I spent my time reading negative newspapers articles, listening to negative news and corrupted my heart with all the bad news, doom and gloom about the future of South Africa. At gatherings with friends and family, around a braai,…

What God did for me He can do for you too…
I greet you all in that wonderful name of our Saviour. Like so many others I know, I grew up in home where we went to church and Sunday school and did first Holy Communion and Confirmation. But that was not enough. Growing up we all long for a deeper relationship with God. At a…

A Wife’s Prayer
My name is Wilrien. I grew up in a loving, Christian home. I don’t recall a specific day that I gave my heart to the Lord, but I know that I have had a living relationship with the Father for as long as I can remember. At the age of 10 years, I had my…

My God Answers all my Prayers!
During our Disciple class we were asked to do a paraphrase of the Hymn of Faith found in Habakkuk 3:17-19. While writing the paraphrase, I realised that Estelle and I had just come through one of those almost unbearable situations and I decided to share it. So, the following is my testimony: Since my retirement…

God of the Impossible
Ever thought about the possibilities our God can open for you and me? Let me tell you what God did for my wife, Janice, and me recently. In our walk with Christ, we have experienced the intervention of God many times, even when we could never, ever imagine it to be possible. The story to…

God’s Grace
On Thursday, 4 February 2016 after supper, I said to my husband, Stephen, that I had some baking to do for our son, Rorisang. Stephen went to bed as I started baking. After washing up I went to bed too. At quarter to twelve the dogs’ howling woke me. Before I could quiet them down…

THE TUMOR WAS GONE! – Wian’s Miracle
Wian was born on 4 November 2003, a happy, healthy baby. During June 2014, shortly before his 11th birthday, he started complaining of headaches. As it gradually became worse, we blamed exam stress but on Sunday, the 15th, he could hardly walk. The pain was unbearable and his limbs were incapacitated. He was admitted to…
