THE CHRISTMAS STORY - ANIMATED BY MIHAIL ALDASHIN ROZHDESTVO


UNITED NATIONS - WORLD'S PEACE KEEPING FORCE

There are hundreds of animations on YouTube available. And more so with the Christmas theme of Christ being born in Bethlehem.

One of the best I have seen is by this Russian artist Mikhail Aldashin Rozhdestvo - and I give him all the credit I can muster for his wonderful creative spirit and I ask you to join me enjoying his viewpoint by clicking on this link.

Of course you cannot watch this YouTube video without having read the story of the birth of Christ in the Scriptures at the Gospel according to Matthew at chapters 1 - 2, Luke chapter 1 and then about the peace the He brought into this world. Not the peace the world gives, but His peace which is materially different from the world's peace idea - please click on this link for the story in Matthew. You will see it starts off with a genealogy of Christ - I suggest that each one of us can relate to this list because each of us have some relatives that are not to be too proud about. Nevertheless, He was born into this world for me and for you. I have accepted Him as my Saviour and I trust that you have as well, alternative please consider making Him your King and Lord. If you have for some reason shrugged Him off your life, please consider inviting Him again.

May you have a blessed Christmas.

SIYA KOLISI - ALL IT TAKES IS ONE PERSON TO RESTORE HOPE

All it takes is one person to restore hope! Wow! Do you believe that? I do.

SIYA KOLISI - SPRINGBOK CAPTAIN 2019

This is the message I got from our South African Springbok Captain during 2019 - it was one teached in his school that got thru to Siya. And as Siya says: "You must say yes to God. And then things will happen to you." Listen to his story by clicking on this link.

He tells his story with such humility and honesty and that is striking. When he grew up in Port Elizabeth, all his childhood heroes were drug lords and other criminals. He saw his dad physically abusing his mother. He was taken under his grandmother's wing and when he was hungry she would give him sugar water to drink. After that he went to bed and "pissed" his bed; then granny would give him a hiding. When he went to a certain school he received socks and his very own bed. How proud he was of these things whereas other boys took it for granted. He said God chose him and he said yes to God. One person at a time in his life made all the difference.
