Power of Prayer

The power of prayer

We don’t make an effort to kneel and praise the lord. At times we even tend to forget that his above all we do. I respect that each and everyone has their own views about prayer.

This picture is about a kid kneeling down praying with a tears falling on her chick. I mean when I was young I never understood what this picture meant, but it’s now that I’m older I look at it and get the concept of it. She is young and probably doesn’t understand what it is to kneel and pray. Meaning she was brought up from a family that is Christian oriented.
It touches my heart because this girl is young yet she still has the strength to kneel and pray.

At such an age she knows that you need to thank the Lord, or better yet praise him. She gives me hope and strength to also look up to God and jus call on his name despite what we going through. It’s a heartfelt picture I must say.

A Sister I Never Had..

KAREN MAOKOMATANDA!!!.

A sister I never had. I am the only girl in my family and I’m surrounded by boys in my family. The only person I had closer to a sister was and is my mum. But when I met Karen she is that other sister I never got to have.

We share the same character. We both hard headed. But I must say she takes the winning trophy of being a hard head. She is stubborn, when you try to advise her it’s as though it’s coming in one ear and going out the other ear. She will give you grief of simply telling her something she knows it’s true and is a strong fact.

She is understanding and is a rare breed. Karen brings the light in my darkest hours. She broke my heart when she asked if I could be her maid of honor on her wedding day. Not even my cousins have asked me to pose as such on their big days. But there is someone I met this year but we just automatically clicked.

So many of our mutual friends have always questioned how we got along so well and too soon. I don’t quite have an answer for them, but I can say she’s a person that understood who Yvonne is and what Yvonne is about. Something that is not quite simple but she took the time to learn who I am.

Family

Family oriented.

According to (Oxford) the term family means it consists of one of two parents and their children. But the means goes deeper than just that.
 

Family is beyond measure. Something everyone should be grateful of having. There are the people that will never turn their backs on you regardless the differences you might all have. The love they carry is imaginable. I come from a family that values the term family so much.
 

We can argue to the extent of not talking to each other but my parents always tell us that we can never function without one another. So yes you are allowed to be mad but don’t turn your anger to hatred because then we are not a family. When it comes to my family we have created a bond because we never used to be this close until we lost the first born. His death brought up a new birth to the family. And even though it broke our hearts we understand better what it means to be a family.
 

It is not the easiest responsibility to maintain a family but it is a job that each family member should take seriously. Because if effort is not made from each member then we do not get any yielding results that are positive. Family first before anything is our motto. Having a family that has your back at all times it’s truly a blessing. And for that people should always cherish that. It is a beautiful blessing that we should always be grateful for in life.

MUM

My best friend.

You are my best friend within a million miles away. She makes me wear a smile even in my stormy days. I love her to the moon and back. She’s a pillar of strength. A person I look up to each and every day of my life.

Sometimes she annoys me to the maximum and yet in that annoyance, she still finds a way to warm up my heart. A star that shines on me.

I am grateful of her being in my life each and every day. If it was not of her I would not exist on this place we call a world. We get on each other’s necks but still get back together. There are times when we can’t stand each other for more than two weeks. But best believe when we get back together there is a bubble of love that no one can quite understand.

A mother’s love is beyond measure. There is nothing more fulfilling that a mother’s love. They hold the house, they make everything make sense. I don’t know what I would do without her in my life.

It is not easy to lose a mother and for those that did lose their mothers I would lie if I was to say I can relate to how you feel, because I don’t. I cannot begin to imagine the pain you must be going through. But I do know that you hold a special place in your hearts for them.

She is my best friend. I can tell her everything. I must say we did not start off as best friends always thought she preferred my older brothers to me. And it always bothered me how she was close to them instead of me. I mean I am the only girl it made sense that her and I were meant to be super close.

Then I realized that I never made an effort to reach out to her. And the feeling was mutual from her end as well. Two people both feeling vulnerable working together to form an unbreakable bond. She is my world and I can say I’m more than grateful to know how much I mean to her as well. You are the best MUM.
