I went to Phakalane Church fundraiser this afternoon. There were not that many people but P69, 000 was raised which is amazing given there were less than 20 people there. Yes, some people sent through their contributions, but P69K was impressive.
The Pastor read from Psalms 46. He read a couple of verses:
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
|
|
| Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof |
|
| The highlight was in verse 10: Be still, and know that I am God!!! | |

| The way he explained it was that Be still in the original language means to relax, not to fret. Whatever you may be facing, whatever might be going on in your life, regardless of how big or hopeless it may seem, God is in control. Don't try to help him, after all, He is GOD!! Just stand still and let him carry you through it. It was inspiring to me because I fret and stress about even the little things and end up not enjoying the life that God has blessed me with. | | |
