Rugby

It is 9:08pm in South Africa. For the first time in my life, I am watching a Rugby game from its beginnning, probabably to its end. Perhaps it was peer pressure that I fianlly decided to watch the game. There are still so much for me to learn in order to fully understand the game. What I like about Rugby, particularly the world cup this year, is that it truely draws us all together as one people. Regardless of our differences, we all want our beautiful country to blossom, in the rugby filed and beyond. We get annoyed by our differences, yet in time like the Rugby world cup, it allows us to put aside our differences and focus on what makes us all proud to be South African. Tonight I can honestly say that I am "proudly South African".

The Secret

"Have you read The Secret?" Many people seem to be asking me this lately. Yes, I have watched the DVD. No I have not read the book. I wonder to myself, there is acutally no secret. Jesus has told us to choose life, not dead. A life that is abundant, with a promoise of all things we need for life and godliness; a life that will bear fruits and much fruits; a life that calls us to be the head and not the tail; a life that is like a city on the hill that cannot be hidden; a life that can bring light and salt to the world. There is no secret. He goes before us to level the mountains and open the gates of bronze and break the iron gates, to show us the riches in darkness and treasures in secret places. There is no secret! There is just a choice that has been laid before all of us. Choose life or dead.
