Close to the shore of Spain, a German ship sank in a violent storm. A few days later some parts of the wreck and sailors’ clothes were washed ashore. In one of the jackets, a New Testament was found in which was written:
Markus Rotmann, Kolkwiese 12, Hamburg
Read the first time at my sister Lotte’s request.
Read the second time because of fear of God’s judgment.
Read the third time and all the other times because of love towards my Saviour Jesus Christ.
