Firstly, the non significant event- I'd never thought I'd admit defeat, the day South Africa loses against Bangladesh. Every team is allowed a "hiccup" at ICC CWC 2007. Regardless of that slip, I still back Graeme and the Boys to bring the World Cup Home. Call me stupid, optimistic and uneducated. Still a lot of cricket left, South Africa beat the Windies, their in the semi's. I calculated the run rate. I stand by my team, My Country!
Now to the Unbelievable:
- Christ death on the Cross absolutely scandulous! God's grace is truly scandulous, as to why me of all people, as a sinner to be worthy of receiving His grace, for all the pain, humilation and death-Jesus had to endure.Scandulous I'll tell you!
- Met a South African Family who are taking my Granny back home at the end of the month. Local is altyd lekker. Hulle is ordenlike Kaapenaars. Memories of the Taxi (Wynberg! Wynberg!) reminded me of the good old days. Amongst other things I truly enjoyed the fellowship we all shared in Christ.
- Easter Sunday had a great lunch with parents friends. Again, a wonderful time in fellowship.
The biggest highlight of Easter Sunday was also listening to sermon on TV by Charles Price on the Ressurection of Christ, 1 Cor 15. A great sermon, outlining them importance and the significance of Jesus rising from the dead so that we may have everlasting life.
Though my pain has become unbearable (been suggested that I'd take an extremely strong pain killers) I will not. Firstly the side effects. Secondly, I'll soldier on with Christ depending on His strength. I could'nt care less about the fact that I have been unhealthy the entire year, "I want to know Christ more." Everyday, after reading his word I want to know Him more. Listening to Fevertree (S.A. rock band) hit "Beautiful" stresses my desire. "Lift me up/off my knees (x2)/ spin me round/turn me back/turn in me inside out/ Call my name/raise me up/Bring me close to You/ All You Are has become/ so much more to me/Cause You Beautiful/and I want you to know how I feel/Cause You Beautiful/Oh yes, You deserve all I am/Give me hope/ That I need/ to be more like you/ Lift my hands (x2)/ As I sing to you/ Cause You're Beautiful/and I want you to know how I feel/Cause You're Beautiful/Oh yes You deserve all I am/Call my name/raise me up/Bring me close to You/ All You Are has become/ so much more to me..."
Well this will be my final post for the month, finals are lurking from next week until the end of the month. Speak to ya then.
