Rajji was about sixteen years of age when she was brought from her native village to the Mission hospital to be treated for TB. From the first, her case appeared hopeless, yet her parents would not believe it.
However, Rajji herself seemed to wow that her life would not be long, Ind from her first day in the mission hospital she gave much attention to reading the Word of God, and she given joined in singing some of the hymns. It seemed so extraordinary in the part of a Hindu, so we inquired into her history.
When she was but a little girl, she had come in contact with some Christians and had learned something about Jesus, how that He is “the way, the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6). But at the age of thirteen, according to Hindu custom, she was married to heathen husband. All those three years that she lived with her husband, in her father-in-law’s house, she had never heard about Christ. However, Rajji was truly “born again,” divine life was in her, and she testified for Christ as her Saviour. One day she left earth with its sorrow and suffering behind forever, and went to that happy land to be with Jesus forever.
