Baie dankie vir almal se besoeke, oproepe, smse, gebede en blomme toe ek in die hospitaal was!
Ek wil net die goeie nuus meedeel dat die histologie verslae op geen kwaadaardigheid dui nie!! Prys die Here!! Dis nou net ‘n kwessie van kalm en rustig wees tot die wond genees het!

Die seer….
Dis seer alweer
Die seer, dit sweer
U weet elke keer
Meer en meer maak dit seer
Leer my vergeet
Verbreek wat vreet
Die wraak dit kraak dit breek
U weet hoe swaar dit dra
U ken dit….help my dra
Maak my gewy wees meer en meer
Ek is by die huis, seer en ongemaklik. Die sit op hierdie stoel is nou nie van die gemaklikste nie!
Wil net se ek voel elke dag bietjie beter. Vrydag is D-dag: histologie uitslae, steke en clips word ook dan verwyder! Ek glo en vertrou dat daar geen probleme gaan wees nie!

Don’t be a quitter
One day I decided to quit…I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality… I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.
“God”, I said. “Can you give me one good reason not to quit?”
His answer surprised me… “Look around”, He said. “Do you see the fern and the bamboo?” “Yes”, I replied.
“When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them. I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.” He said, “In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit. In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would not quit.” “Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth.
Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant…But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle.” He said to me. “Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots?” “I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you.” “Don’t compare yourself to others.” He said. “The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern. Yet they both make the forest beautiful.” “Your time will come”, God said to me. “You will rise high”. “How high should I rise?” I asked. “How high will the bamboo rise?” He asked in return.
“As high as it can?” I questioned. “Yes.” He said, “Give me glory by rising as high as you can.”
I left the forest and bring back this story. I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you, so don’t you ever give up on God!! Don’t be a quitter!!!
Die laaste week of wat het ek regtig gevoel ek is ‘n quitter! Ek kon nie verstaan hoekom dinge is soos dit is nie! So baie dinge laat my moedeloos-moeg en nutteloos voel, maar dankie Maureen, ek weet hierdie keer sou Elme my vir my gese het dat ek nie ‘n quitter is nie! Al sien en ervaar ek aanslae.
Ek word Dinsdag opgeneem vir chirurgie…. ek moet erken ek is nogal senuweeagtig, seker omdat Kobus in Oostenryk is tot Sondag! Ek bid, glo en vertrou met my hele hart dat daar geen kwaadaardigheid sal wees nie!
Dan wonder ek, hoekom moet mens (gewoonlik vrouens) goeters he waar daar soveel mee kan verkeerd gaan en waar daar ander goeters op kan groei! Is dit nie genoeg dat die flippen vet so groei nie!
Liefies, tot ek weer hier kan sit! Die res van die tyd tot dan is dol!
A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband. For many
months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom, and knowing
her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she wanted. As her
birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband had
purchased the diamond ring.
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his
studyroom. Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife,
and told her how much he loved her. He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift
box. Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound
Bible, with the wife’s name embossed in gold. Angrily, she raised her
voice to her husband and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible?” and
stormed out of the house, leaving her husband. Many years passed and the
married lady was very successful in business.
She managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she should go to
visit him. She had not seen him for many years. But before she could make
arrangements, she received a telegram telling her that her ex-husband had
passed away, and willed all of his possessions to her. She needed to come
back immediately and take care of things.
When she arrived at her ex-husband’s house, sudden sadness and regret
filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband’s important papers
and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it years ago.
With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her
ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11 , ” And if you, being evil ,
know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Heavenly
Father which is in heaven, give to those who ask Him?” As she read those
words, a tiny package dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a diamond
ring with her name engraved on it, the same diamond ring which she saw at
the showroom. On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words…’LUV U
ALWAYS’…
How many times do we miss God’s blessings because they are not packaged as
we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by
desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once
among the things you only hoped for…
IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKED THE WAY YOU WANT IT, IT’S BECAUSE IT IS
BETTER PACKED THAT WAY! ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS…..

Waar staan ek geestelik volgende jaar die tyd of waar sien ek myself?
Om die Here, my God met my HELE hart lief te he en onverskrokke te glo en te vertrou, met Hemelse verwagtings. Om geestelik so baie te groei, dat ek werklik in lyn is met God se wil en plan vir my lewe. Om God se liefde en genade waardig te wees, sodat Hy oor my sal glimlag. Om God in elke omstandigheid te gehoorsaam en myself te onderwerp aan Sy gesag. Om Vader God in gees en waarheid te aanbid. Om sensitief te wees vir die insprake van die Heilige Gees en om my beskikbaar en bereidwillig te stel om God alleen te dien en te verheerlik. Om waarlik die sout van die aarde te wees wat ‘n lieflike geur versprei. Om ‘n goddelike verskil te maak en dat mense my teenwoordigheid, met Jesus in my, sal geniet en onweerstaanbaar vind. Om mense toe te laat om net hulself te wees en nie op te hou om goed te doen nie. Ek wil he mense moet Jesus se liefde, sagtheid, aanvaarding - Sy alles, in my sien en ervaar. Om altyd te bemoedig, te dien en te luister, sonder enige voorwaardes. Om die mooi in elke indiwidu uit te bring en om werklik goddelike invloed uit te oefen. Dat mense Jesus in my oe, my glimlag en in my stem sal ervaar en dat dit lewe geskep het.
Om elke Woord, elke Skrif in die Bybel te verstaan, te memoriseer en te leef en dat ek sal besef wat God vir my daardeur wil se en wys. Om God se Woord te verslind!
Om myself lief te he soos my medemens. Om los te kom van verganklike dinge en om dinge na te streef met ewigheidswaarde.
