Rembrandt’s Famous Painting Slashed

A few years ago, an angry man at the Rijks Museum in Amsterdam took out a knife and slashed the famous painting “Nightwatch” by Rembrandt. A short time later, a distraught, hostile man slipped into St. Peter’s Cathedral in Rome with a hammer and began to smash Michelangelo’s beautiful sculpture The Pieta. Two cherished works of art were severely damaged. But what did officials do? Throw them out and forget about them? Absolutely not! Using the best experts, who worked with the utmost care and precision, they made every effort to restore the treasures. By His sovereign grace, God can bring good out of our failures, and even out of our sins. (Source Unknown).
