Happy Birthday Mommy - 68 years young today!!



Your 68 years young today

A beautiful and gracious lady mommy, at your age you have seen and lived through so much.  God has blessed you with two daughters and a son and seven grandchildren, two great grandchildren.  Awesome!  What a crown to wear around your head knowing that you have been able to see your great grandchildren.


Facing each day as it comes along keeping your head up and working through your own problems, checking on your children and their children.  Listening to all the complaints and giving good advice.  A well balanced life with loads of fun and laughter, you are so blessed mommy.

This year wasn’t easy for any of us and we have made it this far, how great it is to know you are able to face another year with all of us.  We absolutely love and adore you, you have so much going for you and we know God is in control keeping you healthy and looking out for your every day.

My sister is a star, she looks after our mother very nicely, without her help I am sure life would have turned out really badly for mommy.  Zelda you are really a pillar of support to mommy and oom Frik.  Without you their lives would be a disaster, praise the Lord that you have such a generous heart and that you are always looking for ways to help and support them.

God will provide according to your needs and He will bless you richly Zelda, thank you so much.

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

The View from the Sycamore Tree

"Ill-gotten treasures have no lasting value, but righteousness delivers from death. The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." Proverbs 10:2–10 Reflection The Turning Point: I used to think that by this stage of my life. The path was already set in stone. I looked at the mirror and saw the silver hair and the lines of age. I felt as though I was simply watching the clock run out on my dreams. I’ve spent years in the "midlife crisis." Wrestling with the ghosts of regrets, careers that didn't flourish, relationships that felt the strain of time. The nagging fear of being "less than" in a world that prises youth and worldly success. But then I saw Zacchaeus. He was a man who had spent his life traveling in the wrong direction. Chasing "ill-gotten treasures" that left his soul hungry. When he climbed that tree, he wasn't just trying t...
