Remembering baby Adam




One day a little angel upstart
From heaven jumped
And landed
Slap bang right in my heart.

Guided by the light of the moon
Into the world
Came little Adam
So sadly - to depart too soon.

Listening to your sobbing breath
I whispered prayers
And messages from mommy
And spoke of love until your death.

After your brief sojourn
We bade you farewell
Our hearts racked with pain
Always our little angel to mourn.

GOD IS NOT SURPRISED

The irretrievable loss of credibility on the part of the Nobel Prize committee is indicative of the times; there is no more truth.

A prize is awarded to someone who has done nothing, in fact has not even participated in a process of peace, that for which the prize is offered!

Yet, one who has participated and has shed real blood, sweat and tears and by endurance despite pain, has started the process of peaceable change; is passed over. And so is the way of the world.

Two mortal enemies currently engaged in conflict, finding the time to unite and in chorus proclaim their surprise at this ridiculous situation, further illustrate the sheer stupidity of the selectors.

Take heart, Morgan, Nobel has lost its credibility but you haven’t. Persevere and keep striving for peace and great will be your reward. The world has never recognized sacrifice and truth and so with another who was persecuted and reviled, you are in good company.

The world may not recognize you but I for one laud you for the good values you consistently show and ultimately each of us will be judged according to the truth.

Nail your colours to the mast

Nail your colours to the mast & proclaim the Glory of the Lord.
Our God is being rejected and sacrificed on the altar of self; “because you’re worth it”. I know for a fact for a number of years now, that few dare speak the name of Jesus, or talk about God in England because of immediate repercussion and it has deteriorated to the point of legislation having been passed to the effect that such speak is offensive and punishable by law.
It is unfortunate that there is little unity amongst Christians and because of this the same thing will happen right here under our noses in South Africa – the wheels have already started turning. No need to remind anyone about the lukewarm prediction in Revelation?
Case in point would be the endless problems encountered by Radio Pulpit each year in just getting their license renewed by ICASA; not to even mention the point blank refusal to allow for any growth. Not so the case with secular radio stations and most certainly will not be the case when the ANCYL apply for their own radio station!!
Not one of us can claim ignorance because we have been warned….. 2 Tim 3:2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy……
Throughout the Word, God clearly states that He does not need us to fight any battles for him, so this is not the issue here. However, we are to stand in awe of our God and we are to acknowledge him:
Luke 12:8 "I tell you, whoever acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man will also acknowledge him before the angels of God.
One sorely lacking quality amongst Christians is that of UNITY and if left unchecked, it will still lead to our downfall. Now since we are able to do something about that, let us stand together and demand our legal right to our religious freedom. In the words of Henry Ford: “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.”
Now is the time for all real Christians to come out of the woodwork and declare our uncompromised support for the Lord our God and also the license application of Radio Pulpit.
Wake-up – get hot or get spat out.
Some plans of action:
Lodge emails:
To ICASA in support of a broadcasting licence & use of an AM transmitter for Radio Pulpit in the Western Cape info@icasa.org.za
Call up all fellow Christians to take a stand
Claim our freedom of religion by lodging complaints to the Presidential Hotline at the toll-free number 17737.
Write to the editors of newspapers and/or magazines and get the conversation going.
Approach talk show radio stations to do shows on the persecution of Christianity & partake in these or call in yourself and start the subject.

I prayerfully ask that God let each reader move into action as the Holy Spirit leads & guides each one of us.
