THE KNOTS PRAYER Dear God, please untie the knots that are in my mind, my heart and my life. Remove the have nots , the can nots and the do nots that I have in my mind.

Hello all... Just a few pics to highlight the madness that was the challenge - (if you have seen the amazing race on SABC you'll have a slight idea...) no transport, little to no money, no transport, no sleeping place, 2 days, 24 tasks... And as for the mention of the chicken in the previous blog - above is proof that WE CAUGHT IT :) and just in case you were wondering... yes - Leo was delicious! :) The two days were only the beginning... We were thrown straight into Survivor... that's right - a double bill of...
A whole days travel brought us safely from Cambodia across the Thai border and spirts were high as we looked forward to spending time at the ocean...Nights 1 +2 in Trat, Thailand, saw not only time off, but sleep in beds AND an AIRCON before we set off on our faith journey... what a blessing! Afert 4 days of unpredictable excitement (see Buddah's Inn), we were ready to embrace our 2 week serving ministry on Koh Chang Island, the fact that we could now take a shower was also enticing :) Agian blesdsed with a day of rest at...

What an honour it is to be writing to you from the Himalaya Mountains... YES... you read right... the Himalaya Mountains in northern India is where we find ourselves at this present time.... In a cozy village called Shimla, a stone throw away from Nepal and on the opposite mountain face as China, we wake up to misty, chilly air, thinner to what we are used to... With an entire almost city carved into the side of the mountain, we wonder how it all still stands... We're staying in a hotel that has the most stupendous view of the surrounding...

YUM :) :) But I am READY... .... So since its 1.35am and I am yet to pack, I do believe 'tomorrow' has arrived a day early *mental distress signal initiated* but... nonetheless I shall mention some *fun facts* about India... (if you haven't caught on by now that would be our...
HOW do I describe a week (past 5 actually) that tossed and turned, uprooted and uplifted, shook and revolutionized my life... It's hard to explain the impact of the event to those who didnt experience it first hand, but I will try my best to do so without scaring anyone off... > My HISTORY is not my IDENTITY - may past is part of me but does not need to own me! We all make mistakes (and fall short of the glory of God - Rom 3:23) - but we can and are forgiven and can move on and...
