist place after landing at the Livingstone Airport in Livingstone Town. UNSECO has declared this place as a world heritage site.
David Livingstone shines as a star, being one of the ambassadors of Christ with worldwide fame.
