See Ya Champ!



This happens to be the season for people coming and going. Now it's time to (temporarily) say goodbye to Fungai. Wow it's weird to think that he is gonna be gone for six months. One topic of conversation before he left was about change and how things would have changed when he returns. Well, its sad and exciting for change to happen when you are away. It's sad because you are not directly involved in the change but it's excitng because it's good to return and see how people have grown and changed. Well, Fungai bra, many things might change when you are away but the love will always remain!

I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I wish you all the best in South Africa! I know you will do yourself and us, all your friends and family, proud! In God We Trust!!!

Aami Classic




This past weekend I did something that I've never done before... I watched tennis. Not only did I watch tennis. I watched it live. It was truly an awesome experience coz I also got the opportunity to see the best of the best.

Nicole blessed us; Keira, Simba, Fungai, Mufaro and I with free tickets. Her dad works at the club where the tournament was held. But not only were we blessed with free tickets but we has excellent seats. I think they are called court side seats. We watched two matches because it was the finals, the first one was Safin against Murray. Murray won that one, then we watched Federer battle Roddick! Wow! For someone who knows nothing about tennis I was totally rapped up in the game! Unfortunately Federer lost after I got a tip from a friend that he was the horse to bet on!

It was one of the best days I've had in a while! Thank you Nicole!

Thank You, 2006

Thank You Lord Jesus for 2006! It was truly Your year! You revealed yourself to me in such a powerful way that has left me changed forever! I praise You Lord for forgiving me for my rebellion and believing I can live life my way with You on the passenger side and not the driver. Thank you for your love and grace that I've felt totally surround me this past year! Thank You for providing for all my needs and always coming through when I most needed it, not only physically but emotinally and spiritually too! Thank You for all the advise You have given me, mostly through Your Word that is living!

Thank You for my family and friends that I have made in 2006, knowing that You are a relational God and that you are the one who has blessed me with these relationships, in order to fulfill Your plan. I appreciate them and value the influence that they had and will have in my life. Thank You for growth that has taken place in 2006 where now in 2007 I can look back and say that I really don't know that person that I used to be. Thank You for my body Lord, knowing that without you I would not have had the strength to lose 20 kilos and get closer to the totally perfect life You want for me! Thank You for the degree that You have blessed me with. It was a long road and i know that without You on my side and continuously quoting Jeremiah 33:3, things could have easily ended differently. You desearve all the praise because You are faithful to all Your servants!

Thank You Lord for all the things you have done for me behind the scenes. All the things that You have done without me even knowing! I know Your ways are mysterious and I thank You for having every single detail completlely coverved even the things I consider mundane.

Jesus thank You for 2007. I believe that this year will be bigger and better! I know that You will continue to do the thing you do that always sees Your plan come through! I pray that You may continue to guide me and bless me. I pray that Your wisdom and love will be my light! I pray that You may always be the centre of my life and that I may never go back to doing things in my own strength. Bless me with humility especially with all the great things that will happen this year. I will continue to praise Your name for who You are!!!
Amen.
