Creativity

Many peoples said everything happens for a reason but something you don’t get the reason whay they are happening in our lives. I was sad that I haven’t seen my grandmother for four months. Because of lack of finance, nevertheless I receive a blessed to go and visit my grandmother. I was so excited to see her. Without knowing that my visit it will be a drama.  When I go there my grandfather was so happy to see me. On the other hand my grandmother she’s mad that I didn’t bring any food for her. She went on saying I should stop working with Ten Thousands Homes and go find a paying job. “You don’t even have a house” I said I don’t need a house now. What hurts the most was that she said “It would be better is Louise was her than you” Louise is my first brother. She loves my brother so much because he does manage to buy food for her. I do want to provide for her to. Tell me how I may going to do that when I get R800 per month R450 for rent and the rest is for food, transportation and internet. I know she raised me and I haven’t forget what she has done for me. But with R350 what can I do? I know also what the word of God is saying 1Timothy 5:8 “But if anyone does not take care of his relatives, especially the members of his own family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever” so I will keep visiting my grandmother even though I don’t have food for her. I don’t want her to love because I will buy food for her.

God created the word creatively so I do believe that He did pass on His creativity in us, I used a dead flower plant to create an, emerge of and elephant.

In addition, I saw a bush at the property and I thought something beautiful could come out of the bush.  The workers and I worked so hard tiring down the bush. It was a hard work, our bodies where in pains. However, we did manage to finish what we started. Now it will be a place of relaxing and enjoying the song of the birds surrounded with many different flowers.
It use to look like this before

now it looks like this

In the bible study things has change I see growth in the youth’s lives many came up with many ideas on how can we grow more. Now is not called a bible study anymore is called bring and share. And youth wanted to preach I gave the them the opportunity to preach, but I know that I am not a preacher I am teacher so my role is to model the program.

When, I use to work at home at Masoyi Home Base Care. One thing that uses to excite is to organise events.  June is a youth month in South Africa, the church they asked me to be the organiser of the youth so I organise a soccer event. Whereby I invited many churches to come and be part of the changed that, we want to see in the church and the community. Two churches came and the purpose of the event was to build relationship with other churches and with other youth. In addition, other was to do fundraising for the youth.  The boys from the church responded and many came to play soccer. Nevertheless, we wanted to be an example to other youth that you can find fun in the church.

After the soccer event, I went home and my heart trilled with lots of JOY. Then I thought many boys in the community don’t love soccer. So why I don’t start a soccer ministry to rich out to the boys because it seems like the like one thing the most. They don’t come to church, bible study and in the youth service. So I want to preach the Gospel through sports, I am excited about this I spoke to the pastor and he gave a blessing to go ahead on starting this. I just want to be simple and be an example to many in the country. I am planning to do, youth soccer camps, soccer outreaches, and many soccer events. I don’t know where this might end but I am so excited about this. But I will need help, we need soccer balls, soccer jerseys, socks, and soccer boats. If you are reading this and you want to help, it doesn’t have to be money, I open for suggestions and encouragement about this soccer ministry.

I am going to a youth church conference for the week.

Prayer request: Guidance in my new crazy soccer ministry

Life has many signs, growing up didn’t ever thought that I will be a leader amongst leaders in the community. A friend of mine, once said, “Grow towards the Light and you will see” I have seen so many things since I have been growing towards the Light of Christ. I am whom I am because of Jesus and all the good people who played a good role, empowering and taught me how to Love like Christ and to care for others.  I have been running the race for so long and I will keep on running because I have not rich my destiny yet.

It has been a great month so far, working at campus, doing ministry in the community and furthermore I went to Swaziland.

What I have been doing in the campus is help the guys with the campus maintenance  and it is a good start to know each other more and talk more about God. I think it is easy as a missionary to think that I to share Christ with the people out there. Therefore, whenever you are is so important to make the effort to tell those you work with about the lovely father Jesus.

At the feeding, I do help cutting vegies and is not about chopping the veggies...it’s about preparing something for someone to provide nutrition and sharing life with the volunteers. Sometimes I get the opportunity to share what God is doing in my life and how He can change theirs too.  Feeding a hungry kid is a changed to say, “You matter” and your voice matter and you are valuable to me and to God. Play, teaching and encouraging the children and the youth during the feeding is a life changing moments.  

I went to Swaziland for a week with Keri and the photogenic. The youth from the community help on knitting blankets and the team helped with making a video. We went to help a couple who are taking care of 11 kids. One day I walk the kids to school, which it took an hour in the mountain it was like hiking.  I also helped with gardening; It was always in my heart to have people outside South Africa that I can partner with. Now the family asked me if I could help with a youth program. Hope one day, I will send the youth from the church on an outreach there. There is more to do there.

I am still helping with campus maintenance and what I have been doing with the workers is spending time with them. Working together, helping one another. I see that as an opportunity to share the Gospel. Is easy in life to think people who need to hear about Jesus are the one who are out there and forget about the people that God brought into your work place. Have you; ever tell your workmate or your employee about the love of Jesus? As the TTH family is pouring to me, I have to pour into somebody to.

I believe that there is no limit in building HOPE and disciple. Because lives are, transformed when you are willing to give what you have and learned. In order do this very well in still need lots of encouragement and support.

One day I had the opportunity to lead the youth service in the church. I decided to do things in a different way. I asked the youth to be creative and make cards for the children who come to the feeding. During the creativity, we were praying for every kid.  The youth loved it and they engaged on it and asked me to do it again or come up with something different. h

Prayer request: is that you pray and ask God to give you a word for me

Thank you for all your support
