There is a story about an imaginary town called Is, which was swallowed up by the sea at some unknown time. There are several places along the coast which are pointed out as the site of this imaginary city, and fishermen have many strange tales to tell of it.

According to them, the tips of the spires of the churches may be seen in the hollow of the waves when the sea is rough, while during a calm the music of their bells, ringing out the hymn appropriate to the day, rises above the waters.

Likewise, among the submerged masses, deep down at the bottom of the ocean of human life, there are yearnings and desires for a better life, that ring out sadly and perpetually. As a pastor, it is our duty to listen for these, and where we notice them, to present the only answer, the love of God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
