“I will restore the fortunes of Jacob’s
tents
and have compassion on his dwellings;
the city will be rebuilt on her ruins,
and the palace will stand in its proper
place.”
(Jeremiah 30:18 NIV)
It was our
final handbell rehearsal before leading the worship service. One of the pieces tempted
me to cross one hand over the other to pick up a bell. I accidentally set the
bell down in the wrong place. Then I rang the wrong bell! Handbells, like most
things in life, must be kept in their proper place.
