Helo, Its me again

I just realised something.....I SUCK at blogging!!Yeah SHOCKING I know..Haha!Its just that things tend to get so crazy that by the time I want to sit down and majestically pour out my thoughts and experiences my awesome mind is just too tired so my sincere apologies for being a sucky blogger..

These past few weeks have gone by in a blur and I'm struggling to remember exactly what happened when and where. I know for a fact that we have been doing some extensive traveling to various youth groups around Gauteng province as well as KZN presenting missions and challenging young people to be more pro-active in God's plan for the world. Its been extremely fruitful. God just has this way of using us that exact moments when we feel unusable( don't know if that is correct English but you get the point). Its been an amazing journey thus far with ups and downs and random turns all the way but I'm enjoying every moment of it. Life in the township is AMAZING!!!I love the vibe, the people and the culture here. Yeah sure Pretoria, and Mamelodi, is not as beautiful as Cape Town or Paarl by any stretch of the imagination but quite frankly I haven't missed home that much. Weird huh..Its just that I have solid peace that I'm at the right place at the right time doing the right thing which God has set out for me to do during this season of my life. 

It does get hard though. At times I feel like ripping someones throat out. It gets difficult when you live with the people you work with, yet God has a funny way of letting things work out though. 

So ministry wise quick update:

1. Been doing quite a few youth services like I said. All in all AMAZING times connecting with young people of different caliber and backgrounds (socio-economical and ethnic)
2. KZN partnership weekend, connecting with churches, building contacts and hanging with ex- OM buddies, playing day and night cricket with some Pakistani guys and giving a bit of hope to a homeless boy (given) made for one memorable weekend
3. I am helping out at our aidshope center with their after-school program. I have my own little class with five amazing kids, Thabang, Neyo, Lesedi, Ntebatse and Nqobile. Please keep them in your prayers
4. We just came back from a week long camp called "Africa Youth camp' where me and the team served as leaders. It was one amazing week!!!

Please pray for me for strength as I am feeling very weak but I don't regret it for I know that in my weakness He is strong

KIA KAHA!!!!
(Thanks for the catch phrase Thomas!)
